salahtime is a small command line application written in C for Linux and BSD that displays the Islamic prayer times for Europe/Copenhagen.
salahtime uses a multidimensional array to store the time table and the table can easily be substituted for another if needed.
It can simply be done by creating a file named in the format: region_city.c (you can copy that file to cities folder as well, and make a pull request to add the city in the main repo https://github.com/unixsheikh/salahtime).
Then in the main directory of this git repo, enter something like:
sed -i 's/europe_copenhagen/<your region>_<your_city>/g' salahtime.c
So, if for example your city is Riyadh in Saudi Arabia, your data file should be named asia_riyadh.c and the command you enter has to be:
sed -i 's/europe_copenhagen/asia_riyadh/g' salahtime.c
Clone this repository or download the zip version.
$ git clone https://github.com/unixsheikh/salahtime
The Makefile uses clang, but if you want to use gcc instead just change the CC variable to gcc, then run the make command:
$ cd salahtime
$ make
Or:
$ make CC=gcc
Then simply copy the salahtime executable to somewhere in your home directory and add that directory to your $PATH variable.
The following example uses the Bash shell.
$ mkdir $HOME/bin
$ cp -f salahtime $HOME/bin/
Edit .bashrc in your home directory with your favorite text editor and add the "bin" folder to your $PATH variable.
export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
Remember to reload bash.
$ exec bash
And if you need to uninstall salahtime just remove it from the "bin" folder.
If, however, you want to, you can also install this system-wide (requires root).
$ make CC=gcc
$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
$ sudo cp -f ./salahtime /usr/local/bin/
See the man page for usage information. For an ad-hoc way of reading the manpage, inside the main directory of salahtime:
$ man ./salahtime.1
To get the manpage of salahtime from anywhere:
$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/man/man1/
$ sudo cp -f ./salahtime.1 /usr/local/share/man/man1/
$ man salahtime
