quare 0.2.4

quare

Interact with Quip from the command line.

Introduction
quare allows interaction with Quip via the command line. While quare is in alpha, there are some features you may find useful:

Pipe the output of a command to a chat or document and format it as monospace.
Archive messages by piping them into a local file
Securely store authentication tokens for multiple Quip instances.

This tool is in its early stages of development, and is subject to change (or abandonment) at any time. Use at your own risk.
Installation
$ pipx install quare

Usage
Authentication
Store a Quip API token (See: https://quip.com/dev/token):
$ quare auth
Token: long_token_string
Token stored.

If you have multiple Quip instances (like multiple Slack Workspaces), you can specify an alias for them. You can also pass your token directly to auth:
$ quare msg auth --alias test_server --token 't1DJBQWBXHCYgh1=|2983928392|nYtRFIhV7nl4...'

Whoami
To see information about the logged in user:
$ quare msg whoami
┌Default───────┬───────────────┐
│ Name │ Tests Testeri │
├──────────────┼───────────────┤
│ Email(s) │ t@testz.dev │
├──────────────┼───────────────┤
│ Quip User ID │ mRLA6Zdn3PO │
└──────────────┴───────────────┘

Sending messages
The destination may be a document or chat:
$ quare msg send --room room_id --content 'Hello everyone!'

Pipe content from stdin
Message content can be piped from stdin:
$ uname -a | quare msg send --room room_id --content '-'

While Quip allows formatting messages using some markdown markup, it doesn't recognize markdown code blocks ("```"). To define a code block, use the --monospace option:
$ dmesg | tail -n 5 | quare msg send --room room_id --content '-' --monospace

Receiving messages
Stream to stdout
To stream every message appearing in the Updates tab:
$ quare msg stream
Streaming updates... press Ctrl-C to exit.

To get the last 2 messages as JSON:
$ quare msg get -r "IcTAAAtVxXb" --last 2 --json
[{"author_id": "mRLA6Zdn3PO", "visible": true, "id": "IcderpEe8wG", "created_usec": 1561849212672040, "updated_usec": 1561849212696571, "text": "ok", "author_name": "Tester Testeri"}, {"author_id": "mRLA6Zdn3PO", "visible": true, "id": "IcNodg7n2Tx", "created_usec": 1561851291612434, "updated_usec": 1561851291620308, "text": "chat", "author_name": "Tester Testeri"}]

To dump the last 200 messages in a chat room into a text file:
$ quare msg get --room room_id --last 200 > interesting_conversation.log

To get all messages since a datetime:
$ quare msg get --room room_id --since 2019-01-01T00:32:00Z > greppable_archive.log

The --since option recognizes any date recognized by dateparser:
$ quare msg get --room room_id --since 'Monday' > this_week.log
$ quare msg get --room room_id --since '2 months ago' > this_quarter.log

Editing documents

$ quare doc append --id xxxDoc_IDxxx --file /tmp/foo.md
$ cat /tmp/foo.md | quare doc append --id xxxDoc_IDxxx --file -
