Creating a static copy of a dynamic website

The command line, in short…

wget -k -K -E -r -l 10 -p -N -F --restrict-file-names=windows -nH http://website.com/

…and the options explained

  • -k : convert links to relative
  • -K : keep an original versions of files without the conversions made by wget
  • -E : rename html files to .html (if they don’t already have an htm(l) extension)
  • -r : recursive… of course we want to make a recursive copy
  • -l 10 : the maximum level of recursion. if you have a really big website you may need to put a higher number, but 10 levels should be enough.

Wrap boto3 dynamodb in an exponential backoff to avoid ProisionedThroughputExceededException
#!/usr/bin/env python
# An exponential backoff around Boto3 DynamoDB, whose own backoff eventually
# fails on long multipage scans. We'd like to use this as a wrapper somehow,
