Getting text from posts

[vaxtermat]

Hello! I would like to know if it is possible to download the text in the posts.

I saw that there are possible entries in the metadata files so I would like to make sure this can be obtained or showed in some way.

Thank you in advance!

You could try using a custom filename format and use the 'text' variable. I don't really recommend this as you'll face some problems with illegal characters which are not allowed in filenames + the length of the text might exceed the maximum filename size. I would say use it at your own risk as I still need to make something to format them correctly.

OK, thank you. I will wait patiently until this could be implemented.

Try it first, in config.json set PostFileNameFormat to {text}

The raw {text} output often contains illegal characters and messy stuff like emojis, etc. May I suggest an option to simply output the titles into a text file, along with the file name? This way, I can use external tools such as Advanced Renamer to bulk rename the files with the titles, and handle the random characters easier. Thank you!

Can messages be output as text files?I'd like to save the actual conversations I have with the guys I subscribe to.How would I do that?...or does this need to be implemented later?

All messages are saved in the metadata DB file, you can export/view them all using a tool like https://sqlitebrowser.org/
