CozyWeboob
|
||||
==========
|
||||
|
||||
This is an attempt at using [Weboob](http://weboob.org/) as a
|
||||
[Cozy](http://cozy.io/) [Konnector](https://github.com/cozy-labs/konnectors).
|
||||
It wraps around Weboob, receiving a JSON description of the modules to fetch
|
||||
on `stdin` and returning a JSON of the fetched results on `stdout`.
|
||||
|
||||
Although the primary goal is to wrap around Weboob to use it in Cozy, this
|
||||
script might be of interest for anyone willing to wrap around Weboob and
|
||||
communicate with JSON pipes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
First, you need to have Weboob installed on your system.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, typical command-line usage is:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cat konnectors.json | ./cozyweboob.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Input JSON file
|
||||
|
||||
The JSON file read on `stdin` should have a specific structure. A typical
|
||||
example is given in `konnectors.json.sample`.
|
||||
|
||||
Basically, it consists of a list of maps. Each map corresponds to a given
|
||||
Weboob module to run, with a given set of parameters (then allowing the script
|
||||
to run multiple times the same module with different configurations). Each
|
||||
map should have at the following three keys:
|
||||
* `name` is the name of the Weboob module to run (same name as used in
|
||||
Weboob).
|
||||
* `parameters` is a map of parameters to use for this particular module, as
|
||||
required by the associated Weboob backend.
|
||||
* `id` should be a unique string of your choice, to uniquely identify this run
|
||||
of the specified module with the specified set of parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Output JSON file
|
||||
|
||||
The resulting JSON file, on `stdout` is a map associating the `id` fields as
|
||||
provided in input JSON file to a map of fetched data by this module.
|
||||
|
||||
Each module map has a `cookies` entry containing the cookies used to fetch the
|
||||
data, so that any program running afterwards can download documents.
|
||||
|
||||
The other entries in these maps depend on the module capabilities as defined
|
||||
by Weboob.
