mad-web-cache

Basic/experimental caching/archiving proxy server, as single deno script.

If you want to use this to convert a blog to static form:

use --skipglobalremap

By default, it tries to re-write all urls to go through the proxy, so for instance embedded youtube video urls will be rewritten as a relative URL (something like ../../../youtube.com/) which will no longer work...

How it works:

• Tries to store all requests as local files as you browse the web. For offline access or analysis.
• Access the web through localhost:8000/mad-web-cache/ instead of https://
• Tries to remap links using basic search n replace (in all text content)
• Querystrings for urls ending with .php, .asp, /css, /css2 etc, are hashed and the hash is included in local cache filenames to enable multiple cached results

Additional info

• Currently don't handle characters that are allowed in urls but not on the local file system
• Only works well on simple sites
• Only tested on Windows 10
• GPL-3.0 license
