This tool provides a demo of in-browser archiving + replay via a CORS proxy.

It uses the new ArchiveWeb.page embed to provide the archiving, and <replay-web-page> to provide the replay. Archived data can be expored as a WACZ file, or cleared when the page is closed.

It requires the ArchiveWeb.page 0.13.0+ and a CORS proxy.

Since it uses a CORS proxy, the capabilities are more limited than through a direct-browser based archiving via ArchiveWeb.page. Nevetheless, this tool serves as a demo of the archiving capabilities of Webrecorder tools.

Using this service requires a CORS proxy.

We recommend running your own version of a CORS proxy, or our version of: https://github.com/webrecorder/wabac-cors-proxy which is designed to be run as a Cloudflare Worker. See that repo for configuring allowed origins.

This repo works with the latest release of ArchiveWeb.page NPM package, @webrecorder/archivewebpage.

For development, it may be useful to test with a local version of AWP, which does all the archiving / replay.

1. Ensure that you have a locally checked out version of webrecorder/archiveweb.page built. Run yarn run build in that repo.

2. Run yarn link "@webrecorder/archivewebpage" in this repo

3. Run yarn run update-awp to copy the built dist files from AWP for testing.

4. Run yarn start.
