Looking for maintainer(s)

Closed this issue ยท 23 comments

I haven't been actively using or developing this project for quite a while now and haven't had time to respond to new issues and PRs. I would like to find someone more qualified than me to continue maintenance and/or development of this project which seems to be quite popular. If anyone would like to help out, please comment here or send me an email.

I am interested in helping! I intend to use this for work-related things and would love to get involved keeping it alive.

This seems to be a promising library. Happy to help if needed.

happy to help if needed.

Using this inside of my scraper framework so I would love to help out as well!

Count me in too

Thanks for the responses! In absence of any ideas on vetting or whatever, I'm going to just set branch protection and add collaborators.

Also a heads up, I think I'll be renaming my GitHub account soon, so an upcoming change in URL shouldn't be concerning.

@causal-agent Is there a reason why the scraper.1 file has been uploaded to the repository? I have no clue what that file is and what its purpose is.

That is the manual page for the scraper bin utility.

I can help too

I'd love to maintain/contribute - this library is great.

This is an extremely useful library! Count me in!

Did you find a maintainer? :)

I'm willing to take over the project.

@causal-agent Willing to help here. Supporting @apkrieg

Perhaps someone can start a Discord and invite everyone?

Since there is no response from CasualAgent, Is someone already started a fork (perhaps with a new name) to continue the development?

I have created a fork of this repo named dissector. I am currently working on:

  • renaming the project
  • updating the dependencies
  • switching the Rust language version to 2021
  • publishing the crate on crates.io

After these steps I will start working on new features and overall improvements.

I am looking for contributors, if someone's willing to help write it here.

@cfvescovo if you're willing to do that work, I can give you commit access here and permission to publish the scraper crate (assuming I can figure out how). Sorry I haven't been paying attention to this. Without any development happening it's impossible to tell who needs access.

@causal-agent Thank you! I will delete my fork and commit my changes to your repo.

I think you can give other people publishing permissions on crates.io by using the command cargo owner. Docs: cargo reference - publishing crates

@cfvescovo I sent an owner invite through the crates.io interface

Thank you. I have accepted your invite

Perhaps someone can start a Discord and invite everyone?

I have created a Gitter community for this repo. Link: Gitter - scraper-rs community
