textile-facebook

We just pushed some changes to fix this. If you want quick access, take a look at the code over at: https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook. Those fixes will go 'live' later. To get it running on your own system right away, you download the zip (click clone or download) and run it locally.

Ok, this looks like this issue: https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook/issues/4 We'll try to update this soon!

Yes this is a known 'issue': https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook/issues/2. Unfortunately, some browsers don't like large files being dragged-and-dropped like this. The 'solution' for now seems to be to unzip on your computer, remove the messages folder, re-zip, and try again. This should reduce your zip file significantly. Let me know if that helps at all. We're working on a more permanent fix for this in the mean time.

Yes that's right. Also, the code can be inspected here: https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook. For non-coders, if you are concerned about us using your data (we won't!) you can a) trust us, b) ask someone to check for you, or c) go to the page, turn off your wifi (so you aren't connected to the internet), generate your archive and download, close the page, and then click back on wifi... easy peasy :)

Haha, that would be pretty hypocritical of us! Check out the source to be sure we aren't: https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook, and if you really want to be sure that's what we're deploying, use your browser's dev tools to inspect the code (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Common_questi...).

For those wanting to run this locally: git clone https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook cd textile-facebook/ python -m http.server # Python 3.x, or python -m SimpleHTTPServer # Python 2.x

This is an open-source project, in case you don't feel like dropping your zip file in to your browser (even though it does run _in_ your browser): https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook
