# GLaDOS Said

## Description

GLaDOS said is a CLI tool that will return a randomly generated quote said by GLaDOS in the video game Portal (AND Portal 2). This also can give your projects access to a random GLaDOS quote.

### Use Case

You can use GLaDOS said in combination with Cowsay to get some interesting results. Simply adding the line `glados-said | cowsay` to your `~/.zshrc` file (or whatever shell you're using) will a new quote every time you open your terminal.

# Usage

## Using in CLI Globally

This tool was **initially** written purely for usage with Cowsay via the CLI.

Using this tool is pretty straight forward. After installed globally, simply run the command `glados-said`. For added fun, you can pass that to [cowsay](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowsay). Additionally, you can add a GLaDOS cowfile to your cowfiles directory to have GLaDOS say the quotes!

A GLaDOS Pixel art cowfile is provided in the [assets directory](assets/glados-pixel-small.cow).

## Using in your own projects

To gain access to GLaDOS quotes in your own projects, run `npm i glados-said` in the project directory.

Once installed, usage is simple.

Example after installing:

```js
//external_script.js
import { Glados } from "glados-said";

console.log(Glados.GetQuote());
```

# TODOS

- [x] Scrape quotes from GLaDOS quotes page.
- [x] Fix module exports to be easier to use from external projects.
- [ ] Remove duplicate quotes
- [ ] Take out useless quotes (i.e., "yeah.")
