wiki bless

record that a picture is still true

wiki bless records a picture's current fingerprint, and the reason it is still true, in the picture record.[1] When a picture needs it is described on Pictures, and every key of the record on PICTURES.toml.

Usage

Both arguments are required, and a reason with spaces is quoted.[2]

wiki bless [-h] [--root ROOT] [--wiki WIKI] PICTURE REASON
wiki bless refund-flow.svg "the arrows still match the code"

Arguments

Argument Meaning
PICTURE the picture's file name, as its record names it[2]
REASON why the picture is still true, which cannot be empty[3]

Output

It prints the picture and the reason it recorded.[1]

wiki: refund-flow.svg blessed -- the arrows still match the code

It rewrites the whole of PICTURES.toml: every comment becomes the tool's own header, any key other than made, digest, depicts and blessed is dropped, and an earlier reason is replaced.[4]
