Archive your Jaiku on jaikuarchive.com!

As you may have heard, Jaiku is going away on January 15th. Perhaps you want to save your posts on Jaiku Archive. Here’s an easy way to do it, if you have a Mac or Unix machine.

Note that currently, you need Xcode on your Mac to be able to run this. Sorry for not realizing this up front. While it is free from the App Store, it would take you a while to download and install. However, I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to rewrite the script to not require Xcode anytime soon.

If you have a Mac, hop into Terminal and enter the following, substituting “plindberg” for your Jaiku username.

If you’re on a Unix machine, you probably know what to do. But you’ll need Ruby 1.8.7 or later, and RubyGems.

bash < <(curl -s fleecelabs.se/jaikuslurp/) -s plindberg

The script remembers where it was, so just hit Ctrl-C to abort and then run it once again to resume. Or if it happens to crash. If you want to start over, do a rm /tmp/jaikuslurp*state.txt.

If you’re on Windows, I’m sorry. But if you have any ideas on how to get this to run easily on Windows, please post a comment below.

(If you want to know what this script does, view its source here. And if you want the old version, see this.)
