Turbo OONI report downloader
by David Fifield 15 Jun '17

15 Jun '17

I wrote a program that uses the OONI API to download reports and keep a local directory of reports up to date. It's much faster than the Wget loop I used to use and it finishes quickly when there is nothing new to download. git clone https://www.bamsoftware.com/git/ooni-sync.git For example, lately I've had to download a lot of tcp_connect reports. I run it like this: ooni-sync -xz -directory reports.tcp_connect/ test_name=tcp_connect This command downloads the index of tcp_connect reports and only downloads the ones that are not already downloaded. It compresses the downloaded files with xz. The next time I need to update, I run the same command again, and it only downloads reports that are new since the last time. You can use other query parameters supported by the API, like probe_cc, probe_asn, since, and until. For example: ooni-sync -xz -directory reports.is/ probe_cc=IS since=2017-01-01 ooni-sync -xz -directory reports.as25/ probe_asn=AS25 ooni-sync -xz -directory reports.tor-turkey/ test_name=vanilla_tor probe_cc=TR ooni-sync -xz -directory reports.web_connectivity/ test_name=web_connectivity since=2017-01-01 until=2017-01-02 I prefer to keep all the reports compressed on disk, so I always use the -xz option, but by default reports are saved unmodified.
