moonshine

Given four bytes, download a random file from the UK Web Archive, e.g.

moonshine -ffb d0cf11e0 | xargs wget

Full usage:

  -ffb string
        first four bytes of file to find (default "0baddeed")
  -gif
        return a single gif (hex "47494638")
  -list
        list the first five pages from page number
  -page int
        specify a page number to return from, [max: 1000] (default 1)
  -random
        return a random link to a file (default true)
  -sample
        return a sampled list of up to 20 files across the maximum no. results
  -stats
        return statistics for the resource
  -version
        Return version

Sample mode

Sample mode has been added to moonshine to return a more varied selection of the desired file format example to file format researchers. The results will be selected across a distribution of all the pages available to the Shine interface.

To use sample mode you can do the following:

moonshine --sample --ffb cafebeef | xargs wget

Developing moonshine

Goreleaser

Testing goreleaser can be done as follows:

  • goreleaser release --skip-publish

Valid semantic versioning looks as follows:

  • vMM.mm.pp-rc.n

Where -rc.n are optional, e.g. used purely for release candidates.
