=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
B<yapfaq> posts (one or more) FAQs to Usenet with a certain posting
|
|
||||||
frequency (every n days, weeks, months or years), adding all necessary
|
|
||||||
headers as defined in its config file (by default F<yapfaq.cfg>).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=head2 Configuration
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
F<yapfaq.cfg> consists of one or more blocks, separated by C<=====> on
|
|
||||||
a single line, each containing the configuration for one FAQ as a set
|
|
||||||
of definitions in the form of I<param = value>. Everything after a "#"
|
|
||||||
sign is ignored so you may comment your configuration file.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=over 4
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<Name> = I<project name>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A name referring to your FAQ, also used for generation of a Message-ID.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This value must be set.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<File> = I<file name>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A file containing the message body of your FAQ and all pseudo headers
|
|
||||||
(subheaders in the news.answers style).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This value must be set.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<Posting-frequency> = I<time period>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The posting frequency defines how often your FAQ will be posted.
|
|
||||||
B<yapfaq> will only post your FAQ if this period of time has passed
|
|
||||||
since the last posting.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can declare that time period either in I<B<d>ays> or I<B<w>weeks>
|
|
||||||
or I<B<m>onths> or I<B<y>ears>.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This value must be set.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<Expires> = I<time period> (optional)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The period of time after which your message will expire. An Expires
|
|
||||||
header will be calculated adding this time period to today's date.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can declare this time period either in I<B<d>ays> or I<B<w>weeks>
|
|
||||||
or I<B<m>onths> or I<B<y>ears>.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This setting is optional; the default is 3 months.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<From> = I<author>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The author of your FAQ as it will appear in the From header of the
|
|
||||||
message.
|

|
|

|
|

This setting is optional; the default is '<%n-%y-%m-%d@I<YOURHOST>>'
|
|
||||||
where I<YOURHOST> is the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the

host B<yapfaq> is running on. Obviously that will only work if you

have defined a reasonable hostname that the hostfqdn() function of

posts is stored in a file named F<I<project name>.cfg> which will be

generated if it does not exist. Each of those status files will
|
|
||||||
contain two lines, the first being the date of the last time the FAQ
|
|
||||||
was posted and the second being the message ID of that incarnation.

=head2 Runtime Configuration
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Apart from configuring which FAQ(s) to post you may (re)set some
|
|
||||||
runtime configuration variables via the .rcfile (by default
|
|
||||||
F<.yapfaqrc>). F<.yapfaqrc> must contain one definition in the form of
|
|
||||||
I<param = value> on each line; everything after a "#" sign is ignored.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you omit some settings they will be set to default values hardcoded
|
|
||||||
in F<yapfaq.pl>.

|
|

|
|

=item B<NNTPServer> = I<NNTP server> (mandatory)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Host name of the NNTP server to post to. Must be set (or omitted; the
|
|
||||||
default is "localhost"); if set to en empty string, B<yapfaq> falls
|
|
||||||
back to Perl's build-in defaults (contents of environment variables
|
|
||||||
NNTPSERVER and NEWSHOST; if not set, default from Net::Config; if not
|
|

set, "news" is used).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<NNTPUser> = I<user name> (optional)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
User name used for authentication with the NNTP server (I<AUTHINFO
|
|
||||||
USER>).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This setting is optional; if it is not set, I<NNTPPass> is ignored and

|

This setting is optional; it must be set if I<NNTPUser> is present.

|
||||||
=over 3
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-V> (version)
|
|

|

Print out version and copyright information on B<yapfaq> and exit.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-h> (help)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Print this man page and exit.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-v> (verbose)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Print out status information while running to STDOUT.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-p> (post unconditionally)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Post (all) FAQs unconditionally ignoring the posting frequency setting.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You may want to use this with the B<-f> option (see below).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-d> (dry run)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Start B<yapfaq> in simulation mode, i.e. don't post anything and don't
|
|
||||||
update any status information.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-t> I<newsgroup(s) | CONSOLE> (test)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Don't post to the newsgroups defined in F<yqpfaq.cfg>, but to the
|
|
||||||
(test) newsgroup(s) given after B<-t> as a comma-separated list or
|
|
||||||
print the FAQs to STDOUT separated by lines of dashes if the special
|
|
||||||
string C<CONSOLE> is given. This can be used to preview what
|
|
||||||
B<yapfaq> would do without embarassing yourself on Usenet.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The status files are not updated when this option is given.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When this option is used to post to some other newsgroup(s), a(nother)
|
|
||||||
timestamp is added to the Message-ID header and the Supersedes header
|
|
||||||
is replaced by a special X-Supersedes header.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You may want to use this with the B<-f> option (see below).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-f> I<project name>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Just deal with one FAQ only.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
By default B<yapfaq> will work on all FAQs that are defined in
|
|
||||||
F<yapfaq.cfg>, check whether they are due for posting and - if they
|
|
||||||
are - post them. Consequently when the B<-p> option is set all FAQs
|
|
||||||
will be posted unconditionally. That may not be what you want to
|
|
||||||
achieve, so you can limit the operation of B<yapfaq> to the named FAQ
|
|
||||||
only.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-s> I<program> (pipe to script)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Instead of posting the article(s) to Usenet pipe them to the external
|
|
||||||
I<program> on STDIN (which may post the article(s) then). A return
|
|
||||||
value of 0 will be considered success.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For example, you may want to use the I<inews> utility from the INN package
|
|
||||||
or the much more powerful replacement I<tinews.pl> from
|
|
||||||
I<ftp://ftp.tin.org/tin/tools/tinews.pl> which is able to sign postings.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If I<Program> is also defined in the runtime configuration file (by default
|
|
||||||
F<.yapfaqrc>), B<-s> takes preference.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
=item B<-c> I<.rc file>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Load another runtime configuration file (.rc file) than F<.yaofaq.rc>.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You may for example define another usenet server to post your FAQ(s)
|
|
||||||
to or load another configuration file defining (an)other FAQ(s).

=head1 INSTALLATION
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Just copy the contents of the tarball in some directory and get started.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can post your first test with
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
yapfaq -c .yapfaqrc.sample
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
or copy F<.yapfaqrc.sample> to F<.yapfaqrc> and F<yapfaq.cfg.sample>
|
|
||||||
to F<yapfaq.cfg>, edit those files and get really started!

|
|

Post all FAQs that are due for posting:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
yapfaq
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Do a dry run, showing which FAQs would be posted:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
yapfaq -dv
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Do a test run and print on STDOUT what the FAQ I<myfaq> would look
|
|
||||||
like when posted, regardless whether it is due for posting or not:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
yapfaq -pt CONSOLE -f myfaq
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Do a "real" test run and post the FAQ I<myfaq> to I<de.test>, but only
|
|
||||||
if it is due:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
yapfaq -t de.test -f myfaq
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Post all FAQs (that are due for posting) using inews from INN:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
yapfaq -s inews
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Do a dry run using a runtime configuration from .alternaterc, showing
|
|

which FAQs would be posted:
|
|

|
|
||||||
yapfaq -dvc .alternaterc
