remwharead saves URIs of things you want to remember in a database along with an URI to the archived version, the current date and time, title, description, the full text of the page and optional tags.

The database can be filtered by time, tags and full text and exported to CSV, AsciiDoc, JSON or RSS.

Archiving is done using the Wayback machine from the Internet Archive.

Example 1. AsciiDoc export formatted with Asciidoctor.

How to contribute

Read the Code of Conduct.

Reporting bugs or suggesting enhancements

Before reporting a bug, please perform a search to see if the problem has already been reported. If it has, add a comment to the existing issue instead of opening a new one. Same for enhancements.

You can also contact me via E-Mail, XMPP or the Fediverse if you don’t want to open an account.

Pull requests

Please use similar coding conventions as the rest of the project. The basic rule to remember is to write code in the same style as the existing/surrounding code.

You can also send me your patches via E-Mail, ideally using git format-patch or git send-email.
