Wanna help put dying web stuff into Archive.org ?

You can run an Archive Team container on your computer! It'll help crawl the web and putting stuff into archive.org, based on the current projects.

You don't have to be super technical to do this, but a little computer skill will help you out.

Walkthrough below the cut (tl;dr docker compose + this config, or a vm from here):

#archive.org #archive team #archive team warrior #Digital Preservation #web archival #imgur #tutorial #The Cohost Global Feed

the imgur archiver is up

also it's using links fetched from other archived public webpages (as opposed to guessing all imgur urls), so its less likely to pick up anyone's secret images they don't wish to be archived

if you missed it, imgur got bought out and announced that they'll be deleting old images and also any NSFW content starting May 15

...

EDIT: if you feel adventurous and want to spin up some freebie cloud machines to do more archival, here's some free trials from cloud providers:

Google Cloud trial with $300 of credits
DigitalOcean trial with $200 of credits
Azure trial with $200 of credits

(not affiliated, just want to enable you to go make a bunch of extra archivers if you want)

#imgur #archive team warrior #archive.org #web archival

is there a reason you would go for the docker approach as opposed to the virtualbox one

cat @catball4/20/2023, 11:35 PM

It's a little more lightweight / faster, plus watchtower updates are nice.

I mainly used docker since I already have some containers running on my closet server, but didn't already have virtualbox installed

both are reasonable choices!

~~this whips ass, how would I go about getting this running on a headless server? all the virtualisation options seem to need a desktop environment.~~

I can't read, this is actually quite easy to set up on a machine with no desktop environment. thanks!

cat @catball4/21/2023, 2:31 AM

check out the steps below "read more", it's all about how to do it with docker compose headlessly!

edit: no worries! :)

if anyone else runs into the issue where docker compose complains about an "unknown shorthand flag" and docker-compose just prints usage info, try:

docker compose up -d bind watchtower at_warrior

cat @catball5/9/2023, 10:07 PM

ah! I've been using up when doing this, I updated the command above; my bad for typoing that!

cat @catball5/9/2023, 10:07 PM

also thank you for the could init script! :)

do you know if the hyper-v image for this is still a thing? i distinctly remember there being one

cat @catball5/9/2023, 5:00 PM

I know on the wiki they have an OVA image and steps for vmware and virtualbox, but I'm not aware of a hyper-v version tbh!

https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/ArchiveTeam_Warrior

count swagula @clip5/9/2023, 5:12 PM

I ended up downloading the .ova, extracting the .vmdk from it (by renaming it to .7z and extracting it lol), and then converting it to .vhdx using qemu-image! runs perfectly under hyper-v, albeit as a gen 1 vm only.

there's also oracle cloud's free dealie https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free 2 amd vms with 1G ram and 4 Arm Ampere A1 cores/vms with 24G ram between them, and 200G storage overall

cat @catball5/9/2023, 10:09 PM

The container only seemed to support amd64 when I tried on my oracle freebie. :( Is there an easy way to modify the base image to run on arm64? I'm honestly that that experienced with docker!

walking mirage @atomicthumbs5/9/2023, 10:31 PM

it's probably just sending out binaries so i'm guessing not; i think they mention it on the wiki

cat @catball5/9/2023, 10:37 PM

ah, that makes sense it wouldn't then, ty for checking into that!
