cohost-dl
Downloads posts onto your computer from cohost.org, which is shutting down.
- Post pages are downloaded exactly as they appear on Cohost, including shared posts, comments, and with your display settings (silenced tags, etc.)
- Downloads all of your own posts and all of your liked posts
- If you have a data portability archive: also downloads all posts you’ve commented on
- Legal: using this software does not somehow grant you a license to re-publish posts and comments from other people
Usage
- Copy
CONFIG.example.ts to CONFIG.ts
- edit
CONFIG.ts appropriately
- Install Deno
./run.sh
- if you’re using a system that doesn’t support Bash, such as Windows,
you can just copy the
deno run ... command from this file and run it directly.
It's safe to interrupt and re-start the script at any time.
Things that have already been downloaded will not be downloaded again,
and any changes in configuration will be taken into account upon restart.
