HackerTray
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
HackerTray is a simple [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com/) Linux application
|
|
that lets you view top HN stories in your System Tray. It relies on appindicator, so
|
|
it is not guaranteed to work on all systems.
|
|
|
|
The inspiration for this came from [Hacker Bar](http://hackerbarapp.com), which is
|
|
Mac-only. I tried to port it to `node-webkit`, but had to do it in Python instead
|
|
because nw doesn't support AppIndicators yet.
|
|
|
|
##Features
|
|
1. Minimalist Approach to HN
|
|
2. Opens links in your default browser
|
|
3. Remembers which links you opened
|
|
4. Shows Points/Comment count in a simple format
|
|
|
|
##To-Do
|
|
- Reload data every 5 minutes
|
|
- Implement a way to remember which stories have been read
|
|
- Ideally app-memory should be persistent (save on disk)
|
|
- Auto Start
|
|
- Convert to a Python Module
|
|
- Try to convert right click to comments link
