silo.PASTA

Apersonal silo likes and favs archiver.

Overview

PASTA is an indieweb approach to privately archive data published elsewhere. I favd and liked many, many photographs and beautiful content, but during the years, too many silos went out of business and took all that beauty with them.

To prevent this, but also to avoid any potential infringements, I decided to save these works, privately, locally, on my own machine. Inspired by Christian Weiske's idea about source-tagging images, the process does the same: it adds a lot of metadata to the image file itself, as XMP data.

Requirements

It depends a lot of API wrappers for the various services, see requirements.txt, which is only a high level overview of what's needed.
