= Pelican

:toc-title: Contents
== Overview
**This project is in ALPHA state and is not ready for production use yet.**
Pelican is a simple Kanban board for your terminal.
Data is stored in a https://github.com/etcd-io/bbolt[BoltDB] database.
Pelican does not make any assumptions to the path of the database file;
instead the user is expected to specify the path when running the application.
== Installation
=== Requirements
==== Go
A minimum version of Go 1.21.0 is required for installing spruce.
Please go https://go.dev/dl/[here] to download the latest version.
==== Mage (Optional)
The project includes a https://codeflow.dananglin.me.uk/apollo/pelican/src/branch/main/magefiles/mage.go[magefile]
for automating the build and installation of the binary.
You can visit the https://magefile.org[website] for instructions on how to install Mage.
=== Install with Mage
You can install pelican with Mage using the following commands:
[source,console]
----
git clone https://codeflow.dananglin.me.uk/apollo/pelican.git
cd pelican
mage install
----
The default install prefix is set to `/usr/local` so pelican will be installed to `/usr/local/bin/pelican`.
If you want to change the install prefix you can set the `PELICAN_INSTALL_PREFIX` environment variable
before installing.
[source,console]
----
PELICAN_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local mage install
----
=== Install with Go
If your `GOBIN` directory is included in your `PATH` then you can install Pelican with Go.
[source,console]
----
git clone https://codeflow.dananglin.me.uk/apollo/pelican.git
cd pelican
go install ./cmd/pelican
----
== Running Pelican
To create a new Kanban project with Pelican, simply run the following command:
[source,console]
----
pelican project.pelican
----
This will create a new BoltDB database file called `project.pelican` in your current directory
and initialises the database with an empty project.
