HTTPArchive.org Web Server on App Engine

New and improved version of HTTP Archive. This replaces the legacy version, the source code for which is still available at HTTPArchive/legacy.httparchive.org.

Run Locally

Source

1. If you don't have virtualenv, install it using pip.

sudo pip install virtualenv

2. Create an isolated Python environment, and install dependencies:

virtualenv --python python3.8 .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Install the NPM dependencies:

npm install

4. Initialize the Google Cloud CLI (this is necessary because the App Engine server uses Google Cloud APIs):

gcloud init

5. Run the application:

npm run start

Note: Windows users may need to run npm run watch and python main.py separately.

6. In your web browser, enter the following address: http://127.0.0.1:8080
