This rips byte.co user posts by byte.co/username URLs.

Category

This change is exactly one of the following (please change [ ] to [x]) to indicate which:

  • a new Ripper

Description

This adds a ripper for the Byte mobile app (byte.co). It uses byte.co/username URLs since the app itself has no public URLs. For example byte.co/grant.

Testing

Required verification:

  • I've verified that there are no regressions in mvn test (there are no new failures or errors).
  • I've verified that this change works as intended.
    • Downloads all relevant content.
    • Downloads content from multiple pages (as necessary or appropriate).
    • Saves content at reasonable file names (e.g. page titles or content IDs) to help easily browse downloaded content.
  • I've verified that this change did not break existing functionality (especially in the Ripper I modified).

Optional but recommended:

  • I've added a unit test to cover my change.

I have not added any tests because the automated nature would make it more likely for the account used to get banned. If the ripper does stop working, we'll probably need to create another Byte account and update the AUTH_HEADER value.
