-Auto Archiver is a Python tool to automatically archive content on the web in a secure and verifiable way. It takes URLs from different sources (e.g. a CSV file, Google Sheets, command line etc.) and archives the content of each one. It can archive social media posts, videos, images and webpages. Content can be enriched, then saved either locally or remotely (S3 bucket, Google Drive). The status of the archiving process can be appended to a CSV report, or if using Google Sheets – back to the original sheet.

 Read the [article about Auto Archiver on bellingcat.com](https://www.bellingcat.com/resources/2022/09/22/preserve-vital-online-content-with-bellingcats-auto-archiver-tool/).
 
 
-## Installation
+Python tool to automatically archive social media posts, videos, and images from a Google Sheets, the console, and more. Uses different archivers depending on the platform, and can save content to local storage, S3 bucket (Digital Ocean Spaces, AWS, ...), and Google Drive. If using Google Sheets as the source for links, it will be updated with information about the archived content. It can be run manually or on an automated basis.
 
-View the [Installation Guide](https://auto-archiver.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/installation.html) for full instructions
+There are 3 ways to use the auto-archiver:
+1. (easiest installation) via docker
+2. (local python install) `pip install auto-archiver`
+3. (legacy/development) clone and manually install from repo (see legacy [tutorial video](https://youtu.be/VfAhcuV2tLQ))
 
-**Advanced:**
+But **you always need a configuration/orchestration file**, which is where you'll configure where/what/how to archive. Make sure you read [orchestration](#orchestration).
 
-To get started quickly using Docker:
 
-`docker pull bellingcat/auto-archiver && docker run -it --rm -v secrets:/app/secrets bellingcat/auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml`
+## How to install and run the auto-archiver
 
-Or pip:
+### Option 1 - docker
 
-`pip install auto-archiver && auto-archiver --help`
+[![dockeri.co](https://dockerico.blankenship.io/image/bellingcat/auto-archiver)](https://hub.docker.com/r/bellingcat/auto-archiver)
 
-## Contributing
+Docker works like a virtual machine running inside your computer, it isolates everything and makes installation simple. Since it is an isolated environment when you need to pass it your orchestration file or get downloaded media out of docker you will need to connect folders on your machine with folders inside docker with the `-v` volume flag.
 
-We welcome contributions to the Auto Archiver project! See the [Contributing Guide](https://auto-archiver.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contributing.html) for how to get involved!
 
+1. install [docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)
+2. pull the auto-archiver docker [image](https://hub.docker.com/r/bellingcat/auto-archiver) with `docker pull bellingcat/auto-archiver`
+3. run the docker image locally in a container: `docker run --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml` breaking this command down:
+   1. `docker run` tells docker to start a new container (an instance of the image)
+   2. `--rm` makes sure this container is removed after execution (less garbage locally)
+   3. `-v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets` - your secrets folder
+      1. `-v` is a volume flag which means a folder that you have on your computer will be connected to a folder inside the docker container
+      2. `$PWD/secrets` points to a `secrets/` folder in your current working directory (where your console points to), we use this folder as a best practice to hold all the secrets/tokens/passwords/... you use
+      3. `/app/secrets` points to the path the docker container where this image can be found
+   4.  `-v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive` - (optional) if you use local_storage
+       1.  `-v` same as above, this is a volume instruction
+       2.  `$PWD/local_archive` is a folder `local_archive/` in case you want to archive locally and have the files accessible outside docker
+       3.  `/app/local_archive` is a folder inside docker that you can reference in your orchestration.yml file 
+
+### Option 2 - python package
+
+<details><summary><code>Python package instructions</code></summary>
+
+1. make sure you have python 3.8 or higher installed
+2. install the package `pip/pipenv/conda install auto-archiver`
+3. test it's installed with `auto-archiver --help`
+4. run it with your orchestration file and pass any flags you want in the command line `auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml` if your orchestration file is inside a `secrets/`, which we advise
+   
+You will also need [ffmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/), [firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) and [geckodriver](https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases), and optionally [fonts-noto](https://fonts.google.com/noto). Similar to the local installation. 
+
+</details>
+
+
+### Option 3 - local installation
+This can also be used for development.
+
+<details><summary><code>Legacy instructions, only use if docker/package is not an option</code></summary>
+
+
+Install the following locally:
+1. [ffmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/) must also be installed locally for this tool to work. 
+2. [firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) and [geckodriver](https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases) on a path folder like `/usr/local/bin`. 
+3. (optional) [fonts-noto](https://fonts.google.com/noto) to deal with multiple unicode characters during selenium/geckodriver's screenshots: `sudo apt install fonts-noto -y`. 
+
+Clone and run:
+1. `git clone https://github.com/bellingcat/auto-archiver`
+2. `pipenv install`
+3. `pipenv run python -m src.auto_archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml`
+
+
+</details><br/>
+
+# Orchestration
+The archiver work is orchestrated by the following workflow (we call each a **step**): 
+1. **Feeder** gets the links (from a spreadsheet, from the console, ...)
+2. **Archiver** tries to archive the link (twitter, youtube, ...)
+3. **Enricher** adds more info to the content (hashes, thumbnails, ...)
+4. **Formatter** creates a report from all the archived content (HTML, PDF, ...)
+5. **Database** knows what's been archived and also stores the archive result (spreadsheet, CSV, or just the console)
+
+To setup an auto-archiver instance create an `orchestration.yaml` which contains the workflow you would like. We advise you put this file into a `secrets/` folder and do not share it with others because it will contain passwords and other secrets. 
+
+The structure of orchestration file is split into 2 parts: `steps` (what **steps** to use) and `configurations` (how those steps should behave), here's a simplification:
+```yaml
+# orchestration.yaml content
+steps:
+  feeder: gsheet_feeder
+  archivers: # order matters
+    - youtubedl_archiver
+  enrichers:
+    - thumbnail_enricher
+  formatter: html_formatter
+  storages:
+    - local_storage
+  databases:
+    - gsheet_db
+
+configurations:
+  gsheet_feeder:
+    sheet: "your google sheet name"
+    header: 2 # row with header for your sheet
+  # ... configurations for the other steps here ...
+```
+
+To see all available `steps` (which archivers, storages, databses, ...) exist check the [example.orchestration.yaml](example.orchestration.yaml).
+
+All the `configurations` in the `orchestration.yaml` file (you can name it differently but need to pass it in the `--config FILENAME` argument) can be seen in the console by using the `--help` flag. They can also be overwritten, for example if you are using the `cli_feeder` to archive from the command line and want to provide the URLs you should do:
+
+```bash
+auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml --cli_feeder.urls="url1,url2,url3"
+```
+
+Here's the complete workflow that the auto-archiver goes through:
+```mermaid
+graph TD
+    s((start)) --> F(fa:fa-table Feeder)
+    F -->|get and clean URL| D1{fa:fa-database Database}
+    D1 -->|is already archived| e((end))
+    D1 -->|not yet archived| a(fa:fa-download Archivers)
+    a -->|got media| E(fa:fa-chart-line Enrichers)
+    E --> S[fa:fa-box-archive Storages]
+    E --> Fo(fa:fa-code Formatter)
+    Fo --> S
+    Fo -->|update database| D2(fa:fa-database Database)
+    D2 --> e
+```
+
+## Orchestration checklist
+Use this to make sure you help making sure you did all the required steps:
+* [ ] you have a `/secrets` folder with all your configuration files including
+  * [ ] a orchestration file eg: `orchestration.yaml` pointing to the correct location of other files
+  * [ ] (optional if you use GoogleSheets) you have a `service_account.json` (see [how-to](https://gspread.readthedocs.io/en/latest/oauth2.html#for-bots-using-service-account))
+  * [ ] (optional for telegram) a `anon.session` which appears after the 1st run where you login to telegram
+    * if you use private channels you need to add `channel_invites` and set `join_channels=true` at least once
+  * [ ] (optional for VK) a `vk_config.v2.json`
+  * [ ] (optional for using GoogleDrive storage) `gd-token.json` (see [help script](scripts/create_update_gdrive_oauth_token.py))
+  * [ ] (optional for instagram) `instaloader.session` file which appears after the 1st run and login in instagram
+  * [ ] (optional for browsertrix) `profile.tar.gz` file
+
+#### Example invocations
+The recommended way to run the auto-archiver is through Docker. The invocations below will run the auto-archiver Docker image using a configuration file that you have specified
+
+```bash
+# all the configurations come from ./secrets/orchestration.yaml
+docker run --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml
+# uses the same configurations but for another google docs sheet 
+# with a header on row 2 and with some different column names
+# notice that columns is a dictionary so you need to pass it as JSON and it will override only the values provided
+docker run --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml --gsheet_feeder.sheet="use it on another sheets doc" --gsheet_feeder.header=2 --gsheet_feeder.columns='{"url": "link"}'
+# all the configurations come from orchestration.yaml and specifies that s3 files should be private
+docker run --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml --s3_storage.private=1
+```
+
+The auto-archiver can also be run locally, if pre-requisites are correctly configured. Equivalent invocations are below.
+
+```bash
+# all the configurations come from ./secrets/orchestration.yaml
+auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml
+# uses the same configurations but for another google docs sheet 
+# with a header on row 2 and with some different column names
+# notice that columns is a dictionary so you need to pass it as JSON and it will override only the values provided
+auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml --gsheet_feeder.sheet="use it on another sheets doc" --gsheet_feeder.header=2 --gsheet_feeder.columns='{"url": "link"}'
+# all the configurations come from orchestration.yaml and specifies that s3 files should be private
+auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml --s3_storage.private=1
+```
+
+### Extra notes on configuration
+#### Google Drive
+To use Google Drive storage you need the id of the shared folder in the `config.yaml` file which must be shared with the service account eg `autoarchiverservice@auto-archiver-111111.iam.gserviceaccount.com` and then you can use `--storage=gd`
+
+#### Telethon + Instagram with telegram bot
+The first time you run, you will be prompted to do a authentication with the phone number associated, alternatively you can put your `anon.session` in the root.
+
+
+## Running on Google Sheets Feeder (gsheet_feeder)
+The `--gseets_feeder.sheet` property is the name of the Google Sheet to check for URLs. 
+This sheet must have been shared with the Google Service account used by `gspread`. 
+This sheet must also have specific columns (case-insensitive) in the `header` as specified in [Gsheet.configs](src/auto_archiver/utils/gsheet.py). The default names of these columns and their purpose is:
+
+Inputs:
+
+* **Link** *(required)*: the URL of the post to archive
+* **Destination folder**: custom folder for archived file (regardless of storage)
+
+Outputs:
+* **Archive status** *(required)*: Status of archive operation
+* **Archive location**: URL of archived post
+* **Archive date**: Date archived
+* **Thumbnail**: Embeds a thumbnail for the post in the spreadsheet
+* **Timestamp**: Timestamp of original post
+* **Title**: Post title
+* **Text**: Post text
+* **Screenshot**: Link to screenshot of post
+* **Hash**: Hash of archived HTML file (which contains hashes of post media) - for checksums/verification
+* **Perceptual Hash**: Perceptual hashes of found images - these can be used for de-duplication of content
+* **WACZ**: Link to a WACZ web archive of post
+* **ReplayWebpage**: Link to a ReplayWebpage viewer of the WACZ archive
+
+For example, this is a spreadsheet configured with all of the columns for the auto archiver and a few URLs to archive. (Note that the column names are not case sensitive.)
+
+![A screenshot of a Google Spreadsheet with column headers defined as above, and several Youtube and Twitter URLs in the "Link" column](docs/demo-before.png)
+
+Now the auto archiver can be invoked, with this command in this example: `docker run --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver:dockerize --config secrets/orchestration-global.yaml --gsheet_feeder.sheet "Auto archive test 2023-2"`. Note that the sheet name has been overridden/specified in the command line invocation.
+
+When the auto archiver starts running, it updates the "Archive status" column.
+
+![A screenshot of a Google Spreadsheet with column headers defined as above, and several Youtube and Twitter URLs in the "Link" column. The auto archiver has added "archive in progress" to one of the status columns.](docs/demo-progress.png)
+
+The links are downloaded and archived, and the spreadsheet is updated to the following:
+
+![A screenshot of a Google Spreadsheet with videos archived and metadata added per the description of the columns above.](docs/demo-after.png)
+
+Note that the first row is skipped, as it is assumed to be a header row (`--gsheet_feeder.header=1` and you can change it if you use more rows above). Rows with an empty URL column, or a non-empty archive column are also skipped. All sheets in the document will be checked.
+
+The "archive location" link contains the path of the archived file, in local storage, S3, or in Google Drive.
+
+![The archive result for a link in the demo sheet.](docs/demo-archive.png)
+
+---
+## Development
+Use `python -m src.auto_archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml` to run from the local development environment.
+
+#### Docker development
+working with docker locally:
+  * `docker build . -t auto-archiver` to build a local image
+  * `docker run --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets auto-archiver  --config secrets/orchestration.yaml`
+    * to use local archive, also create a volume `-v` for it by adding `-v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive`
+
+
+release to docker hub
+  * `docker image tag auto-archiver bellingcat/auto-archiver:latest`
+  * `docker push bellingcat/auto-archiver`
+
+#### RELEASE
+* update version in [version.py](src/auto_archiver/version.py)

-# Module Documentation
-
-These pages describe the core modules that come with Auto Archiver and provide the main functionality for archiving websites on the internet. There are five core module types:
-
-1. Feeders - these 'feed' information (the URLs) from various sources to the Auto Archiver for processing
-2. Extractors - these 'extract' the page data for a given URL that is fed in by a feeder
-3. Enrichers - these 'enrich' the data extracted in the previous step with additional information
-4. Storage - these 'store' the data in a persistent location (on disk, Google Drive etc.)
-5. Databases - these 'store' the status of the entire archiving process in a log file or database.

-# Creating Your Own Modules
-
-Modules are what's used to extend Auto Archiver to process different websites or media, and/or transform the data in a way that suits your needs. In most cases, the [Core Modules](../core_modules.md) should be sufficient for every day use, but the most common use-cases for making your own Modules include:
-
-1. Extracting data from a website which doesn't work with the current core extractors.
-2. Enriching or altering the data before saving with additional information that the core enrichers do not offer.
-3. Storing your data in a different format/location from what the core storage providers offer.
-
-## Setting up the folder structure
-
-1. First, decide what type of module you wish to create. Check the types of modules on the [](../core_modules.md) page to decide what type you need. (Note: a module can be more than one type, more on that below)
-2. Create a new python package (a folder) with the name of your module (in this tutorial, we'll call it `awesome_extractor`).
-3. Create the `__manifest__.py` and an the `awesome_extractor.py` files in this folder.

-When done, you should have a module structure as follows:
-
-```
-.
-├── awesome_extractor
-│   ├── __manifest__.py
-│   └── awesome_extractor.py
-``` 
-
-Check out the [core modules](https://github.com/bellingcat/auto-archiver/tree/main/src/auto_archiver/modules) in the Auto Archiver repository for examples of the folder structure for real-world modules.
-
-## Populating the Manifest File
-
-The manifest file is where you define the core information of your module. It is a python dict containing important information, here's an example file:
-
-```{include} ../../../tests/data/test_modules/example_module/__manifest__.py
-:name: __manifest__.py
-:literal:
-:parser: python
-```
-
-## Creating the Python Code
-
-The next step is to create your module code. First, create a class which should subclass the base module types from `auto_archiver.core`, here's an example class for the `awesome_extractor` module which is an `extractor`:
-
-```{code-block} python
-:filename: awesome_extractor.py
-
-from auto_archiver.core import Extractor, Metadata
-
-def AwesomeExtractor(Extractor):
-
-    def download(self, item: Metadata) -> Metadata | False:
-      url = item.get_url()
-      # download the content and create the metadata object
-      metadata = ...
-      return metadata
-```

-### Building the Docs
-
-The documentation is built using [Sphinx](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/) and [AutoAPI](https://sphinx-autoapi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and hosted on ReadTheDocs.
-To build the documentation locally, run the following commands:
-
-**Install required dependencies:**
-- Install the docs group of dependencies: 
-```shell
-# only the docs dependencies
-poetry install --only docs
-
-# or for all dependencies 
-poetry install
-```
-- Either use [poetry-plugin-shell](https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry-plugin-shell) to activate the virtual environment: `poetry shell`
-- Or prepend the following commands with `poetry run`
-
-**Create the documentation:**
-- Build the documentation: 
-```shell
-# Using makefile (Linux/macOS):
-make -C docs html
-
-# or using sphinx directly (Windows/Linux/macOS):
-sphinx-build -b html docs/source docs/_build/html
-```
-- If you make significant changes and want a fresh build run: `make -C docs clean` to remove the old build files.
-
-**Viewing the documentation:**
-```shell
-# to open the documentation in your browser.
-open docs/_build/html/index.html
-
-# or run autobuild to automatically update the documentation when you make changes
-sphinx-autobuild docs/source docs/_build/html
-```
-
-
-### Managing Readthedocs (RTD) Versions
-
-Version management is done at [https://app.readthedocs.org/projects/auto-archiver/](https://app.readthedocs.org/projects/auto-archiver/)
-(login required). Once logged in, you can create new versions, delete old versions or change visibility of versions. More info on
-[RTD](https://docs.readthedocs.com/platform/stable/versions.html).
-
-Currently, the Auto Archiver project is set up to automatically create a new docs version for each `vX.Y.Z` release. For more on this,
-see the RTD [instructions on automation](https://docs.readthedocs.com/platform/stable/guides/automation-rules.html) or edit the existing automation rule in the project settings.

-# Release Process
-
-```{note} This is a work in progress.
-```
-### Update the project version
-
-Update the version number in the project file: [pyproject.toml](../../pyproject.toml) following SemVer:
-```toml
-[project]
-name = "auto-archiver"
-version = "0.1.1"
-```
-Then commit and push the changes.
-
-* The package version is automatically updated in PyPi using the workflow [python-publish.yml](../../.github/workflows/python-publish.yml)
-* A Docker image is automatically pushed with the git tag to dockerhub using the workflow [docker-publish.yml](../../.github/workflows/docker-publish.yml)
-
-### Create the release on Git
-
-The release needs a git tag which should match the project version number, prefixed with a 'v'. For example, if the project version is `0.1.1`, the git tag should be `v0.1.1`.
-This can be done the usual way, or created within the Github UI when you create the release.
-
-Go to GitHub releases > new release > create the release with the new tag and the release notes.
-
-
-manual release to docker hub
-  * `docker image tag auto-archiver bellingcat/auto-archiver:latest`
-  * `docker push bellingcat/auto-archiver`
-

-### Building the Settings Page
-
-The Settings page is built as part of the python-publish workflow and packaged within the app.

-# Configuration Editor
-
-The [configuration editor](../installation/config_editor.md), is an easy-to-use UI for users to edit their auto-archiver settings.
-
-The single-file app is built using React and vite. To get started developing the package, follow these steps:
-
-1. Make sure you have Node v22 installed.
-
-```{note} Tip: if you don't have node installed:
-
-Use `nvm` to manage your node installations. Use: 
-`curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.1/install.sh | bash` to install `nvm` and then `nvm i 22` to install Node v22
-```
-
-2. Generate the `schema.json` file for the currently installed modules using `python scripts/generate_settings_schema.py`
-3. Go to the settings folder `cd scripts/settings/` and build your environment with `npm i`
-4. Run a development version of the page with `npm run dev` and then open localhost:5173.
-5. Build a release version of the page with `npm run build`
-
-A release version creates a single-file app called `dist/index.html`. This file should be copied to `docs/source/installation/settings_base.html` so that it can be integrated into the sphinx docs.
-
-```{note}
-
-The single-file app dist/index.html does not include any `<html>` or `<head>` tags as it is designed to be built into a RTD docs page. Edit `index.html` in the settings folder if you wish to modify the built page.
-```
-
-## Readthedocs Integration
-
-The configuration editor is built as part of the RTD deployment (see `.readthedocs.yaml` file). This command is run every time RTD is built:
-
-`cd scripts/settings && npm install && npm run build && yes | cp dist/index.html ../../docs/source/installation/settings_base.html && cd ../..`

-# Style Guide
-
-
-The project uses [Ruff](https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/) for linting and  formatting.
-Our style configurations are set in the `pyproject.toml` file. If needed, you can modify them there.
-
-
-### **Formatting (Auto-Run Before Commit) 🛠️**  
-
-We have a pre-commit hook to run the formatter before you commit.
-This requires you to set it up once locally, then it will run automatically when you commit changes.
-
-```shell
-poetry run pre-commit install
-```
-
-Ruff can also be to run automatically.
-Alternative: Ruff can also be [integrated with most editors](https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/editors/setup/)  for real-time formatting.
-
-If you wish to disable the pre-commit hook (for example, if you want to commit some WIP code) you can use the `--no-verify` flag when you commit.
-For example: `git commit -m "WIP Code" --no-verify`
-
-### **Linting (Check Before Pushing) 🔍**
-
-We recommend you also run the linter before pushing code. 
-
-We have [Makefile](../../../Makefile) commands to run common tasks. 
-
-Tip: if you're on Windows you might need to install `make` first, or alternatively you can use ruff commands directly.
-
-
-**Lint Check:** This outputs a report of any issues found, without attempting to fix them: 
-```shell
-make ruff-check
-```
-
-Tip: To see a more detailed linting report, you can remove the following line from the `pyproject.toml` file:
-```toml
-[tool.ruff]
-
-# Remove this for a more detailed lint report
-output-format = "concise"
-```
-
-**Lint Fix:** This command will attempt to fix some of the issues it picked up with the lint check.
-
-Note not all warnings can be fixed automatically.
-
-⚠️ Warning: This can cause breaking changes. ⚠️
-
-Most fixes are safe, but some non-standard practices such as dynamic loading are not picked up by linters. Ensure you check any modifications by this before committing them.
-```shell
-make ruff-clean
-```
-
-**Changing Configurations ⚙️**
-
-
-Our rules are quite lenient for general usage, but if you want to run more rigorous checks you can then run checks with additional rules to see more nuanced errors which you can review manually.
-Check out the [ruff documentation](https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/configuration/) for the full list of rules.
-One example is to extend the selected rules for linting the `pyproject.toml` file:
-
-```toml 
-[tool.ruff.lint]
-# Extend the rules to check for by adding them to this option:
-# See documentation for more details: https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/rules/
-extend-select = ["B"]
-```
-
-Then re-run the `make ruff-check` command to see the new rules in action.

-# Testing
-
-`pytest` is used for testing. There are two main types of tests:
-
-1. 'core' tests which should be run on every change
-2. 'download' tests which hit the network. These tests will do things like make API calls (e.g. Twitter, Bluesky etc.) and should be run regularly to make sure that APIs have not changed, they take longer.
-
-
-## Running Tests 
-
-1. Make sure you've installed the dev dependencies with `poetry install --with dev`
-2. Tests can be run as follows:
-```{code} bash
-#### Command prefix of 'poetry run' removed here for simplicity
-# run core tests
-pytest -ra -v -m "not download"
-# run download tests
-pytest -ra -v -m "download"
-# run all tests
-pytest -ra -v
-
-
-# run a specific test file
-pytest -ra -v tests/test_file.py
-# run a specific test function
-pytest -ra -v tests/test_file.py::test_function_name
-```
-
-3. Some tests require environment variables to be set. You can use the example `tests/.env.test.example` file as a template. Copy it to `tests/.env.test` and fill in the required values. This file will be loaded automatically by `pytest`.
-```{code} bash

-# Archiving Overview
-
-The archiver archives web pages using the following workflow
-1. **Feeder** gets the links (from a spreadsheet, from the console, ...)
-2. **Extractor** tries to extract content from the given link (e.g. videos from youtube, images from Twitter...)
-3. **Enricher** adds more info to the content (hashes, thumbnails, ...)
-4. **Formatter** creates a report from all the archived content (HTML, PDF, ...)
-5. **Database** knows what's been archived and also stores the archive result (spreadsheet, CSV, or just the console)
-
-Each step in the workflow is handled by 'modules' that interact with the data in different ways. For example, the Twitter Extractor Module would extract information from the Twitter website. The AntiBot Module will download HTML and take screenshots of the given page. See the [core modules page](core_modules.md) for an overview of all the modules that are available.
-
-Auto-archiver must have at least one module defined for each step of the workflow. This is done by setting the [configuration](installation/configurations.md) for your auto-archiver instance.
-
-Here's the complete workflow that the auto-archiver goes through:
-
-```mermaid

-
-To get round this limitation, we can use **cookies** (information about a logged in user) to mimic being logged in to Twitter. There are two ways to pass cookies to Auto Archiver. One is from a file, and the other is from a browser profile on your computer.
-
-In this tutorial, we will export the Twitter cookies from our browser and add them to Auto Archiver
-
-**1. Installing a cookie exporter extension**
-
-First, we need to install an extension in our browser to export the cookies for a certain site. The [FAQ on yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/FAQ#how-do-i-pass-cookies-to-yt-dlp) provides some suggestions: Get [cookies.txt LOCALLY](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/get-cookiestxt-locally/cclelndahbckbenkjhflpdbgdldlbecc) for Chrome or [cookies.txt](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-txt/) for Firefox.
-
-**2. Export the cookies**
-
-```{note} See the note [here](../installation/authentication.md#recommendations-for-authentication) on why you shouldn't use your own personal account for archiving.
-```
-
-Once the extension is installed in your preferred browser, login to Twitter in this browser, and then activate the extension and export the cookies. You can choose to export all your cookies for your browser, or just cookies for this specific site. In the image below, we're only exporting cookies for Twitter/x.com:
-
-![extract cookies](extract_cookies.png)
-
-
-**3. Adding the cookies file to Auto Archiver**
-
-You now will have a file called `cookies.txt` (tip: name it `twitter_cookies.txt` if you only exported cookies for Twitter), which needs to be added to Auto Archiver.
-
-Do this by going into your Auto Archiver configuration file, and editing the `authentication` section. We will add the `cookies_file` option for the site `x.com,twitter.com`.
-
-```{note} For websites that have multiple URLs (like x.com and twitter.com) you can 'reuse' the same login information without duplicating it using a comma separated list of domain names.
-```
-
-I've saved my `twitter_cookies.txt` file in a `secrets` folder, so here's how my authentication section looks now:
-
-```{code} yaml
-:caption: orchestration.yaml
-
-...
-
-authentication:
-   x.com,twitter.com:
-      cookies_file: secrets/twitter_cookies.txt
-...
-```
-
-**4. Re-run your archiving with the cookies enabled**
-
-Now, the next time we re-run Auto Archiver, the cookies from our logged-in session will be used by Auto Archiver, and restricted/sensitive tweets can be downloaded!
-
-```{code} console
->>> auto-archiver https://x.com/SozinhoRamalho/status/1876710769913450647                                                                                   ✭ ✱ ◼

-
-### Finishing Touches
-
-You've now successfully exported your cookies from a logged-in session in your browser, and used them to authenticate with Twitter and download a sensitive tweet. Congratulations!
-
-Finally,Some important things to remember:
-
-1. It's best not to use your own personal account for archiving. [Here's why](../installation/authentication.md#recommendations-for-authentication).
-2. Cookies can be short-lived, so may need updating. Sometimes, a website session may 'expire' or a website may force you to login again. In these instances, you'll need to repeat the export step (step 2) after logging in again to update your cookies.

-yt-dlp provides [a detailed guide to POTs](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/PO-Token-Guide).
-
-### How Auto Archiver Uses POT
-This feature is enabled for the Generic Archiver via two yt-dlp plugins:
-
-- **Client-side plugin**: [yt-dlp-get-pot](https://github.com/coletdjnz/yt-dlp-get-pot)  
-  Detects when a token is required and requests one from a provider.
-
-- **Provider plugin**: [bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider](https://github.com/Brainicism/bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider)  
-  Includes both a Python plugin and a **Node.js server or script** to generate the token.
-
-These are installed in our Poetry environment.
-
-### Integration Methods
-
-**Docker (Recommended)**:
-
-When running the Auto Archiver using the Docker image, we use the [Node.js token generation script](https://github.com/Brainicism/bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider/tree/master/server).
-This is to avoid managing a separate server process, and is handled automatically inside the Docker container when needed.
-
-This is already included in the Docker image, however if you need to disable this you can set the config option `bguils_po_token_method` under the `generic_extractor` section of your `orchestration.yaml` config file to "disabled".
-```yaml
-generic_extractor:
-  bguils_po_token_method: "disabled"
-```
-
-**PyPi/ Local**:
-
-When using the Auto Archiver PyPI package, or running locally, you will need additional system requirements to run the token generation script, namely either Docker, or Node.js and Yarn.
-
-See the [bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider](https://github.com/Brainicism/bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider?tab=readme-ov-file#a-http-server-option) documentation for more details.
-
-⚠️WARNING⚠️: This will add the server scripts to the home directory of wherever this is running.
-
-- You can set the config option `bguils_po_token_method` under the `generic_extractor` section of your `orchestration.yaml` config file to "script" to enable the token generation script process locally.
-- Alternatively you can run the bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider server separately using their Docker image or Node.js server.
-
-### Notes
-
-- The token generation script is only triggered when needed by yt-dlp, so it should have no effect unless YouTube requests a POT.
-- If you're running the Auto Archiver in Docker, this is set up automatically.
-- If you're running locally, you'll need to run the setup script manually or enable the feature in your config.
-- You can set up both the server and the script, and the plugin will fallback on each other if needed. This is recommended for robustness!

-| Option     | Behavior                                                                                                                                   | Docker Default? |
-|------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------- |
-| `auto`     | Docker: Automatically downloads and uses the token generation script. Local: Does nothing; assumes a separate server is running externally. | ✅ Yes           |
-| `script`   | Explicitly downloads and uses the token generation script, even locally.                                                                   | ❌ No            |
-| `disabled` | Disables token generation completely.                                                                                                      | ❌ No            |
-
-Example configuration:
-
- 
-```yaml
-generic_extractor:
-  # ...  
-  bguils_po_token_method: "script"
-  # For debugging add the verbose flag here:
-  ytdlp_args: "--no-abort-on-error --abort-on-error --verbose"
-
-```
-
-**Advanced Configuration:**
-
-If you change the default port of the bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider server, you can pass the updated values using our `extractor_args` option for the gereric extractor.
-
-```yaml
-generic_extractor:
-  ytdlp_args: "--no-abort-on-error --abort-on-error --verbose"
-  ytdlp_update_interval: 5
-  bguils_po_token_method: "script"
-  extractor_args:
-    youtube:
-      getpot_bgutil_baseurl: "http://127.0.0.1:8080"
-      player_client: web,tv
-```
-For more details on this for bgutils see [here](https://github.com/Brainicism/bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider?tab=readme-ov-file#usage)
-
-### Checking the logs
-
-To verify that the POT process working, look for the following lines in your log after adding the config option:
-
-```shell
-[GetPOT] BgUtilScript: Generating POT via script: /Users/you/bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider/server/build/generate_once.js
-[debug] [GetPOT] BgUtilScript: Executing command to get POT via script: /Users/you/.nvm/versions/node/v20.18.0/bin/node /Users/you/bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider/server/build/generate_once.js -v ymCMy8OflKM

-[debug] [GetPOT] Fetching gvs PO Token for tv client
-```
-
-If it can't find the script or something, you'll see something like this:
-```shell
-[debug] [GetPOT] Fetching player PO Token for tv client
-WARNING: [GetPOT] BgUtilScript: Script path doesn't exist: /Users/you/bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider/server/build/generate_once.js. Please make sure the script has been transpiled correctly.
-WARNING: [GetPOT] BgUtilHTTP: Error reaching GET http://127.0.0.1:4416/ping (caused by TransportError). Please make sure that the server is reachable at http://127.0.0.1:4416.
-[debug] [GetPOT] No player PO Token provider available for tv client
-```
-
-In this case check that the script has been transpiled correctly and is available at the path specified in the log, 
-or that the server is running and reachable.

-# Using Google Sheets
-
-This guide explains how to set up Google Sheets to process URLs automatically and then store the archiving status back into the Google sheet. It is broadly split into 3 steps:
-
-1. Setting up your Google Sheet
-2. Setting up a service account so Auto Archiver can access the sheet
-3. Setting the Auto Archiver settings
-
-
-## 1. Setting up a Google Service Account
-
-Once your Google Sheet is set up, you need to create what's called a 'service account' that will allow the Auto Archiver to access it.
-
-To do this, you can either:
-* a) follow the steps in [this guide](https://gspread.readthedocs.io/en/latest/oauth2.html) all the way up until step 8. You should have downloaded a file called `service_account.json` and should save it in the `secrets/` folder
-* b) run the following script to automatically generate the file:
-```{code} bash
-https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bellingcat/auto-archiver/refs/heads/main/scripts/generate_google_services.sh | bash -s --
-```
-This uses gcloud to create a new project, a new user and downloads the service account automatically for you. The service account file will have the name `service_account-XXXXXXX.json` where XXXXXXX is a random 16 letter/digit string for the project created.
-
-```{note}
-To save the generated file to a different folder, pass an argument as follows:
-```{code} bash
-https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bellingcat/auto-archiver/refs/heads/main/scripts/generate_google_services.sh | bash -s -- /path/to/secrets
-```
-
-----------
-
-Once you've downloaded the file, you can save it to `secrets/service_account.json` (the default name), or to another file and then change the location in the settings (see step 4).
-
-Also make sure to **note down** the email address for this service account. You'll need that for step 3.
-
-```{note}
-The email address created in this step can be found either by opening the `service_account.json` file, or if you used b) the `generate_google_services.sh` script, then the script will have printed it out for you.
-
-The email address will look something like `user@project-name.iam.gserviceaccount.com`
-```
-
-
-## 2. Setting up your Google Sheet
-
-We recommend copying [this template Google Sheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NJZo_XZUBKTI1Ghlgi4nTPVvCfb0HXAs6j5tNGas72k/edit?usp=sharing) as a starting point for your project, as this matches all the columns required.
-
-But if you like, you can also create your own custom sheet. The only columns required are 'link', 'archive status', and 'archive location'. 'link' is the column with the URLs that you want the Auto Archiver to archive, the other two record the archival status and result. 
-
-Here's an overview of all the columns, and what a complete sheet would look like.
-
-**Inputs:**
-
-These are processed by the Gsheet Feeder and passed to the Auto Archiver.
-
-* **Link** *(required)*: the URL of the post that is to be archived
-* **Destination folder**: custom folder for archived file (regardless of storage)
-
-**Outputs:**
-
-These are updated by the Gsheet DB module during the archiving process.
-Note the required columns are only required if you are using the Gsheet DB module as well as the feeder.
-
-* **Archive status** *(required)*: Status of archive operation
-* **Archive location**: URL of archived post
-* **Archive date**: Date archived
-* **Thumbnail**: Embeds a thumbnail for the post in the spreadsheet
-* **Timestamp**: Timestamp of original post
-* **Title**: Post title
-* **Text**: Post text
-* **Screenshot**: Link to screenshot of post
-* **Hash**: Hash of archived HTML file (which contains hashes of post media) - for checksums/verification
-* **Perceptual Hash**: Perceptual hashes of found images - these can be used for de-duplication of content
-* **WACZ**: Link to a WACZ web archive of post
-* **ReplayWebpage**: Link to a ReplayWebpage viewer of the WACZ archive
-
-For example, this is a spreadsheet configured with all of the columns for the auto archiver and a few URLs to archive. 
-In this example the Ghseet Feeder and Gsheet DB are being used, and the archive is in progress.
-(Note that the column names are not case sensitive.)
-
-![A screenshot of a Google Spreadsheet with column headers defined as above, and several Youtube and Twitter URLs in the "Link" column](../../demo-before.png)
-
-We'll change the name of the 'Destination Folder' column in the Step 4a.
-
-## 3. Share your Google Sheet with your Service Account email address
-
-Remember that email address you copied in Step 1? Now that you've set up your Google sheet, click 'Share' in the top
-right hand corner and enter the email address. Make sure to give the account **Editor** access. Here's how that looks:
-
-![Share sheet](share_sheet.png)
-
-## 4. Setting up the configuration file
-
-The final step is to set your configuration. First, make sure you have `gsheet_feeder_db` set in the `steps.feeders` section of your config. If you wish to store the results of the archiving process back in your Google sheet, make sure to also put `gsheet_feeder_db` setting in the `steps.databases` section. Here's how this might look:
-
-```{code} yaml
-steps:
-    feeders:
-    - gsheet_feeder_db
-    ...
-    databases:
-    - gsheet_feeder_db # optional, if you also want to store the results in the Google sheet and tract the status of active archivals.
-    ...
-```
-
-Next, set up the `gsheet_feeder_db` configuration settings in the 'Configurations' part of the config `orchestration.yaml` file. Open up the file, and set the `gsheet_feeder_db.sheet` setting or the `gsheet_feeder_db.sheet_id` setting. The `sheet` should be the name of your sheet, as it shows in the top left of the sheet. 
-For example, the sheet [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NJZo_XZUBKTI1Ghlgi4nTPVvCfb0HXAs6j5tNGas72k/edit?gid=0#gid=0) is called 'Public Auto Archiver template'.
-
-If you saved your `service_account.json` file to anywhere other than the default location (`secrets/service_account.json`), then also make sure to change that now:
-
-Here's how this might look:
-
-```{code} yaml
-...
-gsheet_feeder_db:
-    sheet: 'My Awesome Sheet'
-    service_account: secrets/service_account-XXXXX.json # or leave as secrets/service_account.json
-    ...
-```
-
-You can also pass these settings directly on the command line without having to edit the file, here'a an example of how to do that (using docker):
-
-`docker run -it --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver:dockerize --gsheet_feeder_db.sheet "My Awesome Sheet 2"`. 
-
-Here, the sheet name has been overridden/specified in the command line invocation.
-
-### 4a. (Optional) Changing the column names
-
-In step 1, we said we would change the name of the 'Destination Folder'. Perhaps you don't like this name, or already have a sheet with a different name. In our example here, we want to name this column 'Save Folder'. To do this, we need to edit the `ghseet_feeder_db.column` setting in the configuration file. 
-For more information on this setting, see the [Gsheet Feeder Database docs](../modules/autogen/feeder/gsheet_feeder_db.md#configuration-options). We will first copy the default settings from the Gsheet Feeder docs for the 'column' settings, and then edit the 'Destination Folder' section to rename it 'Save Folder'. Our final configuration section looks like:
-
-```{code} yaml
-...
-gsheet_feeder_db:
-    sheet: 'My Awesome Sheet'
-    header: 1
-    service_account: secrets/service_account.json
-    columns:
-      url: link
-      status: archive status
-      folder: save folder # <-- note how this value has been changed
-      archive: archive location
-      date: archive date
-      thumbnail: thumbnail
-      timestamp: upload timestamp
-      title: upload title
-      text: text content
-      screenshot: screenshot
-      hash: hash
-      pdq_hash: perceptual hashes
-      wacz: wacz
-      replaywebpage: replaywebpage
-    
-```
-## 4. Running the Auto Archiver
-### Feeding the URLs to the Auto Archiver
-
-The URLs to be archived should be added to the Google Sheet, and optionally a folder value. Leave all the other configured columns empty (but you may add additional columns for your own use, as long as they don't conflict with the column names mapped in the configuration file).
-The Auto Archiver will archive  any URLs which have an empty 'status' column
-
-### Viewing the Results after archiving
-
-With the `ghseet_feeder_db` installed, once you start running the Auto Archiver, it will update the "Archive status" column.
-The status will be set to "Archive in progress" once the archival starts. If the archival is stopped during a run, either manually or because an error is raised the status value should be cleared.
-
-![A screenshot of a Google Spreadsheet with column headers defined as above, and several Youtube and Twitter URLs in the "Link" column. The auto archiver has added "archive in progress" to one of the status columns.](../../demo-progress.png)
-
-The links are downloaded and archived, and the spreadsheet is updated to the following:
-
-![A screenshot of a Google Spreadsheet with videos archived and metadata added per the description of the columns above.](../../demo-after.png)
-
-Note that the first row is skipped, as it is assumed to be a header row (`--gsheet_feeder_db.header=1` and you can change it if you use more rows above). Rows with an empty URL column, or a non-empty archive column are also skipped. All sheets in the document will be checked.
-
-The "archive location" link contains the path of the archived file, in local storage, S3, or in Google Drive.
-
-![The archive result for a link in the demo sheet.](../../demo-archive.png)
-
-### Troubleshooting
-
-**Hanging Archival in progress status**
-
-Occasionally system crashes or other unexpected events can cause the Auto Archiver to exit without cleaning up the status value.
-If you are sure that all archival processes have stopped but you still see "Archive in progress" in the status column, you can manually clear the status column to allow the Auto Archiver to retry that archival on the next run.
-
-**Nothing archived status**
-
-Sometimes this means the tool is genuinely unable to extract the content at this point in time, but sometimes it can be resolved with different configurations. 
-Try:
-  - Turning on additional 'extractor' types in the configuration file (this can appear as 'no archiver' in the status column). 
-  - Changing credentials or refreshing session files for extractors which require them
-  - Check if the extractors can accept any additional configurations such as adding a cookie file.

-# Keeping Logs
-
-Auto Archiver's logs can be helpful for debugging problematic archiving processes. This guide shows you how to use the logs configuration.
-
-## Setting up logging
-
-Logging settings can be set on the command line or using the orchestration config file ([learn more](../installation/configuration)). A special `logging` section defines the logging options.
-
-#### Enabling or Disabling Logging
-
-Logging to the console is enabled by default. If you want to globally disable Auto Archiver's logging, then you can set `enabled: false` in your `logging` config file:
-
-```{code} yaml
-:caption: orchestration.yaml
-...
-logging:
-   enabled: false
-...
-```
-
-```{note}
-This will disable all logs from Auto Archiver, but it does not disable logs for other tools that the Auto Archiver uses (for example: yt-dlp, firefox or ffmpeg). These logs will still appear in your console.
-```
-
-#### Logging Level
-
-There are 7 logging levels in total, with 5 of them used in this tool. They are: `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `SUCCESS`, `WARNING` and `ERROR`. If you select a level, only that and higher (more serious) levels will be included. `DEBUG` is the most verbose, while `ERROR` is the least verbose. 
-
-Change the warning level by setting the value in your orchestration config file:
-
-```{code} yaml
-:caption: orchestration.yaml
-
-...
-logging:
-    level: DEBUG # or INFO / WARNING / ERROR
-...
-```
-
-For normal usage, it is recommended to use the `INFO` level, or if you prefer quieter logs with less information, you can use the `WARNING` level. If you encounter issues with the archiving, then it's recommended to enable the `DEBUG` level.
-
-```{note} To learn about all logging levels, see the [loguru documentation](https://loguru.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api/logger.html)
-```
-
-### Logging Format
-By default, the console logs are formatted in a human-readable way and the file logs are formatted in JSON. This is new from version 1.1.1. If you want to change the format of the console logs to JSON too you can set the `format:` option in your logging settings. 
-
-```{code} yaml
-:caption: orchestration.yaml
-
-logging:
-    format: json
-```
-
-When the Auto Archiver is writing logs it will include context about specific tasks, so if you are archiving a URL from a Google Sheet, both the URL (and a unique `trace_id` for that URL's archiving attempt) and the Spreadsheet name and row will be included in the logs. This is useful for debugging and understanding what the Auto Archiver is doing.
-
-Using JSON allows you to easily parse the logs and extract specific information, tools like [`jq`](https://jqlang.org/) can be used to filter and search through the logs.
-
-### Logging to a file
-
-As default, auto-archiver will log to the console. But if you wish to store your logs for future reference, or you are running the auto-archiver from within code a implementation, then you may wish to enable file logging. This can be done by setting the `file:` config value in the logging settings.
-
-**Rotation:** For file logging, you can choose to 'rotate' your log files (creating new log files) so they do not get too large. Change this by setting the 'rotation' option in your logging settings. For a full list of rotation options, see the [loguru docs](https://loguru.readthedocs.io/en/stable/overview.html#easier-file-logging-with-rotation-retention-compression).
-
-```{code} yaml
-:caption: orchestration.yaml
-
-logging:
-    ...
-    file: /my/log/file.log
-    rotation: 1 day
-```
-
-### Logging each level to a different file
-If you want to log each level to a different file, you can do this by setting the `each_level_in_separate_file:` option to `true` and also setting your `file:` name, a new file will be created for each of the 5 levels used, by appending the `0_level` name to the file like so `your_file.log.1_error`. In this case the `level:` option is ignored, and all levels will be logged. 
-
-
-```{code} yaml
-:caption: orchestration.yaml
-
-logging:
-    each_level_in_separate_file: true
-    file: /my/logs/file.log 
-```
-This will create the following files:
-- `/my/logs/file.log.1_debug`
-- `/my/logs/file.log.2_info`
-- `/my/logs/file.log.3_success`
-- `/my/logs/file.log.4_warning`
-- `/my/logs/file.log.5_error`
-
-### Full logging example
-
-The below example logs only `DEBUG` logs to the console and to the file `/my/file.log`, rotating that file once per week:
-
-```{code} yaml
-:caption: orchestration.yaml
-
-logging:
-    level: DEBUG
-    format: json
-    file: /my/file.log
-    rotation: 1 week

-# InstagrAPI Server
-
-The instagram API Extractor requires access to a running instance of the InstagrAPI server. 
-We have a lightweight script with the endpoints required for our Instagram API Extractor module which you can run locally, or via Docker.
-
-
-
-⚠️ Warning: Remember that it's best not to use your own personal account for archiving. [Here's why](../installation/authentication.md#recommendations-for-authentication).
-## Quick Start: Using Docker
-
-We've provided a convenient shell script (`run_instagrapi_server.sh`) that simplifies the process of setting up and running the Instagrapi server in Docker. This script handles building the Docker image, setting up credentials, and starting the container.
-
-### 🔧 Running the script:
-
-Run this script either from the repository root or from within the `scripts/instagrapi_server` directory:
-
-```bash
-./scripts/instagrapi_server/run_instagrapi_server.sh
-```
-
-This script will:
-- Prompt for your Instagram username and password.
-- Create the necessary `.env` file.
-- Build the Docker image.
-- Start the Docker container and authenticate with Instagram, creating a session automatically.
-
-### ⏱ To run the server again later:
-```bash
-docker start ig-instasrv
-```
-
-### 🐛 Debugging:
-View logs:
-```bash
-docker logs ig-instasrv
-```
-
-
-### Overview: How the Setup Works
-
-1. You enter your Instagram credentials in a local `.env` file
-2. You run the server **once locally** to generate a session file
-3. After that, you can choose to run the server again locally or inside Docker without needing to log in again
-
----
-
-## Optional: Manual / Local Setup
-
-If you'd prefer to run the server manually (without Docker), you can follow these steps:
-
-
-1. **Navigate to the server folder (and stay there for the rest of this guide)**:
-   ```bash
-   cd scripts/instagrapi_server
-   ```
-
-2. **Create a `secrets/` folder** (if it doesn't already exist in `scripts/instagrapi_server`):
-   ```bash
-   mkdir -p secrets
-   ```
-
-3. **Create a `.env` file** inside `secrets/` with your Instagram credentials:
-   ```dotenv
-   INSTAGRAM_USERNAME="your_username"
-   INSTAGRAM_PASSWORD="your_password"
-   ```
-
-4. **Install dependencies** using the pyproject.toml file:
-  
-   ```bash
-   poetry install --no-root
-   ```
-
-5. **Run the server locally**:
-   ```bash
-   poetry run uvicorn src.instaserver:app --port 8000
-   ```
-
-6. **Watch for the message**:
-   ```
-   Login successful, session saved.
-   ```
-
-✅ Your session is now saved to `secrets/instagrapi_session.json`.
-
-### To run it again locally:
-```bash
-poetry run uvicorn src.instaserver:app --port 8000
-```
-
----
-
-## Adding the API Endpoint to Auto Archiver
-
-The server should now be running within that session, and accessible at  http://127.0.0.1:8000 
-
-You can set this in the Auto Archiver orchestration.yaml file like this:
-```yaml
-instagram_api_extractor:
-  api_endpoint: http://127.0.0.1:8000
-```
-
-
----
-
-## 2. Running the Server Again
-
-Once the session file is created, you should be able to run the server without logging in again.
-
-### To run it locally (from scripts/instagrapi_server):
-```bash
-poetry run uvicorn src.instgrapinstance.instaserver:app --port 8000
-```
-
----
-
-## 3. Running via Docker (After Setup is Complete, either locally or via the script)
-
-Once the `instagrapi_session.json` and `.env` files are set up, you can pass them Docker and it should authenticate successfully.
-
-### 🔨 Build the Docker image manually:
-```bash
-docker build -t instagrapi-server .
-```
-
-### ▶️ Run the container:
-```bash

-
-- **Remove the container**:
-  ```bash
-  docker rm ig-instasrv
-  ```
-
-- **Remove the Docker image**:
-  ```bash
-  docker rmi instagrapi-server
-  ```
-
-### ⏱ To run again later:
-```bash
-docker start ig-instasrv

-##  Notes
-
-- Never share your `.env` or `instagrapi_session.json` — these contain sensitive login data. 
-- If you want to reset your session, simply delete the `secrets/instagrapi_session.json` file and re-run the local server.

-
-If you are new to Auto Archiver, then you are already using the latest configuration format and this how-to is not relevant for you.
-```
-
-Versions 1.1.0+ of Auto Archiver has breaking changes in the configuration format, which means earlier configuration formats will not work without slight modifications.
-
-
-## Dropping `vk_extractor` module
-We have dropped the `vk_extractor` because of problems in a project we relied on. You will need to remove it from your configuration file, otherwise you will see an error like:
-
-```{code} console
-Module 'vk_extractor' not found. Are you sure it's installed/exists?
-```
-
-## Dropping `screenshot_enricher` module
-We have dropped the `screenshot_enricher` module because a new `antibot_extractor_enricher` (see below) module replaces its functionality more robustly and with less dependency hassle on geckodriver/firefox. You will need to remove it from your configuration file, otherwise you will see an error like:
-
-```{code} console
-Module 'screenshot_enricher' not found. Are you sure it's installed/exists?
-```
-
-
-## New `antibot_extractor_enricher` module and VkDropin
-We have added a new [`antibot_extractor_enricher`](../modules/autogen/extractor/antibot_extractor_enricher.md) module that uses a computer-controlled browser to extract content from websites that use anti-bot measures. You can add it to your configuration file like this:
-
-```{code} yaml
-steps:
-  extractors:
-    - antibot_extractor_enricher
-
-  # or alternatively, if you want to use it as an enricher:
-  enrichers:
-    - antibot_extractor_enricher
-```
-
-It will take a full page screenshot, a PDF capture, extract HTML source code, and any other relevant media. 
-
-It comes with Dropins that we will be adding and maintaining. 
-
-> Dropin: A module with site-specific behaviours that is loaded automatically. You don't need to add them to your configuration steps for them to run. Sometimes they need `authentication` configurations though.
-
-One such Dropin is the VkDropin which uses this automated browser to access VKontakte (VK) pages. You should add a username/password to the configuration file if you get authentication blocks from VK, to do so use the [authentication settings](authentication_how_to.md):
-
-```{code} yaml
-authentication:
-  vk.com:
-    username: your_username
-    password: your_password
-```
-
-See all available Dropins in [the source code](https://github.com/bellingcat/auto-archiver/tree/main/src/auto_archiver/modules/antibot_extractor_enricher/dropins). Usually each Dropin needs its own authentication settings, similarly to the VkDropin.

-# Upgrading from v0.12
-
-```{note} This how-to is only relevant for people who used Auto Archiver before February 2025 (versions prior to 0.13).
-
-If you are new to Auto Archiver, then you are already using the latest configuration format and this how-to is not relevant for you.
-```
-
-Versions 0.13+ of Auto Archiver has breaking changes in the configuration format, which means earlier configuration formats will not work without slight modifications.
-
-## How do I know if I need to update my configuration format?
-
-There are two simple ways to check if you need to update your format:
-
-1. When you try and run auto-archiver using your existing configuration file, you get an error about no feeders or formatters being configured, like:
-
-```{code} console
-AssertionError: No feeders were configured. Make sure to set at least one feeder in
-your configuration file or on the command line (using --feeders)
-```
-
-2. Within your configuration file, you have a `feeder:` option. This is the old format. An example old format:
-```{code} yaml
-
-steps:
-  feeder: cli_feeder
-...
-```
-
-The next two sections outline the two methods you have for updating your file.
-
-## 1. Manually edit the configuration file and change the values.
-
-This is recommended if you want to keep all your old settings. Follow the steps below to change the relevant settings:
-
-#### a) Feeder & Formatter Steps Settings
-
-The feeder and formatter settings have been changed from a single string to a list.
-
-- `steps.feeder (string)` → `steps.feeders (list)`
-- `steps.formatter (string)` → `steps.formatters (list)`
-
-Example:
-
-```{code} yaml
-
-steps:
-   feeder: cli_feeder
-   ...
-   formatter: html_formatter
-
-# the above should be changed to:
-steps:
-   feeders:
-   - cli_feeder
-   ...
-   formatters:
-   - html_formatter
-```
-
-```{note} Auto Archiver still only supports one feeder and formatter, but from v0.13 onwards they must be added to the configuration file as a list.
-```
-
-#### b) Extractor (formerly Archiver) Steps Settings
-
-With v0.13 of Auto Archiver, `archivers` have been renamed to `extractors` to better reflect what they actually do - extract information from a URL. Change the configuration by renaming:
-
-- `steps.archivers` → `steps.extractors`
-
-The names of the actual modules have also changed, so for any extractor modules you have enabled, you will need to rename the `archiver` part to `extractor`. Some examples:
-
-- `telethon_archiver` → `telethon_extractor`
-- `wacz_archiver_enricher` → `wacz_extractor_enricher`
-- `wayback_archiver_enricher` → `wayback_extractor_enricher`
-
-
-#### c) Module Renaming
-
-
-The `youtube_archiver` has been renamed to `generic_extractor` as it is considered the default/fallback extractor. Read more about the [generic extractor](../modules/autogen/extractor/generic_extractor.md).
-
-The `atlos` modules have been merged into one, as have the `gsheets` feeder and database.
-
-- `atlos_feeder` → `atlos_feeder_db_storage`
-- `atlos_storage` → `atlos_feeder_db_storage`
-- `atlos_db` → `atlos_feeder_db_storage`
-- `gsheet_feeder` → `gsheet_feeder_db`
-- `gsheet_db` → `gsheet_feeder_db`
-
-
-Example:
-```{code} yaml
-steps:
-   feeders:
-   - gsheet_feeder_db # formerly gsheet_feeder
-   ...
-   extractors: # formerly 'archivers'
-   - telethon_extractor # formerly telethon_archiver
-   - generic_extractor # formerly youtube_archiver
-   - vk_extractor # formerly vk_archiver
-   databases:
-   - gsheet_feeder_db # formerly gsheet_db
-   ...
-
-```
-
-```{note}
-
-Don't forget to also rename the configuration settings. For example:
-
-```{code} yaml
-gsheet_feeder_db: # formerly gsheet_feeder
-  service_account: secrets/service_account.json
-  sheet: My Google Sheet
-...
-```
-
-#### d) Redundant / Obsolete Modules
-
-With v0.13 of Auto Archiver, the following modules have been removed and their features have been built in to the generic_extractor. You should remove them from the 'steps' section of your configuration file:
-
-* `twitter_archiver` - use the `generic_extractor` for general extraction, or the `twitter_api_extractor` for API access.
-* `tiktok_archiver` - use the `generic_extractor` to extract TikTok videos.
-
-
-## 2. Auto-generate a new config, then copy over your settings.
-
-Using this method, you can have Auto Archiver auto-generate a configuration file for you, then you can copy over the desired settings from your old config file. This is probably the easiest method and quickest to setup, but it may require some trial and error as you copy over your settings.
-
-First, move your existing `orchestration.yaml` file to a different folder or rename it.
-
-Then, you can generate a `simple` or `full` config using:
-
-```{code} console
->>> # generate a simple config
->>> auto-archiver 
->>> # config will be written to orchestration.yaml
->>> 
->>> # generate a full config
->>> auto-archiver --mode=full
->>> 
-```
-
-After this, copy over any settings from your old config to the new config.

-# Authentication
-
-The Authentication framework for auto-archiver allows you to add login details for various websites in a flexible way, directly from the configuration file.
-
-There are two main use cases for authentication:
-* Some websites require some kind of authentication in order to view the content. Examples include Facebook, Telegram etc.
-* Some websites use anti-bot systems to block bot-like tools from accessing the website. Adding real login information to auto-archiver can sometimes bypass this.
-
-```{note}
-
-The Authentication framework currently only works with the following modules:
-* [Generic Extractor](../modules/autogen/extractor/generic_extractor.md) - the main module for extracting content from websites
-* [Antibot Extractor/Enricher](../modules/autogen/extractor/antibot_extractor_enricher.md)
-
-To authenticate for WACZ archiving, see the instructions on the [](../modules/autogen/enricher/wacz_extractor_enricher.md) page.
-```
-
-## The Authentication Config
-
-You can save your authentication information directly inside your orchestration config file, or as a separate file (for security/multi-deploy purposes). Whether storing your settings inside the orchestration file, or as a separate file, the configuration format is the same. Currently, auto-archiver supports the following authentication types:
-
-**Username & Password:**
-- `username`: str - the username to use for login
-- `password`: str - the password to use for login
-
-**API**
-- `api_key`: str - the API key to use for login
-- `api_secret`: str - the API secret to use for login
-  
-**Cookies**
-- `cookie`: str - a cookie string to use for login (specific to this site)
-- `cookies_from_browser`: str - load cookies from this browser, for this site only.
-- `cookies_file`: str - load cookies from this file, for this site only.
-
-```{note} 
-
-Currently, the Username & Password, and API settings only work with the Generic and Antibot Extractors. Furthermore, many sites can still detect bots and block username/password logins. Twitter/X and YouTube are two prominent ones that block username/password logins.
-
-
-One of the 'Cookies' options is recommended for the most robust archiving, but it still isn't guaranteed to work.
-```
-
-```{code} yaml
-authentication:
-   # optional file to load authentication information from, for security or multi-system deploy purposes
-   load_from_file: path/to/authentication/file.txt
-   # optional setting to load cookies from the named browser on the system, for **ALL** websites
-   cookies_from_browser: firefox
-   # optional setting to load cookies from a cookies.txt/cookies.jar file, for **ALL** websites. See note below on extracting these
-   cookies_file: path/to/cookies.jar
-
-   mysite.com:
-      username: myusername
-      password: 123
-    
-   facebook.com:
-      cookie: single_cookie
-
-   othersite.com:
-      api_key: 123
-      api_secret: 1234
-  
-```
-
-
-### Recommendations for authentication
-
-1. **Store authentication information separately:**
-The authentication part of your configuration contains sensitive information. You should make efforts not to share this with others. For extra security, use the `load_from_file` option to keep your authentication settings out of your configuration file, ideally in a different folder.
-
-2. **Don't use your own personal credentials**
-Depending on the website you are extracting information from, there may be rules (Terms of Service) that prohibit you from scraping or extracting information using a bot. If you use your own personal account, there's a possibility it might get blocked/disabled. It's recommended to set up a separate, 'throwaway' account. In that way, if it gets blocked you can easily create another one to continue your archiving.
-
-
-### How to create a cookies.jar or pass cookies directly to auto-archiver
-
-auto-archiver uses yt-dlp's powerful cookies features under the hood. For instructions on how to extract a cookies.jar (or cookies.txt) file directly from your browser, see the FAQ in the [yt-dlp documentation](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/FAQ#how-do-i-pass-cookies-to-yt-dlp)
-
-```{note} For developers:
-
-For information on how to access and use authentication settings from within your module, see the `{generic_extractor}` for an example, or view the [`auth_for_site()` function in BaseModule](../autoapi/core/base_module/index.rst)

-# Configuration
-
-The recommended way to configure auto-archiver for first-time users is to [run the Auto Archiver](setup.md#running) and have it auto-generate a default configuration for you. Then, if needed, you can edit the configuration file using one of the following methods.
-
-
-## 1. Configuration file
-
-The configuration file is typically called `orchestration.yaml` and stored in the `secrets` folder on your desktop. The configuration file contains all the settings for your entire Auto Archiver workflow in one easy-to-find place.
-
-If you want to have Auto Archiver run with the recommended 'basic' setup, 
-
-### Advanced Configuration
-
-The structure of orchestration file is split into 2 parts: `steps` (what [steps](../flow_overview.md) to use) and `configurations` (settings for individual modules).
-
-A default `orchestration.yaml` will be created for you the first time you run auto-archiver (without any arguments). Here's what it looks like:
-
-<details>
-<summary>View exampleorchestration.yaml</summary>
-
-```{literalinclude} ../example.orchestration.yaml
-   :language: yaml
-   :caption: orchestration.yaml
-```
-
-</details>
-
-## 2. Command Line configuration
-
-You can run auto-archiver directly from the command line, without the need for a configuration file, command line arguments are parsed using the format `module_name.config_value`. For example, a config value of `api_key` in the `instagram_extractor` module would be passed on the command line with the flag `--instagram_extractor.api_key=API_KEY`.
-
-The command line arguments are useful for testing or editing config values and enabling/disabling modules on the fly. When you are happy with your settings, you can store them back in your configuration file by passing the `-s/--store` flag on the command line.
-
-```bash
-auto-archiver --instagram_extractor.api_key=123 --other_module.setting --store
-# will store the new settings into the configuration file (default: orchestration.yaml)
-```
-
-```{note} Arguments passed on the command line override those saved in your settings file. Save them to your config file using the -s or --store flag
-```
-
-## Seeing all Configuration Options
-
-View the configurable settings for the core modules on the individual doc pages for each [](../core_modules.md).
-You can also view all settings available for the modules you have on your system using the `--help` flag in auto-archiver.
-
-```{code-block} console
-:caption: Example output when using the --help flag with auto-archiver
-$ auto-archiver --help

-Positional Arguments:
-  urls                  URL(s) to archive, either a single URL or a list of urls, should not come from config.yaml
-
-Options:
-  --help, -h            show a full help message and exit
-  --version             show program's version number and exit
-  --config CONFIG_FILE  the filename of the YAML configuration file (defaults to 'config.yaml')

-  --authentication AUTHENTICATION
-                        A dictionary of sites and their authentication methods (token, username etc.) that extractors can use to log into a website. If passing this on the command line, use a JSON string. You may
-                        also pass a path to a valid JSON/YAML file which will be parsed.
-  --logging.level {INFO,DEBUG,ERROR,WARNING}
-                        the logging level to use
-  --logging.file LOGGING.FILE
-                        the logging file to write to
-  --logging.rotation LOGGING.ROTATION
-                        the logging rotation to use

-# Frequently Asked Questions
-
-
-### Q: What websites does the Auto Archiver support?
-**A:** The Auto Archiver works for a large variety of sites. Firstly, the Auto Archiver can download
-and archive any video website supported by YT-DLP, a powerful video-downloading tool ([full list of of
-sites here](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/blob/master/supportedsites.md)). Aside from these sites,
-there are various different 'Extractors' for specific websites. See the full list of extractors that 
-are available on the [extractors](../modules/extractor.md) page. Some sites supported include:
-
-* Twitter
-* Instagram
-* Telegram
-* Tiktok
-* Bluesky
-
-```{note} What websites the Auto Archiver can archie depends on what extractors you have enabled in
-your configuration. See [configuration](./configurations.md) for more info.
-```
-
-### Q: Does the Auto Archiver only work for social media posts ?
-**A:** No, the Auto Archiver can archive any web page on the internet, not just social media posts.
-However, for social media posts Auto Archiver can extract more relevant/useful information (such as 
-post comments, likes, author etc.) which may not be available for a generic website. If you are looking
-to more generally archive webpages, then you should make sure to enable the [](../modules/autogen/extractor/wacz_extractor_enricher.md)
-and the [](../modules/autogen/extractor/wayback_extractor_enricher.md).
-
-### Q: What kind of data is stored for each webpage that's archived?
-**A:** This depends on the website archived, but more generally, for social media posts any videos and photos in
-the post will be archived. For video sites, the video will be downloaded separately. For most of these sites, additional
-metadata such as published date, uploader/author and ratings/comments will also be saved. Additionally, further data can be
-saved depending on the enrichers that you have enabled. Some other types of data saved are timestamps if you have the 
-[](../modules/autogen/enricher/timestamping_enricher.md) or [](../modules/autogen/enricher/opentimestamps_enricher.md) enabled,
-screenshots of the web page with the [](../modules/autogen/enricher/screenshot_enricher.md), and for videos, thumbnails of the
-video with the [](../modules/autogen/enricher/thumbnail_enricher.md). You can also store things like hashes (SHA256, or pdq hashes)
-with the various hash enrichers.
-
-### Q: Where is my data stored?
-**A:** With the default configuration, data is stored on your local computer in the `local_storage` folder. You can adjust these settings by
-changing the [storage modules](../modules/storage.md) you have enabled. For example, you could choose to store your data in an S3 bucket or 
-on Google Drive. 
-
-```{note}
-You can choose to store your data in multiple places, for example your local drive **and** an S3 bucket for redundancy.
-```
-
-### Q: What should I do is something doesn't work?
-**A:** First, read through the log files to see if you can find a specific reason why something isn't working. Learn more about logging
-and how to enable debug logging in the [Logging Howto](../how_to/logging.md).
-
-If you cannot find an answer in the logs, then try searching this documentation or existing / closed issues on the [Github Issue Tracker](https://github.com/bellingcat/auto-archiver/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20). If you still cannot find an answer, then consider opening an issue on the Github Issue Tracker or asking in the Bellingcat Discord
-'Auto Archiver' group.
-
-#### Common reasons why an archiving might not work:
-
-* The website may have temporarily adjusted its settings - sometimes sites like Telegram or Twitter adjust their scraping protection settings. Often,
-waiting a day or two and then trying again can work.
-* The site requires you to be logged in - you could try using cookies or authentication to bypass any blocks. See [](../installation/authentication.md) for more information.
-* The website you're trying to archive has changed its settings/structure. Make sure you're using the latest version of Auto Archiver and try again.

-# Installation
-
-```{toctree}
-:maxdepth: 1
-
-upgrading.md
-```
-
-There are 3 main ways to use the auto-archiver. We recommend the 'docker' method for most uses. This installs all the requirements in one command.
-
-1. Easiest (recommended): [via docker](#installing-with-docker)
-2. Local Install: [using pip](#installing-locally-with-pip)
-3. Developer Install: [see the developer guidelines](../development/developer_guidelines)
-
-## 1. Installing with Docker
-
-[![dockeri.co](https://dockerico.blankenship.io/image/bellingcat/auto-archiver)](https://hub.docker.com/r/bellingcat/auto-archiver)
-
-Docker works like a virtual machine running inside your computer, making installation simple. You'll need to first set up Docker, and then download the Auto Archiver 'image':
-
-
-**a) Download and install docker**
-
-Go to the [Docker website](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and download right version for your operating system. 
-
-**b) Pull the Auto Archiver docker image**
-
-Open your command line terminal, and copy-paste / type:
-
-```bash
-docker pull bellingcat/auto-archiver
-```
-
-This will download the docker image, which may take a while.
-
-That's it, all done! You're now ready to set up [your configuration file](configurations.md). Or, if you want to use the recommended defaults, then you can [run Auto Archiver immediately](setup.md#running-a-docker-install).
-
-------------
-
-## 2. Installing Locally with Pip
-
-1. Make sure you have python 3.10 or higher installed
-2. Install the package with your preferred package manager: `pip/pipenv/conda install auto-archiver` or `poetry add auto-archiver`
-3. Test it's installed with `auto-archiver --help`
-4. Install other local dependency requirements (for example `ffmpeg`, `firefox`)
-
-After this, you're ready to set up your [your configuration file](configurations.md), or if you want to use the recommended defaults, then you can [run Auto Archiver immediately](setup.md#running-a-local-install).
-
-### Installing Local Requirements
-
-If using the local installation method, you will also need to install the following dependencies locally:
-
-1.[ffmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/) - for handling of downloaded videos
-<!-- 2. [firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) and [geckodriver](https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases) on a path folder like `/usr/local/bin` - for taking webpage screenshots with the screenshot enricher -->
-3. (optional) [fonts-noto](https://fonts.google.com/noto) to deal with multiple unicode characters during selenium screenshots: `sudo apt install fonts-noto -y`.
-4. [Browsertrix Crawler docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/webrecorder/browsertrix-crawler) for the WACZ enricher/archiver
-
-
-### Custom installation scripts
-- [Ubuntu 24 Server Install by @djhmateer](example_scripts/ubuntu_24_server_install.md) - a WYSIWYG example script from a user who set up the Auto Archiver on a fresh Ubuntu 24 server.

-# Requirements
-
-Using the Auto Archiver is very simple, but ideally you have some familiarity with using the command line to run programs. ([Command line crash course](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn_web_development/Getting_started/Environment_setup/Command_line)).
-
-### System Requirements
-
-* Auto Archiver works on any Windows, macOS and Linux computer
-* If you're using the **local install** method, then you should make sure to have python3.10+ installed
-
-### Storage Requirements
-
-By default, Auto Archiver uses your local computer storage for any downloaded media (videos, images etc.). If you're downloading large files, this may take up a lot of your local computer's space (more than 5GB of space).
-
-If your storage space is limited, then you may want to set up an [alternative storage method](../modules/storage.md) for your media.

-:hidden:
-
-installation.md
-configurations.md
-config_editor.md
-authentication.md
-requirements.md
-faq.md
-config_cheatsheet.md
-```
-
-## Getting Started
-
-To get started with Auto Archiver, there are 3 main steps you need to complete.
-
-1. [Install Auto Archiver](installation.md)
-2. [Setup up your configuration](configurations.md) (if you are ok with the default settings, you can skip this step)
-3. Run the archiving process<a id="running"></a>
-
-The way you run the Auto Archiver depends on how you installed it (docker install or local install)
-
-### Running a Docker Install
-
-If you installed Auto Archiver using docker, open up your terminal, and copy-paste / type the following command:
-
-```bash
-docker run -it --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver -- "https://example.com/1/"
-```
-
-breaking this command down:
-   1. `docker run` tells docker to start a new container (an instance of the image)
-   2. `-it` tells docker to run in 'interactive mode' so that we get nice colour logs
-   3. `--rm` makes sure this container is removed after execution (less garbage locally)
-   4. `-v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets` - your secrets folder with settings
-      1. `-v` is a volume flag which means a folder that you have on your computer will be connected to a folder inside the docker container
-      2. `$PWD/secrets` points to a `secrets/` folder in your current working directory (where your console points to), we use this folder as a best practice to hold all the secrets/tokens/passwords/... you use
-      3. `/app/secrets` points to the path the docker container where this image can be found
-   5.  `-v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive` - (optional) if you use local_storage
-       1.  `-v` same as above, this is a volume instruction
-       2.  `$PWD/local_archive` is a folder `local_archive/` in case you want to archive locally and have the files accessible outside docker
-       3.  `/app/local_archive` is a folder inside docker that you can reference in your orchestration.yml file 
-   6. ` -- "https://example.com/1/"` this will pass the URL to archive to the default [command line feeder](../modules/autogen/feeder/cli_feeder.md)
-
-### Example invocations
-
-The invocations below will run the auto-archiver Docker image using a configuration file that you have specified
-
-```bash
-# Have auto-archiver run with the default settings, generating a settings file in ./secrets/orchestration.yaml
-docker run -it --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver
-
-# uses the same configuration, but with the `gsheet_feeder`, a header on row 2 and with some different column names
-# Note this expects you to have followed the [Google Sheets setup](how_to/google_sheets.md) and added your service_account.json to the `secrets/` folder
-# notice that columns is a dictionary so you need to pass it as JSON and it will override only the values provided
-docker run -it --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver --feeders=gsheet_feeder --gsheet_feeder.sheet="use it on another sheets doc" --gsheet_feeder.header=2 --gsheet_feeder.columns='{"url": "link"}'
-# Runs auto-archiver for the first time, but in 'full' mode, enabling all modules to get a full settings file
-docker run -it --rm -v $PWD/secrets:/app/secrets -v $PWD/local_archive:/app/local_archive bellingcat/auto-archiver --mode full
-```
-
-------------
-
-### Running a Local Install
-
-### Example invocations
-
-Once all your [local requirements](#installing-local-requirements) are correctly installed, the
-
-```bash
-# all the configurations come from ./secrets/orchestration.yaml
-auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml
-# uses the same configurations but for another google docs sheet 
-# with a header on row 2 and with some different column names
-# notice that columns is a dictionary so you need to pass it as JSON and it will override only the values provided
-auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml --gsheet_feeder.sheet="use it on another sheets doc" --gsheet_feeder.header=2 --gsheet_feeder.columns='{"url": "link"}'
-# all the configurations come from orchestration.yaml and specifies that s3 files should be private
-auto-archiver --config secrets/orchestration.yaml --s3_storage.private=1
