Stub to write down notes about project in progress

Archiving the contents of https://mspfa.com/ - uses a JS app to read text-based stories with embedded images and Flash content. Often link to YouTube alternates for flashes.

Custom archiver code is at https://github.com/riking/mspfa-archiver . Giant tangled mess of Go scripts.

Contact @riking to get upload permissions for the Archive collection

Operating the custom archiver

Prep

  1. Clone into $GOPATH - there will probably be updates to the script
  2. Get wpull: pip3 install wpull==1.2.3; pip3 install -r https://github.com/chfoo/wpull/blob/v1.2.3/requirements.txt
  3. Symlink it into the current directory: ln -s $(which wpull)
  4. Get youtube-dl, youtube-dl -U as needed
  5. If needed, symlink ./target to a bigger drive or specify -o=folder every time you run it
  6. Build the code (TODO: patches to datatogether/warc) go build -v .
  7. Put IAS3 credentials into ./ias3.json - {"AccessKeyID": "...", "SecretAccessKey": "..."}

Running

While testing, make sure to include both -test -ident MSPFA_Test_12345 so that the uploaded Archive items go into test_collection. When testing changes to the script, use -devScript

Basic usage: ./mspfa-archiver -dl -ident auto -s 1234

If a download step fails (e.g. broken URL passed to photobucket step) run the archiver again with the -fu ("F"orce "U"pload) flag.

If you encounter a dead domain and don't want to wait for wpull, include -wpullArgs '--exclude-domains majhost.com,g0m.yore.ma' etc etc.

TODO - Script to automatically run on each story ID and save a list of failures
