QUESTION: Chat

Open tomitrescak opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

A quick question, does this also scrape the chant transcript to not? The scraping seems to save the images and videos but I do not see the text. Thanks

The default configuration JSON file in the experimental branch (which is now part of the origin) should have the option "gatherJSONData" set to "true" which means that you should have a new folder named "cached" which stores the JSON data returned by the undocumented search API by Discord.

In there you'll find textual data in each JSON file as well as other detailed information from each day. Enough information there to feasibly re-create the contents of the channels you scrape using this script if so desired.
