My phpBB Migration Journey (postgresql)

my forum actually also has a previous, dead incarnation (also phpBB) that we have a wget siterip of, so i’m working on an importer for that. parse html files with nokogiri, ingest into intermediary db, and then work with the importer base class to get rows into discourse.

i’m guessing this is an uncommon problem, but if anyone else is facing this issue, maybe i’ll put a little extra polish into it and share it. lmk.

or if someone has already made this and wants to share with me, that’s even better. i’m not that far into the project yet.
