uxCATling - rudimentary, dear Watson, parsing account history with nothing but that bash and dash - parseaccounthistory v0.01

and i think while doing the main body for @ubasti next post manually
to myself hmz, maybe i made an error in how much it distributed so far

so a bit of automation without an actual bot would take a bit of the boring load off and lo and behold, the mighty linux comes with conditionals and case statements by default, which leads to a first babystep from script to actual program

#!/bin/bash

##################################
ACCOUNTHANDLE=$1
##################################
METHOD=$2
##################################

bla='{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "condenser_api.get_account_history", "params": ["'
bla2='",  10000, 10000], "id": 1 }'
bla3=$bla$ACCOUNTHANDLE$bla2

echo $ACCOUNTHANDLE
echo $METHOD
echo $bla3

curl --silent --data "$bla3" https://api.steemit.com >testest

case $2 in
"sbi")
grep -Po '(?<=("to":"steembasicincome",)).*?(?=(}))' testest > testestttt
;;
"transfers")
echo "parsing all outgoing transfers"
grep -Po '(?<=("transfer",{"from":"ubasti",)).*?(?=(","memo"))' testest > testestttt
;;
*)
echo "UNKNOWN COMMAND "$2
;;
esac
#ho-kiez, next up conditional where $2 is command ? transfer / sbi
cat testestttt

so i can

./anyinteractionwith_wrk.sh ubasti sbi

or i can

./anyinteractionwith_wrk.sh ubasti transfers

to see all outgoing transfers of actual steem and sbd

which should be easy enough to add

./anyinteractionwith_wrk.sh ubasti transfers SBD

./anyinteractionwith_wrk.sh ubasti upvotes 100 (or upvotes all)

to get all or the last 100 upvotes for instance, i think i'm starting to get the hang of it, slightly, in my own chaotic way, which is nowhere near structured daily hours on set hours but thats the least of my concerns really, im warding off evil in 10 feet radiusses all the time here

but this , at least, satisfies both my need to check it and my need to have some actual content for this post

YO-lo

probably best if she doesn't grow TOO fast or everyone will be left with 0.001 sbd and theres only three upvotes at 15sp to be raffled but if it comes it comes i kinda like the little project so far
