## Archive Layout
All of ArchiveBox's state (including the index, snapshot data, and config file) is stored in a single folder called the "ArchiveBox data folder". All `archivebox` CLI commands must be run from inside this folder, and you first create it by running `archivebox init`.
The on-disk layout is optimized to be easy to browse by hand and durable long-term. The main index is a standard `index.sqlite3` database in the root of the data folder (it can also be exported as static JSON/HTML), and the archive snapshots are organized by date-added timestamp in the `./archive/` subfolder.
```bash
./
index.sqlite3
ArchiveBox.conf
archive/

index.html
index.json
screenshot.png
media/some_video.mp4
warc/1617687755.warc.gz
git/somerepo.git
...
```
Each snapshot subfolder `./archive/<timestamp>/` includes a static `index.json` and `index.html` describing its contents, and the snapshot extrator outputs are plain files within the folder.

## Static Archive Exporting
You can export the main index to browse it statically without needing to run a server.
*Note about large exports: These exports are not paginated, exporting many URLs or the entire archive at once may be slow. Use the filtering CLI flags on the `archivebox list` command to export specific Snapshots or ranges.*
```bash
# archivebox list --help
archivebox list --html --with-headers > index.html # export to static html table
archivebox list --json --with-headers > index.json # export to json blob
archivebox list --csv=timestamp,url,title > index.csv # export to csv spreadsheet
# (if using docker-compose, add the -T flag when piping)
# docker-compose run -T archivebox list --html --filter-type=search snozzberries > index.json
```
The paths in the static exports are relative, make sure to keep them next to your `./archive` folder when backing them up or viewing them.

ArchiveBox can be configured via environment variables, by using the `archivebox config` CLI, or by editing the `ArchiveBox.conf` config file directly.
