fcp

Copy data from/to a farcaster hub

Install

• Binaries: pre-built binaries
• From source: Clone the repo, and run make. Copy the generated binaries fcp and fcp-inspect to a location in your $PATH.
• macOS/Homebrew: brew install vrypan/fcp/fcp

Use

• fcp --help to see all options.

• Copy fname's casts, reactions and links from your hub to a local file: fcp fc://hubble.local:2283/fname localfile.data

• Upload the local file to your hub: fcp localfile.data fc://hubble.local:2283 (It will fail, because the messages already exist in the hub)

• Use fc+ssl if the hub is using SSL: fcp fc+ssl://hubble.local:2283/fname localfile.data

• Re-sign messages with a new signer before uploading: fcp local.data fc+ssl://hubble.local:2283/fname --app-key=0x...

Examining local files

The files generated by fcp are binary files containing the marshaled protobuf responses from the hub.

• Convert to json: fcp-inspect localfile.data
• Print out only stats about the file: fcp-inspect localfile.data --stats
