dillo-history

Persistent history saving for Dillo.

This project contains:

• A patch for dillo to make it save each resource from its cache to disk, and record entries in a history file.
• A plugin for dillo to view the history file and its entries.

The history file is ~/.dillo/history.txt and its format is TSV. Each entry contains a timestamp, SHA256 content hash, and URL.

The plugin serves requests of the form history:[<limit>][/<pattern>] where <limit> is the number of entries to show (default is 35) and <pattern> is a regex to grep for the history files (for URL, hash, and/or timestamp) (default is to show all entries).

Screenshot

The content hashes are in SSB blob format: &XXX.sha256) where XXX is the content hash in base64. Their contents are saved as files in SSB's blob store at ~/.ssb/blobs/sha256/XX/XXXX... where XXXXX... is the content hash in hexadecimal, lowercase.

Install

Install the plugin with make install && dpidc stop. Install the patch by downloading Dillo's source code, applying the patch and compiling dillo.
