ebird-cli

Go birding on your command line!

Installation

Using cabal:

cabal install ebird-cli

This will install the ebird executable. To see the list of commands, try:

ebird --help

Usage

There is one command per endpoint of the official eBird API, as listed in their documentation. Some commands require an API key, which can be obtained here. If a command requires an API key, the key can be provided via the --key or -k option. If no key is provided via the options, the CLI will attempt to read a key from a file located at $HOME/.ebird/key.txt. If no key is available there (and none was provided via the options), the command will fail.

Please don't hesitate to open an issue (or a pull request!) if something doesn't work as expected.
