Proposing a new feature
What is the problem that your feature request solves?
Looking atavailable sources, archiving browser history requires runningexport_browser_history.sh.
However I see a few issues:
- It looks like this was written for macOS only. Linux users have to figure out how to use the script manually.
- There's a sqlite syntax error for the Firefox export.
- The script fails silently. Depending on the error it will just generate an empty file, do nothing, etc. and may generate no helpful output.
What is your proposed solution?
I'm a bit of a Bash nerd and would love to make this work with Linux and Firefox at least. I've already startedhere. Is this kind of contribution something you would take?
Side notes:
- This branch seeks to fix all the issues I've found so far. I have split the commits up in a logical way as well, so they're easy to review one-by-one.
- I donot have a mac to test with, so you will definitely want to test these changes on a mac before merging.
- I am onlyconsidering installing Chromium to get that working on Linux. Not sure if I will yet.
What hacks or alternative solutions have you tried to solve the problem?
Pass the full file name to the script after the--firefox argument. But that still fails with a sqlite syntax error.

How badly do you want this new feature?
- It's an urgent deal-breaker, I can't live without it
- It's important to add it in the near-mid term future
- It would be nice to have eventually
- I'm willing tostart a PR to develop this myself
- I havedonated money to go towards fixing this issue
Mini Survey
- I like ArchiveBox so far / would recommend it to a friend
- I've had a lot of difficulty getting ArchiveBox set up
- I would pay $10/mo for a hosted version of ArchiveBox if it had this feature
