💖 lsi-getconf — the manual page, bestie edition 💖

okay so. lsi-getconf is a General Commands Manual page (section 1, we love a section 1) and it's all about reading your browser's database to sniff out the cookie and token that localslackirc needs. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

lsi-getconf — read the browser database to try to find the cookie and token that are necessary to set up localslackirc.

like. that's it. that's the job. she goes digging in your browser's lil files and comes back with the goods 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lsi-getconf [OPTIONS]

no positional args, no drama, just options. iconic honestly.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this command reads the browser database to try to find the token and cookie that are necessary to localslackirc. yes, try. she's doing her best 😭

for now it only supports Firefox. Firefox girlies, this one's for you. everybody else… it's not giving. sorry bestie.

also, real talk: this is experimental. it might not work on your machine. and if it doesn't? no cap, you should fall back to extracting the data directly from the browser. manual mode. old school. do what you gotta do 🙈

🎀 Options 🎀

  • -h, --help — show the help message and exit. the classic. she tells you what's up and then she's gone 💨
  • --mozilla-dir DIRECTORY — alternative search path for the mozilla directory. it defaults to ~/.mozilla. so if your Firefox situation lives somewhere else, point her at it and she'll look there instead 👑

💀 Known errors 💀

  • database is locked — close the browser to solve this issue. yes literally just close it. she can't read the database while Firefox has it in a headlock, bestie. shut the browser, then run her again ✨
it's giving "have you tried turning it off and on again" but for your browser. and it works. fr fr.
