Before I was using GNU Wget (let’s call it wget) to download a website (mirroring) because in the past I have limited internet connection (very expensive, because it use time based and slow). Wget is good for those who loves using linux and console (it available in windows as well).

Httrack is windows based free software that using capabilities like those in wget. It can mirror a website, download all related pages. I used this software especially for downloading documentation sites.

Here is my Rules to download a codex.wordpress.com (just for Developer Documentation and its related pages) :

+*.png +*.gif +*.jpg +*.css +*.js -ad.doubleclick.net/* -mime:application/foobar
-http://codex.wordpress.org/Mailing_Lists
-http://codex.wordpress.org/IRC
-http://wordpress.org/support

-http://codex.wordpress.org/Current_events
-http://codex.wordpress.org/Special:Recentchanges
-http://codex.wordpress.org/Special:Randompage
-http://codex.wordpress.org/Development_Team

In there I just need the Function References but for some reason I don’t want to download “unused” pages ..which I won’t read like (http://codex.wordpress.org/Current_events,http://codex.wordpress.org/Special:Recentchanges, etc). You can see there that I can put regular expression wildcard into the rules. I also put the limit to 3 depths parsing only so that I dont need to download large amount of pages.

Rules for Downloading codex.wordpress.com

The nice part, is you can update the download without downloading all one by one in the future. Just don’t delete the files generated by Httrack.

Here is my complete commands that generate by Httrack.

winhttrack -qwr3%e0C2%Ps0u1%s%uN0%I0p3DaK0H0%kf2A25000%f#f -F “Mozilla/4.5 (compatible; HTTrack 3.0x; Windows 98)” -%F “” -%l “en, en, *” http://codex.wordpress.org/Developer_Documentation -O1 “C:\Downloads\codex-wordpress\codex wordpress” +*.png +*.gif +*.jpg +*.css +*.js -ad.doubleclick.net/* -mime:application/foobar -http://codex.wordpress.org/Mailing_Lists -http://codex.wordpress.org/IRC -http://wordpress.org/support -http://codex.wordpress.org/Contributing_to_WordPress -http://codex.wordpress.org/Automated_Testing -*action=* -http://codex.wordpress.org/Codex:Community_Portal -*Help:* -http://codex.wordpress.org/Current_events -http://codex.wordpress.org/Special:Recentchanges -http://codex.wordpress.org/Special:Randompage -http://codex.wordpress.org/Development_Team

ps: you can use httrack in console so you can create an scheduler to download / update / mirroring websites frequently.

I think it is fun to have a syntax like that, instead of using XML. I hate XML you know ….

today i had chat with my patner. She has bad internet connection so the IM turn on and off. sometimes i have to write and copy paste the previous text again and again.

Until i found this nice web, everything going to be fun. I can explain the code one by one and there are code formatting with color / syntax highlighting. How it work .. just type your code in there and choose the syntax. It will format your syntax and you can send to your patner the url.

here is the example: http://pastebin.com/f6e23351

have fun !

and happy valentine day !
