A simple script that reads the content of the outbox.json in the current directory, and writes its content in a outbox-public.json file, after removing posts based on their visibility level.
Requires Node.js.
From the tool directory (where packages.json is located):
First install the dependencies:
npm i
Then install the tool globally:
npm i -g
The following commands should be issued from the folder where your outbox.json file is located.
Basic command:
marl cleanup
The script will look for a file named outbox.json in the current folder and output a file named outbox-public.json in the same folder. If such a file already exists, the user is asked to confirm whether it should be overwritten or not.
By default:
- The script will remove posts that are private (mentioned users only) or for followers only; in other words, only the public and unlisted posts are kept.
- Boosts are preserved.
You can specifiy which types of posts get removed from the output based on their visibility level:
marl cleanup -p [CODE]
marl cleanup --privacy [CODE]
The following codes are available:
1: only keep public posts2: only keep public and unlisted posts3: only keep public, unlisted, and followers-only posts4: keep all posts (useful if you only want to remove your boosts; see below)
The default value is 2.
You can exclude all boosts from the output:
marl cleanup -b
marl cleanup --noboosts
marl cleanup --help
