# reddit-post-dump
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
`npm install`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
`node app.js --user={username}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Configuration
|
||
|
|
The default configuration aims to be sensible, and the application may be used without any further tweaking. However, this application came to life because I was not satisfied by the organizatory facilities of similar applications, thus a multitude of options are at your disposal as described in this document.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Patterns
|
||
|
|
Path patterns dictate where and how a file will be saved. Various variables and options are available, and you may use subdirectories divided by `/`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Variables
|
||
|
|
* `$postId`: The ID of the reddit post
|
||
|
|
* `$postTitle`: The title of the reddit post
|
||
|
|
* `$postUser`: The user that submitted the post, almost always equivalent to the `--user` command line argument
|
||
|
|
* `$postDate`: The submission date of the reddit post, formatted by the `dateformat` configuration described below
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `$albumId`: The ID of the media host album
|
||
|
|
* `$albumTitle`: The title of the media host album
|
||
|
|
* `$albumDescription`: The description of the media host album
|
||
|
|
* `$albumDate`: The submission date of the media host album, formatted by the `dateformat` configuration described below
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `$itemId`: The ID of the individual image or video
|
||
|
|
* `$itemTitle`: The title of the individual image or video
|
||
|
|
* `$itemDescription`: The description of the individual image or video
|
||
|
|
* `$itemDate`: The submission date of the individual image or video, formatted by the `dateformat` configuration described below
|
||
|
|
* `$itemIndex`: The index of the individual image or video in an album, offset by the `indexOffset` configuration described below
|
||
|
|
* `$ext`: The extension of the file. Must practically always be included.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Date format
|
||
|
|
Affects the representation of `$postDate`, `$albumDate` and `$itemDate` and defaults to `YYYYMMDD`. See [this documentation](https://date-fns.org/v1.29.0/docs/format) for an overview of all available tokens.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Index offset
|
||
|
|
Arrays start at 0, but as to not tire myself out debating the matter, you may offset it my any numerical value you like. Affects the `$itemIndex` variable for album items.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Slash substitute
|
||
|
|
The patterns are Unix file paths, and a `/` therefore indicates a new directory. You may freely use directories in your paths, but titles or descriptions may contain a `/` that is not supposed to create a new directory. All instances of `/` in a variable value will be replaced with the configured slash substitute.
