Fimfarchive aims to release all stories on Fimfiction as a single ZIP-file. The
|
|
|
|
|
archive contains not only stories, but also metadata such as tags, ratings, and
|
|
|
|
|
descriptions. It is organized by author and could be used for backup, offline
|
|
|
|
|
reading, or data mining.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Releases can be found on Fimfarchive's [user profile] at [Fimfiction]. Note
|
|
|
|
|
that this is **not** an official Fimfiction project, so do not send questions
|
|
|
|
|
to Fimfiction staff. Instead, send a private message or post a comment to the
|
|
|
|
|
Fimfarchive user profile.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A new version will be released each season via BitTorrent, approximately once
|
|
|
|
|
every three months. When suitable, an xdelta3 patch will also be provided for
|
|
|
|
|
users who do not wish to redownload unchanged stories.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the archive contains a large number of files. Unzipping it to your
|
|
|
|
|
file system may not be necessary if the archive is to be used together with
|
|
|
|
|
some application. If you are a developer, reading directly from the ZIP-file
|
|
|
|
|
may be preferable.
|
|
|
|
|

|
This repository contains the code for updating and building the archive. While
|
|
|
|
|
the API is not guaranteed to be stable, it can also be used as a library for
|
|
|
|
|
easy access to stories and metadata within the archive.
