Bug 219945 – p.g.o archives

• Product: Websites
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Steve Dibb (RETIRED) 2008-05-01 15:54:19 UTC]

Create a script, cron-job, HTML front page for archiving of Planet / Universe pages.

Just simply suck down / parse the HTML on a daily output, and dump it to an archive, have a cron job delete older ones.

How long to keep backlog is debatable (weeks, months?), and how often to archive (daily or weekly).

and I just remembered we don't need to parse it, because it's already static HTML to begin with.  So, just copy it to $(date +%F).html nightly.

Modified the cron job to copy to archives/ now just need to generate an index page.

I think I might add a google search box
