etherdump

Tool to publish etherpad pages to files.

Requirements

* requests (settext)
* python-dateutil, jinja2 (index subcommand)

Installation

pip install python-dateutil jinja2 html5lib
python setup.py install

Example

The APIKEY is the contents of the file APIKEY.txt in the etherpad folder
Please paste the APIKEY: 
	xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The settings are placed in a file called .etherdump/settings.json and are used (by default) by future commands.

subcommands
