Save an archived copy of the websites you visit (the actual *content* of each site, not just the list of links). Can archive entire browsing history, or just links matching a filter or bookmarks list.

ArchiveBox can import links from:
2018-06-10 22:32:51 +00:00
2018-09-20 16:32:41 +00:00
- < img src = "https://nicksweeting.com/images/bookmarks.png" height = "22px" /> Browser history or bookmarks (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE, Opera)
2017-10-30 11:29:25 +00:00
- < img src = "https://getpocket.com/favicon.ico" height = "22px" /> Pocket
- < img src = "https://pinboard.in/favicon.ico" height = "22px" /> Pinboard
2018-05-31 06:26:41 +00:00
- < img src = "https://nicksweeting.com/images/rss.svg" height = "22px" /> RSS or plain text lists
2017-10-30 11:29:25 +00:00

2018-06-10 22:32:51 +00:00
2018-06-11 16:39:31 +00:00
For each site, it outputs (configurable):
2018-06-10 22:32:51 +00:00
- Browsable static HTML archive (wget)
- PDF (Chrome headless)
- Screenshot (Chrome headless)
2018-10-23 16:10:36 +00:00
- HTML after 2s of JS running (Chrome headless)
2018-06-10 22:32:51 +00:00
- Favicon
- Submits URL to archive.org
- Index summary pages: index.html & index.json

2018-06-10 22:32:51 +00:00
The archiving is additive, so you can schedule `./archive` to run regularly and pull new links into the index.
2018-06-12 05:52:32 +00:00
All the saved content is static and indexed with json files, so it lives forever & is easily parseable, it requires no always-running backend.
