How to add new session to existing collection #18

Closed clausjuhl closed 3 years ago

clausjuhl commented 3 years ago

Hi. I've previously been using the Webrecorder and Webrecorder Player to record and replay webcollections on my Mac (Big Sur), but WebRecorder stopped working on my Mac, and I discovered that you had been busy :) I have a couple of collections that I add sessions to from time to time, but how is it possible to add sessions to existing collections (local WARC-files) with ArchiveWeb.page.app (desktop-version)? Am I missing something? Thanks! /Claus

No, you're not missing anything. This is a feature that is currently in progress, importing existing collections.. Will definitely update when this is available!

Hi Ilya. Ok. Thank you. And until then, should I just start a new collection, and then merge the warc-files later?

Just chiming in that #51 implements this feature and works great for me. Thanks so much for implementing this @ikreymer!

ikreymer commented 3 years ago

Thanks for testing, this is indeed now implemented! There is an import button that allows you to add to either a new or existing collection. The import fully reads a WARC or WACZ file into the extension/app data store. Will be updating the guide too soon! Let us know if you run into any issues.

The import archive file to existing collection feature is not working for me. I just get weird characters loaded instead of the actual website content. Happens in Chrome extension and downloaded app on macOS.

However, if I import the archive file and create a new collection, then the website content loads fine. I couldn't find this issue reported anywhere yet.

This is an imported archive file (.warc) from Conifer. Same thing happens with multiple different archive files for different websites.

App v0.7.4
