| All deps for below commands: | |
| brew install curl jq youtube-dl mplayer | |
| For this example you must install jq and curl if not present. Both should be in your favorite package manager. | |
| Random quote: | |
| curl -s https://howmuchisthe.fish/json/random | jq -r '.quote.text' | |
| Daily quote: | |
| curl -s https://howmuchisthe.fish/json/daily | jq -r '.quote.text' | |
| Or spice things op with cowsay: | |
| curl -s https://howmuchisthe.fish/json/daily | jq -r '.quote.text' | cowsay | |
| Or if you want to get all funky, throw it in aalib/aview: | |
| curl -s `curl -s https://howmuchisthe.fish/json/daily | jq -r '.quote.album_cover'` | convert fd:0 pnm:- | aview | |
| Install youtube-dl and mplayer and have some fun with this command: | |
| youtube-dl -q -o- $(curl -s 'https://howmuchisthe.fish/json/random/video' | jq -r '.quote.videos[0].link') | mplayer -cache 8192 - |
