Draco is a script to convert reddit thread to Org document. It accepts a
url & prints the Org document to STDOUT.

It'll also print comments along with their replies. It's limited by
the reddit API.

*Tested on*:
- OpenBSD 6.8 (Perl v5.30.3)

* Why?
I reference things from the web in my Journal & don't want those links
to break so I save them locally. Previously I used to manually archive
the whole thread, this automates it.
* Installation
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
# Clone the project.
git clone https://git.tilde.institute/andinus/draco && \
    cd draco

# Install dependencies. (OpenBSD)
doas pkg_add p5-Unicode-LineBreak p5-JSON-MaybeXS
cpan install HTTP::Tiny

# Install. (Use sudo if doas is not present)
doas make install
#+END_SRC

* Dependencies
** Unicode::LineBreak
This is used to wrap the text at 76 columns. Draco can work without this
module.
** JSON::MaybeXS
This module is required for Draco to work, it can be replaced with any
other module that parses JSON & produces same data structure.
** HTTP::Tiny
Draco can work without this module if you can get the file some other
way.
