For converting adium logs to decently sexy HTML

0readme.md

adium log export to HTML

this shit is for exporting this weirdass xml out into some sane HTML.

• run rename.sh to kill the whitespaces in your xml filenames
  • alternatively fix my htmlify.sh to not break on whitespace'd filenames
    • UPDATE: check this comment on a quick fix to avoid this rename script. BOOM! thx @kwef!
• run htmlify.sh
  • htmlify has a hardcoded destination directory.
  • htmlify also expects the format-html.* files to be up one folder from it.
• enjoy a bigass directory of all your logs all together with ugly filenames but at least they have nice styles and happy markup.

yay

htmlify.sh

#!/bin/bash

file=0

for i in `find . -name "*.xml"` ; 
  
  do xsltproc -o "$i.html" ../format-html.xsl "$i";

  # move that HTML file to this HARDCODED FOLDER NAME
  # YES YOU SHOULD PROBABLY CHANGE THIS OR SOMETHING
  mv "$i.html" ~/mylogs/gtalk ;
  
  file=$(($file+1))
  
done

echo Total files: $file

rename.sh

# i had to do this bullshit because ...
# my htmlify `find` command choked on whitespace filename
# see also: i'm a noob.

find . -name '* *' | while read file;
do
  target=`echo "$file" | sed 's/ /_/g'`;
  echo "Renaming '$file' to '$target'";
  mv "$file" "$target";
done;

I figured out how to solve your whitespace issue in the htmilfy.sh script. Set the IFS environment variable at the start of your script, by saying: IFS=$'\n'. What this does is makes it such that fields are interpreted not to be broken on spaces; only on newlines.

To demonstrate this, compare the output of IFS=$'\n'; for i in find . -name "*.xml"; do echo "$i"; done to the same command not prefaced by the setting of the IFS variable. You'll note that the use of the IFS setting leads to each file being output on its own line, not broken by spaces, whereas not setting IFS causes files to be broken on spaces.

Hope this helps!

So dope!! thanks a bunch. I added a quick note :)

You're welcome! :)

I just came across this, hoping to find a way to export my old logs to HTML especially since I doubt Adium will continue development to offer 64-bit support. I made the modification to the htmlify.sh file but are there any other locations and how do I run this? Do I just execute from the terminal and how does it know where my Adium logs will be? Thanks
