## 🚀 Building It Yourself
To build Neosay, you'll need to clone the repository and build the binary:
```
git clone https://github.com/donuts-are-good/neosay.git
cd neosay
go build
```
## 📝 Configuration (Environment Variables)
You may want to use Neosay with environment variables instead of a config file.
```
echo "Hello, world!" | ./neosay
```
You can load in your configuration details as environment variables like this in your environment:
```
export MATRIX_HOMESERVER_URL="https://matrix.example.com"
export MATRIX_USER_ID="@yourusername:example.com"
export MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN="your_access_token"
export MATRIX_ROOM_ID="!yourroomid:example.com"
```
## 📝 Configuration (JSON)
Neosay can optionally use a JSON configuration file to store the Matrix homeserver URL, user ID, access token, and room ID. This makes it easy to switch between rooms.
**Note:** Be careful using this method, anybody can inmpersonate you with this information. It's best to make a different account for this.
Here's an example of the JSON configuration file:
```
{
"homeserverURL": "https://matrix.example.com",
"userID": "@yourusername:example.com",
"accessToken": "your_access_token",
"roomID": "!yourroomid:example.com"
}
```
## 🌟 Examples
### Sending a simple message
`echo "Hello, world!" | ./neosay config.json`
### Sending a multi-line message
`cat yourfile.txt | ./neosay config.json`
### Sending a code block
`echo "Hello, world!" | ./neosay -c config.json`
