ibid-knab-import

SYNOPSIS

ibid-knab-import knab-sa-url source [config-file]

DESCRIPTION

This utility imports users, last seen information, factoids, and URLs from a Knab bot’s database into an Ibid.

For best results, import directly into a brand new, clean Ibid install.

On import, strings are converted to Unicode, guessing UTF-8 and falling back to detection.

OPTIONS

knab-sa-url
The SQLAlchemy URI for the Knab’s database. The format is mysql://user:pass@hostname/dbname
source
The name in the Ibid bot for the source that the Knab was previously connected to.
config-file
If supplied, this is configuration file is used for locating the Ibid’s database rather than ibid.ini.

FILES

ibid.ini
Locates the database to act upon by looking for the [databases].ibid value in the bot configuration file in the current directory.
