The
writeBufferRequestBacklog()
method can be used to export the channel backlog (chat history). This method now uses the parameters as-is as defined by the underlying network protocol. This is a BC break with existing code, so this PR adds relevant documentation, examples and tests:Additionally, this PR implements the
writeBufferRequestBacklogAll()
method which allows you to fetch the backlog from all buffers/channels at once:This PR includes a new example which shows how both methods can be used to export the chat history. This can be used as a base to build an interactive chat application or to export this to any kind of export format, such as RSS/Atom etc. (make sure to follow https://github.com/clue/quasselio for details).
