Gonews

A Golang CLI to browser news from Hacker News and Reddit
Also is a Golang implementation of the awesome pynews-cli.

Installing

Get this project and install via go get -u.

$ go get -u github.com/drgarcia1986/gonews

Or you can download a binary on releases.

Usage example

To get the last 10 new stories just call gonews on command line and press Enter on the news wanted.

You can determine the number max of news to return with parameter --limit and you can also choose between new or top stories with parameter --type.

By default gonews use hackernews as provider, but you can change the provider with parameter --provider, e.g:

$ gonews --provider reddit-golang --type new --limit 10
