Examples

What's probably broken within...

... the last 24 hours?

$ firewatch -t 1d

... the last week?

$ firewatch -t 1w

... three days on some high profile anaconda.org channels?

$ firewatch -t 3d -c conda-forge -c intel

... the last month on AstroConda?

$ firewatch -t 1M -c http://ssb.stsci.edu/astroconda

What about showing only certain packages?

You are in luck. Issue package name(s) as positional arguments.

$ firewatch -c conda-forge cfitsio hstcal
