starseeker (Feb 02 2021 at 04:30): starseeker (Feb 02 2021 at 04:30):Hah! Managed to pull an archive of zulip with https://github.com/rust-lang/zulip_archive
starseeker (Feb 02 2021 at 04:32):Longer term may want to look at a github action with https://github.com/rust-lang/zulip_archive but in the meantime we've got something.

Sean (Jul 26 2024 at 15:26):@starseeker looks great -- did you try logging into zulip via web browser before running the archiver?
Sean (Jul 26 2024 at 15:29):also, wonder if that rust-lang fork you used previously, if it pulls the images still of if there's some action needed. The images on the github.io site display for me if i click them, but I think that's because I'm logged in.
starseeker (Jul 26 2024 at 15:40):Yeah, I saw the same thing - displays if I click them, because I'm logged in. The URLs are the fully qualified zulip URLs to the images. Apparently the zulip-archive code doesn't currently handle localizing them: https://github.com/zulip/zulip-archive/issues/68
starseeker (Jul 26 2024 at 15:44):I had forgotten about https://github.com/rust-lang/zulip_archive
starseeker (Jul 26 2024 at 15:45):Let me dig in a little to what they're doing
starseeker (Jul 26 2024 at 15:47):Hum. Looks like they're not pulling images either.
starseeker (Jul 26 2024 at 16:42):As long as I'm at this: https://brl-cad.github.io/irc_archive/
starseeker (Jul 26 2024 at 16:42):From https://github.com/BRL-CAD/irc_archive
starseeker (Jul 29 2024 at 12:34):Woo hoo! https://brl-cad.github.io/zulip_archive/ is updated, looks like the cron job is working.
Sean (Jul 29 2024 at 16:35):That should help with discoverability, get more community into discussions and familiar with ways to get involved, read up on past discussions, etc. Awesome.
Sean (Jul 29 2024 at 16:36):Any way you can get it to download the images locally so we have a copy of everything? A second script that scrapes or something?
starseeker (Jul 29 2024 at 16:37):None that I've been able to find yet - I don't know if the bot credentials have access to the images

starseeker (Aug 02 2024 at 22:36):Maybe a good student project?
Sean (Aug 03 2024 at 05:48):I mean, that's got to be maybe a day or two to figure it out. Not really project-worthy, but definitely something just about anyone could probably tackle.
Sean (Aug 03 2024 at 06:38):/me fills out BRL-CAD's organization profile on Zulip...
