As the internet ages, link rot takes over larger and larger swathes of it, bringing with it the disappearance of interesting reads, courses and resources and much more that many of us treasure. Anchorage is an attempt to let you save your little corner for good :)

Anchorage is a Python library and CLI to bulk archive your bookmark collection easily and without friction. It allows you to retrieve your bookmark collection from your browser of choice, filter out duplicates, local files and entries matching string, substring and regex searches, and archive the whole thing: online in the Internet Archive or locally, using ArchiveBox.

First it will deal with the requirements and install of the library, and then with its configuration, the Anchorage CLI and its Python API. A thorough documentation of each API method is available in the docs site.

A working Docker install is the only requirement, beyond Python and Anchorage's dependencies. Without Docker: Docker is used to run ArchiveBox, via a provided docker-compose file. Without Docker Anchorage will not be able to archive your collection locally, but it will still be able to save it online in the Internet Archive.
