I wrote a program to create a web page with all the posts of a Steemian

For a long time, I have maintained manually an HTML file that listed all my posts on Steemit, with their dates. Evey week or so, I was adding to the file my new posts.

However, last June I stopped updating the file for several weeks. When I realized that, I was discouraged and did not want to spend a lot of time to catch up.

Then, recently I realized that It should be possible to build such an HTML file automatically, using a program that I could write.

Of course, if you maintain a full node, with all the posts on the STTEM blockchain, it is not a real challenge. But I do not maintain such a node.

I wrote my program with the language I know the best: Ada.
And I wrote it so that it can be used for any Steemian, not only myself.

Here is the main procedure for the program:

To get the data, the program gets web pages from steemd.com and scans these web pages.

An example of the result of the program is this post from Hive account@marcel.dubrovnik.

I have run my program for several Steemians and sent them the result. They were very happy to get their HTML file.

Yesterday, I run the program for Hive account@papa-pepper, and it took my computer more than 11 hours to build the HTML file of his more than 2,500 posts, starting in July 2016.
