##  AUR/archivebox includes a systemd service startup template.
##
##  To run archivebox automatically during startup, do the following:
##
##  Assuming your ArchiveBox OUTPUT_DIR is /var/archivebox
##
##  1. Create the archivebox system user if you haven't done yet:
##
##       echo 'u archivebox 911 "ArchiveBox User"' > /usr/lib/sysusers.d/archivebox.conf
##       sudo systemd-sysusers
##
##  2. Initialize the ArchiveBox OUTPUT_DIR. It is recommended to do this 
##     as the archivebox user to ensure correct permissions from the start:
##
##       cd /var/archivebox
##       sudo -u archivebox archivebox init
##
##  3. Ensure ownership and permissions are correct for the archivebox user:
##
##       sudo chown -R archivebox:archivebox /var/archivebox
##       sudo chmod -R 755 /var/archivebox
##
##  4. Set the WorkingDirectory for the systemd service. 
##     Run the following command to create a configuration override:
##
##       sudo systemctl edit archivebox
##
##     In the editor, add the following lines and save:
##
##       [Service]
##       WorkingDirectory=/var/archivebox
##
##  5. Enable and start the archivebox service:
##
##       sudo systemctl enable --now archivebox
##

@jasongodev If you want to skip the hassle with 0.8.x rc releases, then declares support for python3.14 https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/blob/dev/pyproject.toml#L26

Edit: nvm, these are onlt officially declare support for 3.12. Only dev branch declares higher version support.

Good day everyone, as you may have noticed I am the new maintainer of this package. After careful inspection of the whole installation routine I was able to identify that the errors during installation are caused by the incompatible Python version. The upstream source is only compatible up to Python 3.11.

I will do a refactor of the PKGBUILD to make it use Python 3.11 via pyenv and to fully isolate the build dependencies under venv as oppose to the current system-wide dependency approach. This way it will make ArchiveBox's dependencies isolated from the rolling release nature of Arch Linux.

I will update this package in a matter of 2-3 days once all testing are done.

I can't start archivebox.

bash: /usr/bin/archivebox: cannot execute: required file not found

Can't start installing since one of the git repos tries to check out a non existing branch;

-> Creating working copy of django-taggit git repo...
fatal: bad object refs/remotes/origin/pre-commit-ci-update-config

Can't install due to failing tests.

Anybody else getting a similar error, I just do not know what to make of it! Is a problem with: /home/USER/.cache/yay/archivebox/src/ArchiveBox/tests/test_extractors.py not being able to create the file "singlefile.html"?

Two issues here one of which are with the PKGBUILD

python-pdm-backend and python-django are missing from deps

Tests starts up a server on 8080 which was already in use by qBittorrent on my system...

Even after all that, tests are still failing in mass on something else.

After installing the suggested pdm-backend, the build seems to complete. But the tests fail. 2 of them anyway. * ArchiveBox/tests/test_extractors.py * ArchiveBox/tests/test_init.py

with: E ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django'
