ZachWalk: a gemini feed checker

A replacement for spacewalk

This is just like spacewalk, except without

custom config file format
hashing page content to check for updates
multiple CLI commands
built in sorting
hundreds of lines of code

ZachWalk operates on a gemtext file, like a pipe. It will load each gemini link, updating the date in the description.

Instead of page hashing, we just parse the page for links with dates in the text. Python does all the heavy lifting for parsing these. If the page can't be updated, the existing date will be kept.

# you can use its own output as a template file.
cat spacewalk.gmi | ./zachwalk.py > radar.gmi
# output entries from your bookmarks which look like gemini feeds
grep '^=>' bookmarks.gmi | ./zachwalk.py | grep -v 1970-01-01 > radar.gmi
# sort your feeds by date
echo "Most recently modified on top." | cat /dev/stdin gemlogs.gmi | ./zachwalk.py | sort -k 3 -r > gemlogs-sorted.gmi
