# Overview
The Workplace Extractor package was written to allow a complete extraction of posts form a Workplace installation. It provides the following key features:
* Access to the SCIM and GRAPH API provided by Facebook;
* Asyncronous calls to increase speed;
* Lists of **posts**, **members**, **groups**, **comments**, **event attendees** are exported to CSV files;
* A ranking of most relevant members can be created based on the number of interctions (comments and reactions)
* The interaction network can be wxported to a GEXF file;
# Usage
### Installation
To get the Workplace Extractor package, either fork this github repo or use Pypi via pip.
```sh
$ pip install workplace_extractor
```
### How to use it
You can simple run a python script with the code below:
```sh
import workplace_extractor
workplace_extractor.run()
```
This package uses [argparse](https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html) and [Gooey](https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey) to create an end-user-friendly front end GUI application. Just run the app and a dialog will show up asking for the input parameters.
The application will offer some extraction options:
1. **POSTS** - used for extracting all posts published in a given period of time or feed, from a given author etc.

**You must have an access token with full access to both SCIM and GRAPH API in order to the extraction to work**
A config.ini file con be used to set some key parameters. Two required ones are:
* **output_dir** - path the folder where the output will be stored
* **access_token** - path to a file containing the Workplace access token
# Warning
As many http calls are made during the export process, your program may take a while to finish, depending on the size of your Workplace installation. As a reference, on an installation with around 85,000 users, 3,000 groups and 110,000 posts the exectution takes around 4 hours to complete.
