Updating

To simplify updating the site, running python generate.py will regenerate all of the pages using the data and templates.

The site is generated from a combination of a JSON data file and templates.

Data File and Templates

The repository contains the following data files:

• The projects json: data/projects.json

• Templates (for this README, index page and project pages): templates/

Update web archive paths

The data JSON specifies the location of the hosted web archive (WACZ) files.

The files are too big to be in git but can be placed on any cloud or local storage.

To update the location of the WACZ files, simply update the sourceUrl paths in the data/projects.json

Update the site pages

To update the site UI, simply change the templates/proj-template.html for the project pages and templates/index-template.html

Updating the version of ReplayWeb.page

The site is configured to use the latest release of ReplayWeb.page

To build with a different version specify the version from which to load replayweb.page, ex: python generate.py -p https://replayweb.page/

Updating the Domain

To change the links to be on a different domain than https://archive.supdigital.org, simply run with python generate.py -d https://archive.supdigital.org or change the default domain in generate.py
