Dockerizing the app

Hey,

Thanks for this great app!

I just wanted to ask what you guys think about dockerizing it? It would be pretty simple building a container and ssh into it and run commands. Later we could build a complete web UI, sort of like YouTubeDL docker containers.

Hi,
Trying to execute by running:

Any ideas?

What to do after making the markdown file?

Could you please tell me what to do in detail?
I have been struggling for 3 hours now and I couldn't do anything. :""(

How to write code to archive ASKfm page directly into a PDF file?

Hello Selbetar

Thanks a lot for this great code. I was actively looking for something like this.

I have been trying to use your code with the latest version V 2.1.0.

As I was using Archival options (-a), it only gave me a handful of scattered media (usually photos and videos) in the designated output folder with no questions or answers saved. Not all media on this page as well. But when I try to use Markdown options (-m) it doesn't download anything and only gets this error message.
"Application is starting Markdown Service
Nothing to generate.
Application is Done: Markdown Service".

Only once I managed to get about 15 MD files. Unfortunately, I couldn't piece them together into one PDF file as shown in the example folder.

Anyway, my question to you is:
Can you please give me a code example of how to archive the Askfm page directly into PDF as in your folder example?

I hope to hear back from you.

Thank you.

Best Regards.

There is, of course, a visuals folder as this is where the .gif and videos have been saved.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance, help appreciated.
