## Dependencies
You don't need to install all the dependencies, ArchiveBox will automatically enable the relevant modules based on whatever you have available, but it's recommended to use the official [Docker image](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Docker) with everything preinstalled.

If you so choose, you can also install ArchiveBox and its dependencies directly on any Linux or macOS systems using the [system package manager](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Install) and the `archivebox setup` command.
You can also install ArchiveBox and its dependencies using your [system package manager](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Install) or `pip` directly on any Linux or macOS system, or on Windows (advanced users only).

# run the setup to auto install all the extractors and extras

archivebox --version # see info and versions of installed dependencies

ArchiveBox is written in Python 3 so it requires `python3` and `pip3` available on your system. It also uses a set of optional, but highly recommended external dependencies for archiving sites: `wget` (for plain HTML, static files, and WARC saving), `chromium` (for screenshots, PDFs, JS execution, and more), `youtube-dl` (for audio and video), `git` (for cloning git repos), and `nodejs` (for readability, mercury, and singlefile), and more.

The on-disk layout is optimized to be easy to browse by hand and durable long-term. The main index is a standard sqlite3 database (it can also be exported as static JSON/HTML), and the archive snapshots are organized by date-added timestamp in the `archive/` subfolder. Each snapshot subfolder includes a static JSON and HTML index describing its contents, and the snapshot extrator outputs are plain files within the folder (e.g. `media/example.mp4`, `git/somerepo.git`, `static/someimage.png`, etc.)
```bash
# to browse your index statically without running the archivebox server, run:
archivebox list --html --with-headers > index.html
archivebox list --html --with-headers > index.html # open index.html to view
archivebox list --json --with-headers > index.json
# if running these commands with docker-compose, add -T:
# docker-compose run -T archivebox list ...
# then open the static index in a browser
open index.html
# or browse the snapshots via filesystem directly
ls ./archive/<timestamp>/

#### Security Risks of Viewing Archived JS
Be aware that malicious archived JS can also read the contents of other pages in your archive due to snapshot CSRF and XSS protections being imperfect. See the [Security Overview](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Security-Overview#stealth-mode) page for more details.
Be aware that malicious archived JS can access the contents of other pages in your archive when viewed. Because the Web UI serves all viewed snapshots from a single domain, they share a request context and typical CSRF/CORS/XSS/CSP protections do not work to prevent cross-site request attacks. See the [Security Overview](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Security-Overview#stealth-mode) page for more details.
```bash
# visiting an archived page with malicious JS:

# example.com/index.js can now make a request to read everything:

#### Saving Multiple Snapshots of a Single URL
Support for saving multiple snapshots of each site over time will be [added soon](https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/179) (along with the ability to view diffs of the changes between runs). For now ArchiveBox is designed to only archive each URL with each extractor type once. A workaround to take multiple snapshots of the same URL is to make them slightly different by adding a hash:

ArchiveBox can use anywhere from ~1gb per 1000 articles, to ~50gb per 1000 articles, mostly dependent on whether you're saving audio & video using `SAVE_MEDIA=True` and whether you lower `MEDIA_MAX_SIZE=750mb`.
Storage requirements can be reduced by using a compressed/deduplicated filesystem like ZFS/BTRFS, or by turning off extractors methods you don't need.
Storage requirements can be reduced by using a compressed/deduplicated filesystem like ZFS/BTRFS, or by turning off extractors methods you don't need. Don't store large collections on older filesystems like EXT3/FAT as they may not be able to handle more than 50k directory entries in the `archive/` folder.
Try to keep the `index.sqlite3` file on local drive (not a network mount), and ideally on an SSD for maximum performance, however the `archive/` folder can be on a network mount or spinning HDD.
