ArchiveBox is a powerful self-hosted internet archiving solution written in Python 3. You feed it URLs of pages you want to archive, and it saves them to disk in a variety of formats depending on the configuration and the content it detects.

Running `archivebox init` in a folder creates a collection with a self-contained `index.sqlite3` index, `ArchiveBox.conf` config file, and folders for each snapshot under `./archive/<timestamp>/`, with human-readable `index.html` and `index.json` files within.

If you only want to archive a single site, you can run `archivebox oneshot` to avoid having to create a whole collection.
For each URL added with `archivebox add`, 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) For each URL added with `archivebox add`, 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)

Archived content is browseable and managable locally with the CLI commands like `archivebox status` or `archivebox list ...`, via the built-in web UI `archivebox server`, directly through the filesystem `./archive/<timestamp>` folders, or via the [Python API](https://docs.archivebox.io/en/latest/modules.html) (alpha) or [REST API](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/496) (alpha).

You can also self-host your `archivebox server` on a public domain to provide archive.org-style public access to your snapshots.

# Overview
ArchiveBox is a command line tool, self-hostable web-archiving server, and Python library all-in-one. It can be installed on Docker, macOS, and Linux/BSD, and Windows. You can download and install it as a Debian/Ubuntu package, Homebrew package, Python3 package, or a Docker image. No matter which install method you choose, they all provide the same CLI, Web UI, and on-disk data format.
To use ArchiveBox you start by creating a folder for your data to live in (it can be anywhere on your system), and running `archivebox init` inside of it. That will create a sqlite3 index and an `ArchiveBox.conf` file. After that, you can continue to add/export/manage/etc using the CLI `archivebox help`, or you can run the Web UI (recommended). If you only want to archive a single site, you can run `archivebox oneshot` to avoid having to create a whole collection.
The [CLI](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Usage#CLI-Usage) is considered "stable", the ArchiveBox [Python API](https://docs.archivebox.io/en/latest/modules.html) and [REST API](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/496) are "alpha", and the [desktop app](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/desktop) is "alpha".
