Archive of TG23

Archive of TG23 site using WARC standard. See ./browsertrix-crawler folder for files and details.

Browsertrix-crawler (Webrecorder tools)

Generated using go-archive repo that uses browsertrix-crawler to generates an interactive (and timetravelable) archive using the WARC (Web ARChive) standard.

Capturing

To capture a new snapshot of gathering.org run the crawler command in go-archive repo with tg23s crawl configuration file. Then update this repo with additional archive files generated.

PS. As we start using WARC as our new archive standard, we expect to transition to a semi-automatic archive setup, where we generate snapshots of the site on a set interval, but will likely not be relevant for this TG23 repo.

Displaying

The recommended setup is just running go-archive repo/service since that is the known working setup that is used on Gathering.org archive.

To run manually install pywb and use the wayback command and a local collection configuration file (see their docs or examples in go-archive).

PS! We have added a custom acl rule to block loading of client side js. This is to since page is effectively archived as "static" pages, and leaving client side JS triggers fetches to non-archived API routes. The unmodified file is still part of archive.

Due to size of repo/files we use Git LFS for storage of WARC files.
