It uses [fa.js](https://github.com/cheeplusplus/fa.js) to talk to FA. It's all local, nothing leaves your machine (except to FA, obv)\n\n## What's Dumped\n\n- Galleries\n- Submission Metadata\n- Journals\n- A List of Follows/Followers\n- Shouts\n- Profile Information\n- Scraps\n\n## User guide\n\n### Friendly installation\n\nGrab the latest release for your platform from [Releases](https://github.com/cheeplusplus/fa-export-cli/releases).\n\nYou may experience issues on Windows and Mac due to code-signing (or a lack thereof).\n\n### Running\n\n* Create a file called `settings.json` based on `settings.sample.json`. Grab your FA cookies out of your FA browser session and put it in the `cookies` key. They should look like this: `a=asdf; b=asdf; s=1`\n* Run `./fa-export-cli.exe archive user \u003cYOUR USERNAME\u003e` to archive your user account. (or platform equivilent)\n\n### Getting Your Cookie\n\nFor most browsers, you can follow these steps to get your FA cookie to place in `settings.json`\n\n1. Open your browser\n2. Press F12 to open the browser dev tools\n3. Select the \"Network\" tab\n4. Log into or open FA\n5. Select the bottom-most item in the Network Tab\n6. On the right-side panel that opens select \"Headers\"\n7. Under the heading of \"Request Headers\" find \"Cookie\" and copy that entire string not including \"Cookie: \"\n8. Paste this into `settings.json` where indicated\n\nIf the bottom-most item in the Network list doesn't have \"Cookie\", look specifically for an entry where \"File\" is \"/\"\n\n**WARNING:** This cookie represents your login to FA. Don't share it with anyone. If someone gets it they can possibly log in as you!\n\n## Development\n\nRequires node 18 or higher.\n\n* Install node\n* Check out this repo\n* Run `npm install`\n* Run `npm run build`\n* Use `npm start` to go\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcheeplusplus%2Ffa-export-cli","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcheeplusplus%2Ffa-export-cli","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcheeplusplus%2Ffa-export-cli/lists"}
