Add homebrew installation

Hey,

This looks great!

Would you be able to add a homebrew distribution for OS X?

TypeError

$ how2 python request headers

Cannot fetch answers from Stackoverflow.
TypeError: Cannot read property 'body_markdown' of undefined

add "--engine google/bing" option

Firstly google api has rate limits.
Secondly google search is unavailable in some part of the world.

How come Windows never gets any love?

Implement voting

It'd be good to allow voting on questions and answers from this.

Change default language

It would be nice to either read the user's default shell, or read a dotfile in the ~ or ~/.config/how2 directory to to set default language.

I use the fish shell, so will never use the default language of Bash for how2.

Currently I've set an alias in my shell.

Add proper credit to XKCD to comply with their license

In the interest of proper credit, should probably add a link and credit to the XKCD comic used here

Direct link to comic: https://xkcd.com/1168/

XKCD also provides a link for hotlinking/embedding which with attribution would be even better than just linking: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/tar.png

Include a link to the answer

By default, answers provided by how2 come from Stack Overflow, which has an attribution policy. It's pretty typical to include a comment with a link to the SO answer when using code, so it would be good to include the answer link in the output.

I hacked together a patch that adds the link to both the initial display and the menu selection. I'd be happy to submit a pull request if that would be desirable.

(Disclosure: I work as a Community Manager for Stack Overflow.)

TypeError: Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined

I'm not able to make any search, I'm getting this error:

OS: MacOSX
Node: v7.0.0
NPM: 4.0.1

Cannot connect to Google.

Error while trying to search for a query:

|(node:21174) DeprecationWarning: process.EventEmitter is deprecated. Use require('events') instead. |Cannot connect to Google. Error: Error on response:Error: socket hang up : undefined

OS: Ubuntu 16.04
Node version: v6.3.1
npm version: 3.10.3
how2 version: 1.1.0

`later` in 'updates.js' uses string comparison instead of int comparison.

https://github.com/santinic/how2/blob/master/lib/updates.js#L9-L17

 function later(a, b) {
        var as = a.split('.');
        var bs = b.split('.');
        for(var i=0; i<3; i++) {
            if(as[i] > bs[i])
                return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
later('1.0.9','1.0.10')

This returns true, as the string '9' is later lexicographically than the string '10'.

This can be resolved using semver as can be seen here.

If this seems right, I could make the changes with a PR.

Error: tunneling socket could not be established, cause=socket hang up : undefined

I have to use a http proxy to connect to Google.
I get an error:

Cannot connect to Google.
Error: Error on response:Error: tunneling socket could not be established, cause=socket hang up : undefined

Any idea please?

Google certificate issue when use inside company firewall

Is there a way to use http instead of https from google? I tried -k or --skip-ssl-validation but still got error:

Cannot connect to Google.
Error: Error on response:Error: unable to get local issuer certificate : undefined

When I disconnect from my company VPN, it's fine.

Replace Google's API

Google is a known privacy violator and PRISM-contributor. It would be nice to have this search go through DuckDuckGo or (ideally if possible) searx.

link to alternatives?

just a nice thought but I've included links to how2 and another tool in the docs for emacs-sos: https://github.com/omouse/emacs-sos#alternatives-to-sos-mode

not sure if you want to include links to emacs-sos or sx.el or other tools or libraries for using stackoverflow through a command-line or text editor.

Linux can't handle --no-deprecation argument in shebang.

The entire string following the interpreter name is passed as a single argument to the interpreter.

Apparently there is no good solution for this yet.

My favorite workaround looks like this in my .bashrc:

alias how2='/usr/bin/env node --no-deprecation "$(which how2)"'

Can't select text in "more choices" screens

Using iTerm, trying to select text with the mouse.

Google rate limit kicking in

While issuing a query, the app failed with the following error:

⭐  how2 -l android launch activity in new task                                                      
-You are doing too many requests to Google. You need to wait a bit before trying again.`

If the app is using an API key shared across all users, it might be hitting a rate limit earlier than expected?

Hotkey: `O` to "open" a list item (Same as `Enter`/`l`)

Since you use j/k for movement, and q to "go back", I was expecting o to open the selected item in a list. I later discovered that the l key does the same, but for some reason my fingers wanted o to open the list item. Perhaps user configurable hotkeys would be nice? Or at least mention hotkeys in --help or in the readme?

The name of the terminal window switches to how2 and never goes back

If I press space, the name of the terminal switches to how2 and never goes back.

Cannot read property '1' of null

To reproduce (with or without quotes):

TypeError: Cannot read property '1' of null

Implement text wrapping

Words get chopped off midway. Why not wrap at 80 columns or whatever the current width of the terminal?

System package management

This is really nifty, but there's no way I would ever use sudo and let npm write to files and directories reserved for a real system-wide package manager. If however, it was available as an apt package, RPM, or ebuild, then adoption is more likely.

Support for Cygwin/Babun

ANSI colors not working
TypeError: undefined is not a function, see attached screenshot. Maybe TooTallNate/keypress#19 is related.

Im using Babun v1.2.0, Node v0.12.2 on Windows 10

Is possible to configure a proxy?

Gives error on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

I'm getting this:

/usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory

I installed it as instructed in your readme.

Integration with Emacs and vim?

Is there any possibility to integrate with IDE or other text editors?

Thanks!!!

How to uninstall how2?

I used npm to uninstall but failed.
$ npm uninstall how2
npm WARN ENOENT ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/JonyMac/package.json'
npm WARN EPACKAGEJSON JonyMac No description
npm WARN EPACKAGEJSON JonyMac No repository field.
npm WARN EPACKAGEJSON JonyMac No README data

So how to remove how2 and its all dependencies？
Thanks.

Undocumented "-i" option

In lib\index.js

if(argv.i) {
    how2.main(text, argv.l);
}
else {
    how2.magic(text, argv.l);
}

What's the purpose of -i? it's undocumented.
Should it be removed (along with how2.magic) or Added to readme.md and help?

None of the answers I got make sense

How does how2 resolve search queries? Here is what I searched (just to give it a spin)

Q: $how2 scala read file
A: bash - Command substitution in for loop not working

Q: $how2 android launch activity in new task
A: bash - When I run ./command.sh & the background task is ...

Q: $how2 how to use how2
A: software installation - how to install .git file?

Love the premise of the project, but its answers are completely off.

TypeError: process.stdin.setRawMode is not a function

"Cannot fetch answers from Stackoverflow.
TypeError: process.stdin.setRawMode is not a function."

This message occurs every time I use the command how2.
I'm using windows 10 and using Git Bash command line.

Kind regards,

Not handling <kdb> balisa.

To reproduce :

how2 -l vi indent multiple lines quicly

Use the <kbd>></kbd> command. To indent 5 lines, <kbd>5</kbd><kbd>></kbd><kbd>></kbd>. To mark a block of lines and indent it, <kbd>V</kbd><kbd>j</kbd><kbd>j</kbd><kbd>></kbd> to indent 3 lines (vim only). To indent a curly-braces block, put your cursor on one of the curly braces and use <kbd>></kbd><kbd>%</kbd>.
....

It's really cumbersome to read but I don't know how it should be displayed on the cli.
Can a background color do the trick ?

Add option to search for what was typed in instead of Google's "correction"

Google auto"corrects" some searches. Could you implement a workaround?

Unable to Copy the Code

Make LICENSE DFSG compatible

Hi,

i think license of this software is not DFSG compatible (https://people.debian.org/~bap/dfsg-faq.html + https://www.debian.org/social_contract.html#guidelines). I want to package it for Debian, but because of license I can't.

Can you consider changing license to any of:

please?

Thanks.

"SyntaxError: Unexpected token <" when pressing space

Does how2 require a min version of node?

I did how2 scp from remote, and then pressed Space:

$how2 scp from remote
scp - How to copy a file from remote server to local machine?

The syntax for scp is:

If you are on the computer from which you want to send file to a remote computer:


   scp /file/to/send username@remote:/where/to/put

Here the remote can be a FQDN or an IP address.

On the other hand if you are on the computer wanting to receive file from a remote computer:


   scp username@remote:/file/to/send /where/to/put

scp can also send files between two remote hosts:


   scp username@remote_1:/file/to/send username@remote_2:/where/to/put

So the basic syntax is:


   scp username@source:/location/to/file username@destination:/where/to/put

You can read man scp (http://linux.die.net/man/1/scp) to get more idea on this.

Tag releases

Hi,

can you use (ideally signed) tags for every release? This makes package maintainers life easier.

Thank you.

Feature Request: Local Preferences

For nearly any issue of importance, there will be several answers. I would like the option to select my preference for a particular answer and be shown that answer automatically instead of the others for a particular query. This could be accomplished by storing a dictionary of queries with the preference value, or by tagging a priority number to the hash of the answer urls (treating untagged as a lower priority), each time an answer is marked up by me, it would increment the priority by 1 thus increasing the visibility of the answer in future queries.
