Generate a static archive from a Slack data export

Primary LanguageCSS

jekyll-slack

This is Jekyll site is as attempt to create a plug-and-play static Slack archive website. By dumping the unzipped JSON from your slack team into the _data directory, the generators and layouts on this page will create a static page for each channel with the full exported history.

Preprocessing the output

N.B. Slack escapes /'s in a way that causes Jekyll to croak when reading the JSON output. Therefore, you must preprocess every JSON file in the export once to remove the unnecessary escapes:

find _data/ -name '*.json' -exec sed -i '' -e 's/\\\//\//g' {} \;
