The screenshot file is missing when pulling API data from the official website
Hello, big man
After I set up the project and finished running poetry run tools/import_from_instance.py
Found missing screenshots file, please tell me what to do?

Now the situation is that my web page has a screenshot of the button, but there is no image on the back end, resulting in 404.
Will poetry run scrape all of them and then overwrite the screenshot file to fix this?
Please tell me what to do.

I hope you can help me, thank you

Heyhey,
I noticed this too but now looking at how big the screenshots folder gets in just a couple of days, is this even feasible to do?

Because as I saw in another issue recently the site is having uptime issues already so opening this image export would have to be super limited in order to not just DOS the site constantly right?

Maybe it could be an option to put the images in a minio s3 server and host that separately, however that might add too much complexity and license problems for a questionable return.

Or do you have any other ideas on how to achieve this image export feature? I know relatively little about the main instance but it just runs on one server currently right?

Hello,

Just for your information, we have something like 6K screenshots from scraping and more than 23k images extracted from Telegram channels...
If we check the size for all data it's more than 7.5Go. So not sure about using the API is the best way... (and telegram only use 1.5Go)
So we need some time to thing about the best way. :/

Regards,

BTW, we upgraded the server today due to physical failure on the older :(
