How do I list all members in a Launchpad team?

Question

How can I produce a text file list of all members in Launchpad team?

For example, this page only shows the list of users in batches of 75: http://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers/+members

I would like to get the whole list in one text dump.

Answer 1

As explained by @Rinzwind, you'll need to make multiple queries to take into account the pagination or use python and launchpadlib to handle the pagination for you:

>>> team = launchpad.people['launchpad-beta-testers']
>>> len(team.members)
2238

Answer 2

• Altering the URL

Besides mailing someone to get a list of members I doubt it will be possible to get this list in 1 go. The URL has a parameter in it to expand the amount of names but the maximum amount of members you can get on 1 page is 300.

https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers/+members?active_batch=300

That would make it 8 pages you need to copy/paste. This would be the quickest 1 time usable solution.

• alternate solution...

If you can code you could make a script for this. Maybe someone can expand on this:

• wget https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers/+members?active_batch=300 --no-check-certificate will get the 1st 300.
• wget https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers/+members?active_batch=300&active_memo=300&active_start=300 --no-check-certificate will get the 2nd 300.
• wget https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers/+members?active_batch=300&active_memo=600&active_start=600 --no-check-certificate will get the 3rd 300.

With a combination of grep, sed, awk, regexes and maybe some other tools it should be possible to get the names from commandline.

I download these 3 to 3 text files and the command...

grep class=\"sprite\ person\" * |more

gets me all the lines that have a name in it (with a bit of overhead) for this file.

You can use https://help.launchpad.net/API/launchpadlib for this if you want to code a program for it.
