About cjaewon/velog-backup

This is a command-line tool for backing up articles from Velog, a Korean blogging platform. It downloads your published posts as markdown files and automatically retrieves any images embedded in those posts, updating the markdown links to point to the local copies.

The tool is designed for users who want to maintain a personal backup of their Velog content or those who publish to both Velog and GitHub Pages simultaneously. It operates through a simple CLI interface where you specify your Velog username, and the backed-up files are organized into two folders: a content directory containing markdown files and an images directory containing downloaded media. The tool supports optional parameters including request delays to avoid server strain, certificate authentication for accessing private posts, and a detailed mode that adds series information and thumbnail metadata to the markdown frontmatter.

Written in JavaScript and built for Node.js, the project addresses a practical need for content creators working across multiple blogging platforms by automating the export and conversion process that would otherwise require manual effort.
