Consider refactoring into two libraries about archiveweb.page HOT 3 OPEN

Hi
We are building extension which only handles the capture, so in the long term I would think of splitting it up to:

• capturing the site Apis
• archive browser
  One more thing regarding replay ,
  In my case replaying of social media modern site is my first concern ,
  So having flash support for example makes the package heavier than we need.
  I am reviewing the code and I would say I am really impressed, well done!!

from archiveweb.page.

Part of this has already been done: the service worker part of the extension, which extends wabac.js, has been moved to awp-sw library.

It is possible to split things further, such as all of the UI from the recording logic..

Hi, do you mean you are building your own extension on top of archiveweb.page, or your are using archiveweb.page?

• capturing the site Apis
• archive browser

Do you mean just splitting the UI and recording API as suggested above?

Thanks, yes, currently looking at how to make Flash optional potentially, though its not possible to load code dynamically is discouraged in extensions, so for now, we are shipping the Ruffle player.

Hi, do you mean you are building your own extension on top of archiveweb.page, or your are using archiveweb.page?
We are building the extension using archiveweb.page base code , we removed the archive-page-app and its dependencies from the extension making it smaller
Do you mean just splitting the UI and recording API as suggested above?
Yes

One more thing since we are planned to work on the extension , we think we could benefit the project as well by:

• Migrating to manifest v3
• Adding upload to AWS S3 Bucket (Need to think how it can be added mainly how its configured)
• We will test many sites with the extension - we will post issues if we encounter problems
  If you have more ideas , I'll be happy to hear I can be reached via mail tsemachh at shefing.com or in slack as well

BTW: Are there any public architecture documents regarding the extension internals ?
I have fresh graduate I would like her to dive to the code there.
