Fimfarchive
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.
