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 varitety of formats depending on the configuration and the content it detects.
Your archive can be managed through the command line with commands like `archivebox add` or through the built-in Web UI `archivebox server`. It can ingest bookmarks from a service like Pocket/Pinboard, your entire browsing history, RSS feeds, or URLs one at a time.
Your archive can be managed through the command line with commands like `archivebox add`, through the built-in Web UI `archivebox server`, or via the Python library API (beta). It can ingest bookmarks from a browser or service like Pocket/Pinboard, your entire browsing history, RSS feeds, or URLs one at a time. You can also schedule regular/realtime imports with `archivebox schedule`.
The main index is a self-contained `data/index.sqlite3` file, and each snapshot is stored as a folder `data/archive/<timestamp>/`, with an easy-to-read `index.html` and `index.json` within. For each page, ArchiveBox auto-extracts many types of assets/media and saves them in standard formats, with out-of-the-box support for: 3 types of HTML snapshots (wget, Chrome headless, singlefile), a PDF snapshot, a screenshot, a WARC archive, git repositories, images, audio, video, subtitles, article text, and more. The snapshots are browseable and managable offline through the filesystem, the built-in webserver, or the Python API.

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 is considered "stable", the ArchiveBox Python API and REST APIs are in "beta", and the [desktop app](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/desktop) is in "alpha" stage.
