gcli 0.2 Released
October 23, 2005
gcli (Google Command Line Interface) is a tool I started working on as part of my "Google-Driven Web Development" tutorial. I released 0.1 just after doing the tutorial for the first time at LinuxWorld San Francisco in August. This update comes as I prepare for LISA 05. I feel very much like gcli is still at an infant's stage, but I think it's far enough along that you can get the idea.
This new version has a much improved install process using a setup.py script. You now have to create a .gcli directory in your home directory to house you Google developer's key and an optional config file (for changing gcli defaults.) I've also further seperated the gcli command line code from the libgcli library, which should make life easier for anyone wanting to build their own program around this code.
To try this 0.2 version of gcli, get the gcli-0.2 tarball. See the README for a brief overview of the libgcli interface. See the INSTALL file for using the setup.py script. I hope to have this site updated with some propoer documentation before the end of the year.
