Download All Messages From HashBlue #Blue on O2

The new service from o2 for sending and storing messages online is cool but at the moment there is no easy way to grad all the messages. So I have created the following script to do just that. You will need to log into your HashBlue account and then go here:



When there click on the start link and you will see

"To perform this request with curl, use:

curl -i -X GET "https://api.hashblue.com/account" \
-H "Authorization: OAuth v9rty6aBqtY5Leru0ior6bhu8MAwf79m" \
-H "Accept: application/json"
"

The OAuth token is the value you will need to enter in the script below:

#!/bin/ksh

OAuth=v9rty6aBqtY5Leru0ior6bhu8MAwf79m
i=1
OUTPUT=/Users/cranie/hash-blue/messages.${i}.json
URL="https://api.hashblue.com/messages?since=2005-01-01T00:30Z"

curl -i -X GET "${URL}" -H "Authorization: OAuth ${OAuth}" -H "Accept: application/json" >> ${OUTPUT}
URL=`tail -1 ${OUTPUT} | sed -e 's/.*next_page_uri\"\:\"//g' -e 's/\"..*//g'`
i=$(( ${i} + 1 ))
OUTPUT=/Users/cranie/hash-blue/messages.${i}.json

while [ ${URL} != "" ]
do
curl -i -X GET "${URL}" -H "Authorization: OAuth ${OAuth}" -H "Accept: application/json" >> ${OUTPUT}
URL=`tail -1 ${OUTPUT} | sed -e 's/.*next_page_uri\"\:\"//g' -e 's/\"..*//g'`
i=$(( ${i} + 1 ))
OUTPUT=/Users/cranie/hash-blue/messages.${i}.json
done

Then run. When done you will have your messages in json format in like so:

cranie:hash-blue cranie$ ls -l
