# Friendica Archive Browser

A Flutter-based cross platform desktop
application for browsing the Friendica account archive that a user can
generate and update using the [Friendica Archiver](https://gitlab.com/mysocialportal/friendica-archiving-tools/-/tree/main/friendica_archiver). 
The archive takes the form of a folder with a series of JSON files and
a local image archive. Simply point the application at this folder and
begin usage

## Installation

To install the archive browser you simply have to download the latest release from the below links for each platform:
* [Windows x64](https://mysocialportal-friendica-archiving.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com/browser/releases/1.0.0/friendica_archive_browser_v1.0.0_win_x64.zip)
* [macOS x64](https://mysocialportal-friendica-archiving.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com/browser/releases/1.0.0/friendica_archive_browser_v1.0.0_macos_x64.zip)
* [Linux x64](https://mysocialportal-friendica-archiving.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com/browser/releases/1.0.0/friendica_archive_browser_v1.0.0_linux_x64.zip)

Then unzip the folder and you are ready to run. On Mac 
and Windows you will get a warning about an "unknown publisher" since this is beta
software that is not installed or signed through the respective app stores. App store
versions will come in the near future.

## Building
In order to build this application you will need to have installed [Flutter](https://flutter.dev). 
Installation instructions for various platforms are [here](https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/install).
