This project is inspired by [fedora-easy-karma][f-e-k], but with more features.
[f-e-k]: https://pagure.io/fedora-easy-karma
It allows submitting feedback for bugs and test cases in addition to providing a
comment and karma.
[bodhi-issue]: https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi/issues/3888
By default, all updates in `testing` or `pending` state that the user has not
submitted themselves or has already commented on are presented, sorted by
ascending submission date (so, oldest to most recent update).
### requirements
The program assumes that the `dnf` and `rpm` binaries are present on the system
(which is probably a reasonable assumption for a CLI tool targeted at fedora
users).
It also expects a config file at `~/.config/fedora.toml`, with at least the
following contents:
```toml
[FAS]
username = "USERNAME"
```
This value is used to filter out updates that the user themselves has submitted,
or has already commented on.
### installation
To compile the program, first install `cargo` (the build tool, also pulls in
the Rust compiler) and `openssl-devel` (used by the OpenSSL rust bindings).
To download, build, and install the latest version from <https://crates.io>,
just run `cargo install fedora-update-feedback`.
To build from the sources provided on GitHub, download the sources
(recommended: tarball of the latest release from GitHub), and easily build
and install the binary for yourself by running `cargo install --path .` in
the source directory.
Either way, `cargo` will install the binary into `~/.cargo/bin` by default.
To make it available in `$PATH`, either copy it into `$HOME/.local/bin`, or add
`~/.cargo/bin` to your `$PATH` (probably by editing `~/.bash_profile`).
### TODO
- As mentioned above, submitting bug and testcase feedback is implemented (but
hidden behind a compilation flag), but blocked by a bodhi server issue (or me
being stupid).
- I'd like to improve the "visual quality" of the terminal output and
pretty-printed data, which should be easy.
- It would be great to add additional switches and arguments to the binary (for
example, sorting updates by a different value than submission date).
- Ignoring certain updates or packages is not yet implemented.
