This repository automates the process of mirroring, cleaning, and publishing the static site for sipe25.com to ai-sf.it/sipe25 using GitHub Actions.

While it works in this case, it should in principle work for any Wordpress website, avoiding the limitations of the cheaper plans of wordpress.com.

• .env: Environment variables for domain and URLs.
• requirements.txt: Python dependencies (beautifulsoup4, requests).
• scripts/
  • download_mirror.sh: Bash script to download a static mirror using HTTrack.
  • index_cleanup.py: Removes redundant index*.html files except index.html.
  • fix_links.py: Cleans up HTML links and image attributes in the mirrored site.
• .github/workflows/update-mirror.yml: GitHub Actions workflow for automating the mirror, cleanup, link fixing, image resizing, and publishing to GitHub Pages.

1. Download the mirror:

   bash scripts/download_mirror.sh <domain> [output_dir] [depth]

2. Clean up index files:

   python scripts/index_cleanup.py <mirror_dir>

3. Fix links:

   python scripts/fix_links.py <mirror_dir> <base_url> <new_base_url>

• The workflow is triggered manually.
• It downloads the mirror, cleans and fixes links, resizes images, and publishes to the gh-pages branch.

Set in .env:

DOMAIN=sipe25.com
BASE_URL=https://sipe25.com
NEW_BASE_URL=https://ai-sf.it/sipe25

• Python 3.x
• HTTrack
