It's very simple import script and currently imports only the following content:
* Users
* Messages as Discourse topics/posts
* Attachments
Each channel can be mapped to a category and tags. It uses regular expressions to convert formatted messages ("rich text") into Markdown used by Discourse. In the future we could convert the `blocks` attribute from each message into Markdown instead of applying regular expressions on the `text` attribute.
* File.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
File.exist?
* Dir.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
Dir.exist?
This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.
Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging
Improves the generic database used by some import scripts:
* Adds additional columns for users
* Adds support for attachments
* Allows setting the data type for keys (numeric or string) to ensure correct sorting
