Hi.
I really like the WebClipping feature of Evernote and the archiving feature of pinboard. Today I really wanted an old article I had bookmarked in 2012. Web site is no longer there. However I had used web clipper to store the article in evernote.
So I'm asking for suggestions where I could automate web clipping of bookmarks to my own storage.
Essentially if I could get a simple button which would save web page (complete) and build an index to all the saved web pages that would be ideal. Does anyone know of a program/source code/ extensions/ etc that would do this for me.
Evernote won't web clip entire pages via programs such as ifttt. Pinboards backup is not publicly available except on request.
Essentially I'm looking for a self hosted pinboard archiving suite or evernote web clipping thing.
I'm thought about writing a python script to parse all pinboard links and then somehow build an index or directory structure using wget or httrack or similar, but this would require quite a bit of work and knowledge I don't posses (databases?). Its has to have already been done.
Any ideas?
Pinboard does note that it uses wget as a base with some modifications (switches?). I've used wget a bit and it works fantastic for grabbing a single page (or recursion.)
They also have a python interface. So from my point of view it would appear easiest to write a python script to simply call wget and then somehow patch together an HTML page index of all the links. Hmmmm. I'd just need to brush up on my html. I'm thinking this is the best way to do that.
