ArchiveBox is a powerful self-hosted internet archiving solution written in Python. You feed it URLs of pages you want to archive, and it saves them to disk in a variety of formats depending on setup and content within.
ArchiveBox is a powerful internet archiving solution that works like a self-hosted Wayback Machine. You feed it URLs of pages you want to archive (as bookmarks, browser history, RSS, etc.), and it saves them to disk in a variety of formats depending on setup and content within.
**🔢&nbsp; Run ArchiveBox via [Docker Compose (recommended)](#Quickstart), Docker, Apt, Brew, or Pip ([see below](#Quickstart)).**
It supports taking URLs in one at a time, or scheduled importing from browser bookmarks or history, RSS, services like Pocket/Pinboard and more. For a full list see <a href="#input-formats">input formats</a>.
It saves Snapshots of the URLs you feed it as HTML, PDFs, Screenshots, plain text, and more out-of-the-box, with a wide variety of content extracted and preserved automatically (audio/video, git repos, etc.). See <a href="#output-formats">output formats</a> for a full list.
At the end of the day, the goal is to sleep soundly knowing that the part of the internet you care about will be automatically preserved in multiple, durable long-term formats that will be accessible and sharable for many decades.
**🔢&nbsp; First, get ArchiveBox via [Docker Compose (recommended)](#Quickstart), or Docker, Apt, Brew, Pip ([see below](#Quickstart)).**
1. Once you have ArchiveBox, run this in a new empty folder to get started
```bash
apt/brew/pip3/etc install archivebox
archivebox init --setup # run this in an empty folder
archivebox add 'https://example.com' # start adding URLs to archive
curl https://example.com/rss.xml | archivebox add # or add via stdin
archivebox schedule --every=day https://example.com/rss.xml
archivebox init --setup # this creates a new collection
```
For each URL added, ArchiveBox saves several types of HTML snapshot (wget, Chrome headless, singlefile), a PDF, a screenshot, a WARC archive, any git repositories, images, audio, video, subtitles, article text, [and more...](#output-formats).
2. Then add some URLs you want to archive
```bash
archivebox add 'https://example.com' # one at a time
curl https://example.com/rss.xml | archivebox add # piped via stdin
archivebox schedule --every=day https://example.com/rss.xml # frequent imports
```
<small>For each URL added, ArchiveBox saves several types of HTML snapshot (wget, Chrome headless, singlefile), a PDF, a screenshot, a WARC archive, any git repositories, images, audio, video, subtitles, article text, .</small>
3. Then view your archive collection
```bash

ls ./archive/*/index.json # or browse directly via the filesystem
```
You can then manage your snapshots via the [filesystem](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Usage#disk-layout), [CLI](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Usage#CLI-Usage), [Web UI](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Usage#UI-Usage), [SQLite DB](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/blob/dev/archivebox/core/models.py) (`./index.sqlite3`), [Python API](https://docs.archivebox.io/en/latest/modules.html) (alpha), [REST API](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/496) (alpha), or [desktop app](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/electron-archivebox) (alpha).
At the end of the day, the goal is to sleep soundly knowing that the part of the internet you care about will be automatically preserved in multiple, durable long-term formats that will be accessible for decades (or longer).
