Destinations:

• ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages for the package
• ~/.local/bin/ for executables.

In a virtual environment, for testing

Using virtualenv, from the project base directory

virtualenv2 env
source env/bin/activate
python setup.py install

Destinations:

• ./env/lib/python2.7/site-packages for the package
• ./env/bin/ for executables.

Execution

If the exectutables directory is in $PATH, just execute it with:

hookiifier --user admin --pass xxx

                        file with timestamp of last run
--deltat DELTAT       chunk size for db querying, in days
--force               also render closed posts
--today               render only posts from last day
--loglevel {CRITICAL,ERROR,WARNING,INFO,DEBUG,NOTSET}
--version             show program's version number and exit

Functioning

hookifiier now works incrementally, rendering only posts with new comments from the last execution. The timestamp is saved by default in /tmp/hookiifier-last-run, but the file can be specified with --last-run-file parameter.

If the file can't be read, all posts are rendered. In this mode the database is queried in chunks to avoid keeping all the content in memory. The default chunk size is 30 days, meaning that one query retrives posts created in a time span of 30 days, and can be changed with --deltat (in days).
