A simple self-contained clone of fortune. Try it out with cowsay!
pip install fortune-python
Currently, a fortune command line program is added on install.
fortune
This will select a random fortune. Adding the fortune command line arguments is planned later.
To use this package, import the fortune function and call:
from fortune import fortune
print(fortune())This will produce a random fortune.
The fortune data for this package is taken from fortune-mod. Please see the datfiles directory in this repo for their corresponding license.
The offensive fortunes in the 'off' directory are not included in this Python package. However, the fortunes provided in this package are otherwise provided as they were in the original fortune-mod repository. I do not take responsibility for the content of these fortunes.
