..or all

% npm run prepublish && find data/law -type d -depth 2 -exec ./node_modules/.bin/lsc law2json.ls --outdir output/law/json {} +

Build git commits (JSON -> Markdown -> git)

% (cd output/law && git init)
% for dir in `find output/law/json -type d -depth 2`; do
      ./json2git.py $dir/law_history.json output/law

Crawl the source

The source pages are committed so that we can check for updates. But if you need to fetch the source yourself, here is the instruction

0. Update the first link in ./prepare_categories.sh manually

http://lis.ly.gov.tw/lgcgi/lglaw -> 分類瀏覽 -> 任意一筆
set $PORTAL env variable to the url

1. Crawls the portal to prepare category links.

% ./prepare_categories.sh  # probably need to update the link manually
% ./fetcher.sh data/file-link.txt

2. Fetch law pages

Fetch a single category

% npm run prepublish && ./node_modules/.bin/lsc prepare_law.ls --cat 憲法 --dir data/law
% ./fetcher.sh data/law/憲法/file-link.tsv

..or fetch every categories

% npm run prepublish
% for cat in data/law/*; do
      ./node_modules/.bin/lsc prepare_law.ls --cat `basename $cat` --dir data/law
      ./fetcher.sh $cat/file-link.tsv
  done

3. Fetch law pages (all revision)

Generate file-link-all-revision.tsv for single category

% npm run prepublish && ./node_modules/.bin/lsc prepare_law_all_revision.ls --cat 憲法 --dir data/law
% ./fetcher.sh -r data/law/憲法/file-link-all-revision.tsv

..or for all categories

% npm run prepublish
% for cat in data/law/*; do
      ./node_modules/.bin/lsc prepare_law_all_revision.ls --cat `basename $cat` --dir data/law
      ./fetcher.sh -r $cat/file-link-all-revision.tsv
  done
