`panopto-captions-scraper` is an API-only web scraper for retrieving captions from a Panopto folder. It is used to populate [Examplify's](https://github.com/winstxnhdw/Examplify) vector database for essential educational content. All video captions are scraped within the folder (non-recursively) in an ordered manner.

## Usage

Download `PanoptoScraper` from the [releases](https://github.com/winstxnhdw/panopto-captions-scraper/releases/tag/latest) page and set the `COOKIE` environment variable to your NUS-authorised Panopto cookie. Minimally, the only cookie required is `.ASPXAUTH`.

```bash

export COOKIE='.ASPXAUTH=CE423DEAF34ASDASD234NSLKNKJABSD234'

```

Run the scraper and the program will prompt you for the Panopto folder URL.

```bash

./PanoptoScraper

```

## Development

Add your NUS-authorised Panopto cookie to the `.env` file.

```bash

echo COOKIE=$COOKIE > .env

```

Install the dependencies.

```bash

bun install

```

Run the application.

```bash

bun dev

```
