4chan-json-to-graphml

A tool to convert the JSON representation of a 4chan thread into a GraphML file (for use in R/igraph, etc.).

How to use

Either specify a link to 4chan JSON or a file. Running python3 4chan_json_to_graphml.py -h will demonstrate correct usage.

Where can I get 4chan JSON from?

This tool will work with JSON from the official 4chan website, as well as some archives (desuarchive.org and 4plebs.org are tested and working correctly). For 4chan, just add .json to the regular thread URL. For 4plebs, use https://archive.4plebs.org/BOARD/thread/NUM.json, replacing BOARD with the board abbreviation of the thread you're after, and NUM with the thread number. For desuarchive, use https://desuarchive.org/_/api/chan/thread?board=BOARD&num=NUM, where BOARD is the board abbreviation of the thread you're after, and NUM is the thread number.
