Reticulating Loading Messages...

Use the loading messages from The Sims in your program!

---

Want some garbage messages you can add to a loading screen? Congrats 🎉 you've found the right repo!

I Just Want Messages!

1. Use the CLI tool (that can also run the API) on MacOS

    brew tap willfantom/reticulate
    brew install reticulate
    reticulate --help
   

2. It can be as simple as a cURL!

   # From any game
   curl https://sims.willfantom.com/api/messages/random
   # From just the sims 2
   curl https://sims.willfantom.com/api/messages/sims2/random
   # From just the sims 2 university life
   curl https://sims.willfantom.com/api/messages/sims2/university/random
   

See examples for more uses!

Add to Go Program

You can just add this to your golang program:

go get github.com/willfantom/reticulating-go

Example:

package main

import (
  "fmt"

  "github.com/willfantom/reticulating-go"
)

func main() {
  fmt.Println(reticulating.GetLoadingMessage())
}

I Wanna Host The API Myself...

Just use the built Docker image 🐳

docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/willfantom/reticulating:latest

Or the CLI tool

reticulate api --port 8080

TODO

1. Think of a better name for this project
2. MORE MESSAGES
3. Procrastinate by playing the Sims again
4. Stop working on this because its useless...

Thanks

Thanks to this post for collating the messages!
