Wayback Machine
This project is an envelope for simple fetching of historical versions of page from archive.org API.
The page can be used for subsequent webscraping
Setup and usage
Install from pip with
pip install waybackmachine
Simple usage of the WaybackMachine class is as
from waybackmachine import WaybackMachine
url = "https://www.folkhalsomyndigheten.se/smittskydd-beredskap/utbrott/aktuella-utbrott/covid-19/bekraftade-fall-i-sverige/"
for response in WaybackMachine(url):
# process response
pass
In the code the requests are being done from the newest (to the url itself) and then back in history to older and older versions saved on archive.
Parameterization will be later broaden to be more general. Currently the project is used for fetching COVID-19 data.
pip install --upgrade waybackmachine
Parametrization
date
By default the start date is today. End date is currently set to 2020-03-01.

from waybackmachine import WaybackMachine
url = "https://www.folkhalsomyndigheten.se/smittskydd-beredskap/utbrott/aktuella-utbrott/covid-19/bekraftade-fall-i-sverige/"
for response in WaybackMachine(url, "2020-04-01"): # start from 1st April 2020 and go back
