Archive messages from OkCupid

okc-archive

This is a simple script which lets you scrape an OKC conversation.

Usage

1. Make yourself an auth.ini file that looks like this:

    [auth]
    username=your_username
    password=your_password
   

2. Run either ./archive URL_TO_CONVERSATION to archive a single conversation, or ./archive -a to archive all your conversations.

3. Celebrate! The messages/ directory will contain your conversations! They will be named after the user you're talking to, and contain the thread ID from the URL.

Future

The code could do with refactoring. And tests. And quality control.
