How to download

Go to Releases and download the correct version for your computer:

• If you use Windows, it's psfs_windows_x64.exe
• If you use Linux, it's psfs_linux_x64
• If you use macOS, it depends:
  • if you computer has Apple Silicone (eg. M1 to M5 chip), it's psfs_mac_arm64
  • otherwise, it's psfs_mac_x64

Move the file to some folder where you want to use it (in this tutorial, we'll assume you moved it to your Desktop), and rename it to psfs. Then, follow instructions for your platform.

macOS

Open your Terminal app, then navigate to the folder containing psfs, for example:

cd Desktop

Now, you need to make the program executable by running the following two commands. You only need to do this once.

chmod +x ./psfs
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ./psfs

Now, you can use the app.

Linux

Follow the macOS tutorial, except for the xattr command: you only need to run the chmod one.

Windows

Ask your IT support, hahah.

How to use

In your terminal, navigate to the folder where psfs lives.

To list all available options, do this:

./psfs fetch --help

To download all mentions of Ukraine from the year 2025 and save them into the 2025.docx Word document, do this:

./psfs fetch "Ukrajin" --all-time --filter-year 2025 --format docx --output 2025.docx

How to update

Delete the psfs file you already have, and follow the How to download tutorial again.
