Downloading Articles

# Download all articles from scratch:
# This takes a few days and may need babysitting in case of crashes.
bin/download-all

# Dowloading the last 140 articles per category:
# If you have a recent snapshot, running this once is how you should get it up to date.
P=1 bin/download-all

Cron

To periodically update the database with new articles, replace the value of DSS_ROOT with the path to where DSS is on your system, and place the following in your crontab.

DSS_ROOT=/path/to/dss
  55  *    *    *    *  cd $DSS_ROOT && bin/articles-update

Environment Variables

PATH

Make sure your PATH includes node_modules/.bin. Running micro-dev probably won't work otherwise.

DSS_DB

By default, this code assumes the database is at ./main.db in the root of the project directory. If you want to use another database, you may specify its full path in DSS_DB.
