(i have already made this in other chans, i need all the help i can get)
so i'm motivated to planing to create a archive for threads and websites. thread and web writings that are important enough, have quality, and or can be used to counter western media and history naratives.
the archive i want to create for the threads is different from things like internet archive or things like that because i want to actually save all the file that is uploaded unlike regular archive where not every file and many that are uploaded in the thread were not saved in the archive.
if i can i want to make a website for this but i do not have any experience about creating website and coding nor can i do it. i also have special-ed mental that make me unable to learn coding like normal people so its hard.
my main plan is to use httrack and use every file format list from wikipedia and other websites, then copy that list to httrack file format selection thing
i want help from every people here, so if you can please send something
also adhd brained, if anyone can please help me tidy the "list of file format" list on wikipedia.
delete whatever decription/writing near it, make it sort of like a list like the pic i post.
add +*. to the front.
+*.[INSERT FILE FORMAT]

I used to know people who were obsessed with this imageboard archival shit years and years ago
Literally all of this unpaid effort just to archive the worst slop on the internet even against the wishes of the userbase creating that content
They even tried to acquire special magnetic tape drives that would last longer
It was hilariously strange in retrospect, although at the time I was just interested in their knowledge on sysadmin'ing

>>19821there is only two IB like this with content like this and quality like this, it should be archived
No.19873
>>19814you can see what files are allowed from the codebase, take meds and go to work
>>19816archivebox is a thing btw, idk if it exactly suits your needs but it might be interesting to you
>>19821fr
>>19811anon why tf do you not just keep some form of personal knowledge organiztion, and when you see something cool you copy it down? Also stuff you read from anons on a forum should be taken with a grain of salt - many posts could be stripped down to some interesting research avenues, which could be what you actually save/write down
Keeping a [bunch of text] whole post only makes sense if you really appreciate the writing as a quote, for its special value in conveying something elegantly for example. Saving a [dialogue] thread makes pretty much no sense ever even though it might have in some rare cases entertainment or educational value… its so bulky, and for what?

I may be an idiot, but… WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS THREAD ABOUT??
OP hasn't archived shit, it's just text files with filetype lists. He spent a month putting a dot in front of extensions he took from Wikipedia.
>>21105>from kate gang(???) leftychan.orgit's filetypes, one of which is .apk, I didn't know leftychan.org hosted APKs.
No.21113
>>21110the filetype list txt files are for archiving tool.
to copy paste in httrack.
hence why i want a list full of all the file kind taken straight out of wikipedia.
this thread is the creation of my autismretardationspecialeducationadhdbrain.

>>21113>autismretardationspecialeducationadhdbrainbut anon, I have autismretardationadhdbrain and that's why I hate things that are complicated. Now that I understand what you want to do, I can tell you you could have used a single wget line.
wget -mpckE --user-agent="" -e robots=off --wait 1 www.foo.com
Explanation:
https://dheinemann.com/posts/2022-02-05-archiving-a-website-with-wgetThen with { } and the && operator (or a shell script) you can download all kinds of websites, e.g.
#!/bin/sh
wget -mpckE --user-agent="" -e robots=off --wait 1 $1
echo "done"
save as archive.sh, chmod +x it and then in terminal:
$ ./script.sh www.leftypol.{org,net}wget will automatically convert all pages to .html, make the links relative, and you will have an offline mirror of the website.
