    Getting Started With Gopher Using burrow

    + +

    To create a gopher hole on tilde.institute, a user can easily get started +by doing the following:

    + +

    1) Create the gopher directory

    + +
    $ mkdir public_gopher
    + +

    2) Create a root gophermap

    + +
    $ burrow gophermap
    + +

    Gophernicus will interpret any text you add here as information +lines unless they begin with one of gophernicus' special characters +or contains a tab. As a general rule, don't use tabs unless you're +intentionally linking something.

    + +

    Add a cool header to the file (check out figlet!), then somewhere near the top, paste:

    + +
    ==== Last Updated: February 19th, 2019 ====
    + +

    The date doesn't matter, really. Whenever you "phlog" with burrow it will +update the date for you. How sweet is that?

    + +

    Now lets add a link to your phlog that you're totally going to have:

    + +
    1phlog[tab]phlog
    + +

    That [tab] should be a literal tab, though. Make sure your editor doesn't +convert it to spaces. Now, save and quit the editor.

    + +

    3) Create a phlog directory

    + +
    $ mkdir ~/public_gopher/phlog
    + +

    4) Now create a new phlog with burrow

    + +
    $ burrow phlog
    + +

    You'll be prompted for a title. If you hit enter and give no title then +burrow will abort.

    + +

    Once you hit enter after giving your title a temporary file will open in +your default $EDITOR. Don't like that editor? Be sure to change your +environment var!

    + +

    If you quit your phlog file without saving the post is aborted. If you +save and quit, it will create a new phlog entry, add it to your phlog +gophermap that now exists, and update the date on your root gophermap. +That's it!

    + +

    You have an RSS file sitting in the root of your gopher hole at rss.xml. +It will automatically generate when you phlog, like a winner. You can edit +your root gophermap at any time by using burrow's gophermap action. If you +create other folders and gophermaps in the future you can use burrow's +gophermap function to target them. For instance, to open the phlog +listings you would:

    + +
    $ burrow gophermap /phlog
    + +

    Editing gophermaps with burrow will ensure they're always saved and +formatted properly! Any other files are just text, so open them directly with your editor of +choice.

    + +

    That's it! Happy gophering.

    + +
