on GitHub

(2023-05-08) Version 3.0.4

Important:

• The real-time stream archiver is no longer used by default. See the WIKI for more info.
• The -S | --stream-only argument has been changed to -l | --live-only, and paired environment variable has changed from TWITCH_ARCHIVER_STREAM_ONLY to TWITCH_ARCHIVER_LIVE_ONLY.
• The -N | --no-stream argument has been changed to -a | --archive-only, and paired environment variable has changed from TWITCH_ARCHIVER_NO_STREAM to TWITCH_ARCHIVER_ARCHIVE_ONLY.
• Twitch-Archiver is now available as a Python package, see here for new installation and usage instructions.
