Exporting Content for Offline Usage

The discussion revolves around bulk exporting content from Discourse for offline usage. nairolf initiated the conversation, seeking a way to export over 300 how-to pages as PDFs for emergency access.

nairolf found @zh99998’s suggestion to print individual pages as PDFs inadequate for bulk export. erlend_sh shared a Ruby script by @fantasticfears, but nairolf lacked the necessary Ruby skills to modify it.

Other users, including huynhthai824 and pihentagy, expressed interest in exporting content to Evernote or achieving bulk export with linked pages. pihentagy also sought a more authentic or out-of-the-box solution for exporting pages beyond the shared Ruby script.

Hi,

I’m going to use discourse to create a howto and knowledge database. Is there a way to export all the content as pdf or a similar offline readable file format? Export would be necessary to have access in an emergency case.

Cheers

  1. right click the page
  2. click “print”
  3. select save to pdf as printer

@fantasticfears wrote this download script as part of the learndiscourse project. If you know some basic Ruby, or could get ahold of someone who does, it shouldn’t be hard to tweak the script to suit your own needs.

Unfortunately I’ve no ruby skills. Maybe somebody else did already solve my attention?

Can we export to evernote or sync with evernote?

También estoy pensando en usar Discourse como wiki. También nos gustaría tener una exportación masiva con enlaces entre páginas (donde las páginas son los primeros mensajes y los demás son solo comentarios). ¿Hay una forma más auténtica (o integrada) de exportar páginas que ese gist?
