Front End UI #48

Open kantmakm opened 4 years ago

kantmakm commented 4 years ago

Enhancement request for a bootstrap UI module to front end the archived content: As a user I would like to view and search content archived from a yahoo group via a web browser.

IgnoredAmbience commented 4 years ago

This is out of scope for the immediate future. My primary effort at present is on getting the archival methods bug free and reliable. UI and frontend stuff is also outside of my experience.

I don't know if this is the right place, but since my issue was closed and I was redirected here, I just found that there is actually a software that will convert things to html, but you need eml files, which were removed. It seems that this mailing list archivers can do it:

https://www.mhonarc.org http://www.hypermail-project.org/hypermail.html

I guess the easiest way would be to export the eml files and do an html archive. Then create a new list.

@jmeile an EML (or similar) converter is planned once archival is solid. Progress is being tracked under #55.

We'll likely be recommending HyperKitty or Pipermail or another package capable or working with EML/MBOX format for viewing archives.

Thanks for your answer, but I was thinking about an online service and not a self managed server.

Anyway, I already got the EML mails with another archiver. The only think that failed was a problem with an EML that has a removed infected attachment. I could solved this by modifying the code.
