Need an internet connection to work

[gbataille]

Hey,

is this a "feature" that grip does not work offline?
Browsing the issues I saw some mention of github API in issue #18, which might explain.
I must say that often, I find myself in the public transports without internet and each time I expect grip to run since it renders local content with a local server, and I get disappointed :)

Cheers
Greg

Initially it was a trade-off. Grip started as an evening project, so I personally more concerned with instant correctness rather than the ability to work offline. This was a planned enhancement (#4) from the get-go, and was completed by @isbadawi in #11.

There's also a separate fix for #18 by @joelittlejohn (#20) to log in to increase the limit if you prefer to ensure correctness through GitHub.

You can download the latest to use either one of these fixes. The next version on Pip will also include them.

Thanks for your interest, @gbataille!
