I took inspiration from the repository https://github.com/DuncanMcArdle/tamagotchi-cli/tree/master.
The Tamagotchi CLI application is a command-line driven version of the classic Tamagotchi game. Players will attempt to grow an alien Tamagotchi from birth to death, whilst feeding, resting, healing and cleaning up after it along the way.
Automatic installation is not available yet so you need to manually install it:
Find and download the latest binary for your os from the release page. Extract the executable from the archive and move the executable to a folder that is included in your $PATH
. This will let you call the tamaowlchi
command from everywhere (you may need to re-open your terminal first).
Edit your .zshrc
, .bashrc
or .profile
to include the following line:
tamaowlchi status
This will give you news about your tamaowlchi every time you open a new terminal and prevent you for forgetting him.
Start by creating a new tamaowlchi using tamaowlchi new
, then you can run tamaowlchi status
to see how it goes. If your tamaowlchi die, you can create another one with the same tamaowlchi new
command.
Available commands to take care of your tamaowlchi are:
~$ tamaowlchi --help
Usage: tamaowlchi <COMMAND>
Commands:
new Create a new tamaowlchi. Only if you don't have any tamaowlchi alive
clean Remove all your tamaowlchi poops
feed Restore the food of your tamaowlchi to 50
heal Restore the heal of your tamaowlchi to 50
sleep Put your tamaowlchi to bed
wake Wake up your tamaowlchi
status Get your tamaowlchi status
help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
Options:
-h, --help Print help
-V, --version Print version
