data liberation #17

Closed pdurbin closed 4 years ago

pdurbin commented 5 years ago

In general, I get nervous when I put information into a system and have trouble getting it out.

Is there interest in coming up with solutions to download our data from the following services?

I would suggest that we could have an issue per service. Or if there is no interest in data liberation, we could simply close this issue. 😄

GitHub issues are accessible via API. Murmur is unlikely to be hugely used, and if the list is used we can re-evaluate. Gitter also appears to have an API although it's more in development (and they had posted recently for hiring so I expect it to be for a bit). I don't think I'm greatly concerned at this point about any on the list.

You should easily be able to create (if it's not already done) a script to run regularly to download content, if you think this is hugely important.

@vsoch thanks for the encouragement. I went ahead and started working on data liberation for GitHub issues in #22.

I'll make issues for other services eventually. :smile:

Sounds good! I just got a skeleton working for the human list -> https://good-labs.github.io/human-menu/ It's just enough to load the list and have different local storage settings, have lots more to do but I'm happy to have a start! Here is the JavaScript object (and look in index.js for how it's used so far).

I'll ping you when it's more of a full working thing for feedback.

Since #22 was closed I guess I'll close this issue as well. For the record, I've had good luck with https://github.com/minrk/archive-gitter though I've never used it in anger. 😄

I'm reopening this issue because I still want data liberation. I just did a Google search for "community in a box" and I know it's in https://gitter.im/good-labs/community but I can't find it. I'll probably create an issue specific to Gitter and keep this parent issue open until I feel like we have enough data liberation for Good Labs.

This will be the first order of business for @researchdatamaniacs https://gitter.im/Research-Data-Maniacs/community

@vsoch et. al you are absolutely invited to join us as I mentioned at https://gitter.im/good-labs/community/archives/2020/03/04 !

Is this a new GitHub organization, or just a Gitter channel?

vsoch commented 4 years ago

Honestly I'm not super excited about joining an org with "maniacs" in the title, it might not be apparent to you since you are a male, but at least for women just existing and being excited about things we can get a label of hysterical, maniac, crazy, etc.

But for a more important point, I try to limit orgs that I create or join to those that I am fully engaged in. My question here would be why did you make a new GitHub community, why not just use good-labs? I'd like to see good-labs pick up on ideas / projects that we support. Projects focused around data would fall into scope I think.

vsoch commented 4 years ago

Anyway, you are definitely free to make another organization if that's the direction that you want! You are always welcome to do work here too. Since this has been labeled a job for this new org, I'm closing the issue here.
