# Hashnode Backup Script With Images
## The Problem
[Hashnode](https://www.hashnode.com) is a great blogging service and has a nice Github action for syncing your posts to a repository as a backup mechanism. However, at the time of writing, the backup mechanism does not extract the images from the CDN.
I "wrote" this backup script using Claude Sonnet 3.5 and after a few iterations I got it to work.
The script will copy your Hashnode blog posts over to a target directory and pulls the images out of the CDN (to prevent it attempting to copy SVGs, I added some specificity for the type of file it would regard as an image; If you use SVGs commonly for images, then modify the script.).
## File Structure
- For every post a folder is create (1)
- Images is created as a subfolder.
- The extracted images are nested within it.
- The post itself is written to `index.md`So I do not have that flag.
## How To Run
- Copy the script (`backup-script.py`)
- Rename `example.env` as `.env`
- Replace it with your values.
You'll need your Hashnode token.
## Suggested Usage
One possible backup strategy to make sure that your Hashnode posts are being backed up regularly:
- Clone this repository onto your server.
- Edit values as above
- Run the Python program as a Cron job according to your desired backup frequency.
