**3. (Optional) Schedule it to run every day**
You can import links from any local file path or feed url by changing the second argument to `archive.py`.
Bookmark Archiver will ignore links that are imported multiple times, it will keep the earliest version that it's seen.
This means you can add multiple cron jobs to pull links from several different feeds or files each day,
it will keep the index up-to-date without duplicate links.
This example archives a pocket RSS feed and an export file every 24 hours, and saves the output to a logfile.
```bash
0 24 * * * /opt/bookmark-archiver/archive.py https://getpocket.com/users/yourusername/feed/all > /var/log/bookmark_archiver_rss.log
0 24 * * * /opt/bookmark-archiver/archive.py /home/darth-vader/Desktop/bookmarks.html > /var/log/bookmark_archiver_firefox.log
```
(Add the above lines to `/etc/crontab`)
**3. Done!**
You can open `service/index.html` to view your archive. (favicons will appear next to each title once it has finished downloading)
