extracted archives not working about slack-export-viewer HOT 4 CLOSED

@hfaran I can take a look as I continue to add some features in the next few weeks 👍

from slack-export-viewer.

Hey @depperson

I have determined that the issue is with the usage of os.path. It currently only works with the full file path from the root directory. Try a path like this for now:
/Users/<youruser>/Documents/MyExtractedSlackArchive

I'm working on a fix right now. Sorry for the wait!

Hi @tscritch
I am having the same problem. I tried with the full file path but nothing. Could you help me? It seems to be a great tool/code:
MacBook-JJ:~ JJ$ slack-export-viewer -z /users/JJ/documents/slack162018

@Mikeldiazot is this /users/JJ/documents/slack162018 a zip file? If so, you need to add the extension to the end for the full file path. It would look like this /users/JJ/documents/slack162018.zip

If it is a directory remove the -z option. Your command would look like this:
slack-export-viewer /users/JJ/documents/slack162018
