# A set of utilities for tracking text-based game releases
Originally a parser for Russian Interactive Fiction, now it's much more than that.
There are three executable PHP scripts here that serve different functions but share the code.
### run.php
This one was the first.
Its function is simple: it scans some game hosting sites, finds the new games (published during the last week) and prints a neat list in Markdown or HTML format.
All automatic.
### bot.php
This one does the same in continuous fashion, posting the feed to Mastodon or Telegram.
### wiki.php
And this one makes wiki pages for the [IFWiki](http://ifwiki.ru).
It uses Russian IFWiki syntax and templates but it would be easy to alter for the English IFWiki as well if you'd want that.
## Installation
1. Copy the `config.ini.example` to `config.ini`, edit for your liking.
2. Copy the `config.yml.example` to `config.yml` if you need to run `bot.php`; the other two use INI config format. (I know the code is not 100% merged)
3. Run the scripts.
