The record

Purpose: Social Harvest describes itself as an open-source social media analytics platform that harvests data from the web for analysis.
Components: The platform comprises a harvester, a reporter API, and a browser-based dashboard for visualizations and reporting.
Collection: The harvester gathers data from services including Twitter and Facebook, and can monitor keywords, URLs, and accounts.
Storage and logs: The harvester can store data in a variety of data stores and write logs to disk for use by tools such as Fluentd.
Configuration: Users configure territories and service API keys in a JSON configuration file; the README says the configuration is portable and does not require a web browser.
API: The harvester exposes configuration through an API, while the reporter returns harvested database information through a read-only API.
Dashboard: The dashboard repository describes a modular, extensible dashboard built with AngularJS, D3.js, and NVD3 to analyze harvested social data.
Database setup: For PostgreSQL harvesting, the README directs users to set up tables using SQL files in the scripts/postgresql directory.
Deployment: The maker’s installation instructions require Go and describe building and running the harvester as a binary.
Security and credentials: The README says users provide social-service access tokens in the configuration and that the REST API server currently has no OAuth support.
License: The software is publicly available under the GPLv3 license; the README says to contact the maker about other commercial licensing options.
Support: The README directs users to GitHub issues for bug reports and to a Gitter channel or Twitter to ask questions or get help.
Intended use: The README says Social Harvest is designed to gather data on its own without getting in the way of other applications.
