GetAWebAddOn

Background

Sometime I find useful to make a copy of a whole Web from remote (for backup or offline reading).

Here I enclose a small package for tar-ing a whole Web.

get-a-web can be used as a link

Supported File Formats

The script produces files in the formats:

  • .tar

Usage

Web Format Versions URI
Webname tar all %SCRIPTURL%/get-a-web%SCRIPTSUFFIX%/Webname/Webname.tar

Security

  • All the data/pub/template files of the chosen web are archived, except for the .htaccess and .htpasswd and the *.lock files.
  • User authentication can be handled with apache <Location> directive.
  • Any user that can access this script is able to get a full copy of the entire web - TWiki security is NOT respected. use with caution

Demo

Installation

  • usual Add-On installation (unzip in twiki root directory)
