LJSM  
LJ-to-WAP proxy
Livejournal on mobile phone


Description

This is the Livejournal backup tool. Saves posts, memories, graphics. Converts relative links to absolute. Creates contents page, supports http proxy.


08/05/2006: Steven R. Loomis sent me a patch, that brings back the functionality of -X switch to LJSM that dissapeared from version 2.8.
ljsm_X_patch.diff. Please contact him <srl(at)monkey.sbay.org> directly if there is any problem with this patch.

Usage

perl ljsm.pl [-r -m -a -c -O -U -i [0|1|2|3] -I -u user:password -p proxyURL -d yyyy/mm[:yyyy/mm]] user1 user2 ...

perl ljsm.pl -x user1 user2 ...

perl ljsm.pl -X -u user:password [-r -O -I -p proxtURL -d yyyy/mm:yyyy/mm]



-a = save memories AND posts

-c = save posts without comments

-r = resume processing if there is already local file for the given post

-m = save memories instead of posts

-O = overwrite existing files (NOT recommended)

-i [1|2|3] = download icons (1) userpics (2) or all graphics (3) referenced in posts

-I = ignore network errors and continue fetching posts

-x = rebuild index file and exit

-u user:password = specify user:password pair for LJ login on the command prompt

-U = make UTF-8 to localt charset conversion

-p proxyURL = use proxyURL as a http proxy

-d yyyy/mm[:yyyy/mm] = save posts back to the specified date or in the specified date range
