League-Boards-Archival

Tool to grab the NA League of Legends discussion boards before they’re lost forever

This is different from the other heroic archival tool https://github.com/Nemin32/Charon

This will only archive NA boards, but the intent is to fully mirror the look and feel of the site, and to gather everything.
Instead of recursively parsing links, this indexes /new/ and finds all users and assets to serve those pages.

After backing up, links are rewritten in the pages so that they properly reference each other, and can be serves as a mirror.

Which boards will be saved?

This program is meant only to archive the English NA boards, though it’s fairly simple to modify the urls to target another board.

Has it been saved already?

A version of the program is currently running, and is 20% complete.

Where can I access the archive once it’s complete?

The plan is to host a mirror with limited functionality on a separate GitHub repo once the archiver is complete, and QOL changes are made.
