Creates a snapshot of a url with HTML suffix removed in favour of directories
npm install @remy/snapLike wget -r but specifically designed to support "pretty" URLs. With wget, a URL pointing to /foo would result in /foo.html, but this means the URL has now changed.
With snap, it will create the directory /foo and save the file to /foo/index.html so that the URL /foo still works.
Via npm:
```
npm install @remy/snap
``
$ snap
$ snap
$ snap
This is how I'm using snap in an Express web site to generate a static copy of the site before deploying to Amazon S3.
The scripts section of my package.json:
``
{
"scripts": {
"start": "node .",
"prebuild": "NODE_ENV=production PORT=7331 node . & echo $! > .pid; sleep 1",
"build": "snap http://localhost:7331 -o www; kill $(cat .pid); rm .pid"
},
"devDependencies": {
"@remy/snap": "^1.0.1"
}
}
- If the output directory already exists, it will be removed first by snapsnap`, if further customisation is needed, please send a PR or look at using simplecrawler
