## yet another tumblr backup script

yatumblr-backup (yet another tumblr backup script) fetches blog info and all raw posts and writes them to a gzipped JSON file. The fetched content is retained in the original JSON format returned by the [Tumblr API](http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/api). If tumblr gets nuked you can post-process the high fidelity JSON later.

Requires a [Tumblr API key](http://www.tumblr.com/oauth/apps) stored in file `apikey`. Compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3.

```

Usage: yatumblr-backup.py  [target directory]

e.g.   yatumblr-backup.py myblog.tumblr.com

e.g.   yatumblr-backup.py myblog.tumblr.com /path/to/backups

```

```

$ ./yatumblr-backup.py myblog.tumblr.com

Total number of posts: 263

Total posts fetched:   263

Done!
