  "description": "A program which fetches the user and site status from Inkbunny and possibly performs an action.  This is barely more than a curl command piping into jq, it is intended to be used with my Inkbunny Maildir Fetch script, but it seemed like it could also be used elsewhere so it became its own program.\n\nBe careful what automation you setup with this.  If you fail to add generous sleeps/delays/waits between requests you will only piss off the admins and no one wants that.\n\nThe intended usage is something like:\n\n[q]export PHPSESSID='my-session-id'\nmkdir -p ~/inkbuny-messages/\ncd ~/inkbunny-messages\nwhile sleep 300; do ib-status unread_private_messages_count -- ib-maildir-fetch; done[/q]\n\nThe script doesn't do any login of its own because I felt trying to automate the login process would not endear me to the site admins.  I trust that users who want to run this script will know how to extract the session cookie from their browser.\n\nThere is no official API for getting the user and site status so this script may break in the future as the site is updated.  There's not much that can be done about that.\n\nMods and admins, I believe these scripts fit in with the spirit of the other scripts found in the [url=Apps, Scripts and Mods]Apps, Scripts and Mods[/url] page and don't violate the ToS, please remove them if you disagree.  I will be happy to make any modifications you require to these scripts if there is something in them that concerns you.\n\n[center][i]This program is uploaded in the hopes that it may be useful to others.  No guarantee is made that this program is correct and free from faults.  Never run code on your system that you haven't first read and understood.[/i][/center]"
