nimisewi

nimisewi is a small program that outputs random toki pona phrase. toki pona is a small conlang created by sonja lang.

first implementation was created using python, but then i decided to create more portable version.

dependencies

cmake (>=3.10)

installation

installation is very straightforward:

$ fsl clone https://fsl.aaoth.xyz/nimisewi.c
$ cd nimisewi
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ cmake --build .
$ doas make install

compilation options

BUILD_CGI -- compile nimisewi.cgi, a cgi version of nimisewi (default OFF).

see example.
CGIINSTALLDIR -- installation directory for nimisewi.cgi (default "$PREFIX/var/www/htdocs/cgi-bin").
BUILDGEMINICGI -- compile nimisewi_gemini.cgi, a cgi script for gemini protocol (default OFF).

see example.
GEMINICGIINSTALL_DIR -- installation directory for nimisewi_gemini.cgi (default "$PREFIX/var/gemini/cgi-bin").

to specify these options, pass them as -D{OPTION} to initial cmake invocation. for example, these commands result in building both http and gemini versions of cgi script.

$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DBUILD_CGI=ON -DBUILD_GEMINI=ON ..
$ cmake --build .

usage

$ nimisewi

musi taso jaki pi selo olin lukin

options:

-v -- display version information and compilation features.
-i -- display sad version of nimisewi prompt.

adding new words

to add new words, edit nimitoki.txt file. add one word per line.

then, just clean everything and recompile the program.

$ vim nimitoki.txt
$ cd build
$ make clean
$ make
  ...
