18 Dianara is a Pump.io application for the desktop. With it, you can man‐
19 age your Pump.io account without using a web browser. You can also do
20 things that the web interface can't do at this point, like editing
21 posts and comments, or uploading audio and video.
22
23
24 What it does:
25
26 - Posting text (with some HTML formatting), to Followers, Public,
27 custom person lists created by you, or specific people, in any combi‐
28 nation.
29
30 - Uploading pictures, audio, video, and other files.
31
32 - Showing different timelines, with configurable number of posts per
33 page,
34 moving forward and backward in pages, or jumping to any page
35 directly.
36
37 - Liking, commenting, sharing, editing and deleting posts.
38
39 - Liking, editing and deleting comments.
40
41 - Contact listing, following and unfollowing, either by entering their
42 webfinger address, through buttons in the lists, or via avatar menus.
43
44 - Editing your profile, changing your avatar, setting your e-mail
45 address.
46
47 - Watching the "Meanwhile" feed and interacting with posts from it.
48 Also the "Mentions" and "Actions" feeds, showing only activities
49 related to
50 you, or done by you.
51
52 - Filter out unwanted posts, or highlight them according to some rules.
53
54 - Popup notifications when there are new posts, or new "Meanwhile"
55 activities.
56
57 - And more!
58
59
60
61
63 - Press F1 in the program to read the general help.
64
65 - You can set "public posting" as the default in the Configuration win‐
66 dow.
67
68 - There are tooltips everywhere, so if you hover over a button or a
69 text
70 field with your mouse, you'll probably see some extra information.
71 This is specially useful in the "Meanwhile" feed.
72
73 - When publishing a note or posting a comment, you can send using the
74 keyboard, by pressing Control+Enter.
75
76 - You can use Control+Up/Down/PgUp/PgDown/Home/End to scroll the time‐
77 line.
78 Use Control+Left/Right to go forward and backwards in the timeline
79 pages.
80 Press Control+G to jump to any page.
81
82 - You can click on the avatar of a post's author to get some options.
83 This also works in the comments, and in the Meanwhile feed.
84
85 - If a post is of "image" type, you can click on the image to see it
86 full size.
87
88 - You can hide/show the side panel by pressing F9.
89 Most items in the "Meanwhile" column have a "+" button to open the
90 referenced post.
91
92 - Adding titles to your posts will make the "Meanwhile" feed and the e-
93 mail
94 notifications a lot more useful!
95
96 - You can temporarily stop (and restart) the auto-updating of timelines
97 by clicking on the "state" icon in the status bar, or by using the
98 Session > Auto-update Timelines option.
99
100 - If you connect to the Internet through a proxy, you can set it up in
101 the
102 program settings.
103
104 - Dianara offers a D-Bus interface that allows some control from other
105 applications. The interface is at org.nongnu.dianara, and you can
106 access
107 it with tools such as qdbus or dbus-send. It offers methods like
108 'toggle'
109 and 'post'.
110
111
112
114 - You can use the --config (or -c) command line parameter to specify
115 that a
116 different configuration file be used.
117 For example, if you run "dianara --config myotheraccount", the config
118 file
119 in use will be "Dianara_myotheraccount.conf" instead of the usual
120 "Dianara.conf". This way, you can switch between different accounts
121 easily.
122 You can even run two instances of Dianara at the same time.
123 You can use any name you wish to identify the configuration, but it
124 must be
125 one word, no spaces.
126
127 - Use the --debug (or -d) command line parameter to have detailed
128 debugging
129 information on what the program is doing.
130
131 - If your server does not support HTTPS, you can use the --nohttps
132 parameter.
133
134 - If you need to connect to a server with a invalid SSL configuration,
135 such
136 as a self-signed certificate or an expired certificate, you can use
137 the
138 --ignoresslerrors parameter. This is not recommended.
139

142
144 ~/.config/JanCoding/Dianara.conf
145 Stores program configuration, for default profile. Other pro‐
146 files used via --config option will use Dianara_yourconfig‐
147 name.conf
148
149
150
151 ~/.local/share/JanCoding/
152 Stores cached program data, such as user avatars and post meta-
153 information.
