## The legacy of my blog, recover with Archivarix
For me this year was like a rollercoaster, and I forget my blog was
hosted on a very old Online.net Dedibox server, now called Scaleway.
This server was in a process to be decomission and I missed the 3 emails
annoncing the end of my services. Then Online.net decided that it was a
good idea to also delete the backups spaces attached to these machines.
To sumup I loose my blog and the recent backups. But I wanted to keep it
and a least serve the existing content that was linked on search
engines and other websites. I looked on the wayback machine and my blog
was in it. I found a cool all-in-one service to restore an entire
website from the Wayback machine called Archivarix, the cost was arround
10€.
I recovered a 300MB zip archive with a lot of content, some
images are missing but all the articles was there.
## Running the Archivarix Loader
Archivarix loader is a single php file using a sqlite database with all
your urls inside and the content is stored as files in `www/.content.EZtzwPjb/binary/`.
Each time a HTTP request is process, the script look in the database for
a matching url and serve the content linked to it. This mini cms is
license under GPL, and I put a copy [here](https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/src/branch/master/www/index.php).
### With docker
You need PHP and SQLite extension, the PHP docker image already
contains that. I have done a small docker-compose for running
archivarix.
Simple as run `docker compose up`.
* [docker-compose.yml](https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/src/branch/master/docker-compose.yml)
<pre data-src="https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/raw/branch/master/docker-compose.yml" data-range="1," class="line-numbers"></pre>
* [nginx.conf](https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/src/branch/master/nginx.conf)
<pre data-src="https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/raw/branch/master/nginx.conf" data-range="1," class="line-numbers language-nginx"></pre>

### With Yunohost
I'm mainly self-hosted with the Yunohost project, those next steps show
you how to easily add a small php inside your Yunohost instance.
1. Install the application `My Webapp` inside the yunohost admin panel
{{< figureCupper

caption="TODO"
command="Fit"
options="1024x500" >}}
1. Fill the setup form
{{< figureCupper

caption="TODO"
command="Fill"
options="1024x500" >}}
1. You have an empty app inside `/var/www/my_webapp/www/`
{{< figureCupper
img="Screenshot from 2022-11-21 18-42-30.png"
caption="TODO"
command="Fit"
options="1024x500" >}}
1. You need to copy your files, I use rsync with the yunohost admin account
`rsync -rlgoD --checksum --verbose www/ admin@home.hugopoi.net:/var/www/my_webapp/www/`
1. Then you might need to `chmod 664 /var/www/my_webapp/www/.content.*/structure.*`, Archivarix required some write access on the sqlite files.
## Modding Archivarix Loader
### Fixing Wordpress version missing files
The homepage was looking good but some wordpress css and javascript assets were missing. Wordpress use a query params `?ver=`.
{{< figureCupper

caption="Missing files because of the Wordpress `?ver=` query params with Archivarix"
command="Fit"

So I code a little function to load any version available for a
given url. And I take the most recent one.

### Cleaning existing pages
After successfully running my backuped blog, I wanted to mod some
content.
* Replace the twitter widget
* Replace the hoster widget
* Add a legacy warning for visitor to redirect to the new blog
Archivarix has a `ARCHIVARIX_INCLUDE_CUSTOM` relying
on regular expression to replace content but I needed a more precise approach. I used the PHP XML extension which has a DOM parser buit in and can
parse HTML pages.
* [The easy config to add/replace/delete some html parts](https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/src/commit/cd94d82c1a3dad22b026c9c26311b366f76dcd54/www/index.php#L97-L133)

## The new blog with Hugo
I wanted simple markdown that generate static HTML, this why I choose Hugo for my blog.
1. First I add a new directory called `v2` next to the legacy blog.
1. Then you launch `hugo new site v2` this will generate the folder tree needed.
1. I choose the Cupper theme
{{< figureCupper
img="Screenshot 2022-12-03 at 15-30-20 Cupper.png"
caption="Cupper Theme for Hugo"
command="Fit"
options="1024x500" >}}
1. I add the Cupper theme with `git submodule add https://github.com/zwbetz-gh/cupper-hugo-theme.git themes/cupper-hugo-theme`
1. Add some [custom css](https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/src/commit/80eed4ba721287f4854f26e62a094b26997b4b69/v2/static/css/cupper-hugo-tweaks.css)
<pre data-src="https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/raw/commit/80eed4ba721287f4854f26e62a094b26997b4b69/v2/static/css/cupper-hugo-tweaks.css" class="line-numbers"></pre>
1. Add some config in [`config.toml`](https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/src/branch/master/v2/config.toml)
<pre data-src="https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/raw/commit/80eed4ba721287f4854f26e62a094b26997b4b69/v2/config.toml" class="line-numbers"></pre>
1. I also upgrade prism.js for code highlight in theme itself
1. I add favicon and logo
1. Then I need to build with `hugo`
1. Deploy with rsync in yunohost
<pre data-src="https://home.hugopoi.net/gitea/hugopoi/blog.hugopoi.net/raw/branch/master/deploy.sh" class="line-numbers"></pre>
1. I add a CORS header in nginx config
of my Gitea to allow fetching code inside `<pre>` html tags
```nginx
rewrite ^/gitea$ /gitea/ permanent;
location /gitea/ {
proxy_pass http://localhost:6000/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_buffering off;
client_max_body_size 200M;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
# Include SSOWAT user panel.
include conf.d/yunohost_panel.conf.inc;
add_header 'Vary' 'Origin';
# Add CORS header for loading code in pre html tags
if ($http_origin ~* "^(http://localhost:1313|https://blog.hugopoi.net)$") {
add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin "$http_origin";
}
}
```
Moooore to come !
