Usage
Updating the input data
The script scrape.sh can be used to update the input data. It requires a
POSIX-compliant /bin/sh and cURL. It must me manually edited to select time
periods.
It can be used behind TOR by either setting the https_proxy environment
variable that cURL honors, or, failing that, by running torsocks ./scrape.sh.
Updated data should be regularly saved to the version control system.
Producing figures
The script analyze.py can be used to locally process the data. It can be run
with Python 3.7 or higher. If called with no arguments, it will list all
available operating modes.
Due to the size of the dataset, the first invocation of analyze.py might
take a minute or two to complete. All subsequent invocations should be nearly
instantaneous thanks to the cache.
