Archivebox - Cloudbox/Community GitHub Wiki

Initial setup, thanks to erisheaded on Discord:

  1. Run tag:
    cd ~/community && sudo ansible-playbook community.yml --tags archivebox
    
  2. Connect to container:
    docker exec -it archivebox /bin/bash
    
    • NOTE: (This drops you in the /data folder. DO NOT switch to /data/archive directory)
  3. Switch to archivebox user for config:
    su archivebox
    
  4. Initialize with setup to create a web admin:
    archivebox init —setup
    
  5. Enter username, email, and password
  6. Load URL and test login

By default, your new installation has a publicly accessible web index, snapshots, and archive addition access. You may not want this for a host of security reasons, so it's recommended to review the ArchiveBox Security Overview and tailoring these settings to your preference when setting up.
