Output instance specific options

[herndlm]

I was thinking of making my instance available for the public too, if there are more they could potentially even be listed in the README so that users can choose one. I think it would be good then if the bot could output instance specific options so that the users know if it's up-to-date or configured as they would like to use it, e.g.

• check_interval: maybe via feeds command as in "The feeds are checked for updates every {check_interval} seconds"
• version: this is the most interesting one IMO but also tricky as the version only exists in setup.cfg and via git tag. Maybe the former could be loaded/parsed or migrated to setup.py if that helps? Either a dedicated version or status command might make sense, or simply adding it to help

What do you think?

I wanted to implement the first one already but failed with generating the translations correctly, if you are interested in it I can create PRs if you point me in the right directions :)

Both are nice ideas. I'm opposed to adding another command, however. The interval in "feeds" and the version in "help" sounds fine.

The translations are done with gettext. I didn't master that myself, yet. It's probably easiest to simply add the necessary lines to the nina_xmpp/locale/nina_xmpp.pot and nina_xmpp/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/nina_xmpp.po files manually...

Great, I'll create a PR for that then soon!

I was playing around with gettext but did not get it to generate the files the right way..
