Sometimes you want to create an offline copy of a site that you can take and view even without internet access. Using wget
you can make such copy easily:
wget --mirror --convert-links --adjust-extension --page-requisites
--no-parent http://example.org
Explanation of the various flags:
--mirror
– Makes (among other things) the download recursive.--convert-links
– convert all the links (also to stuff like CSS stylesheets) to relative, so it will be suitable for offline viewing.--adjust-extension
– Adds suitable extensions to filenames (html
orcss
) depending on their content-type.--page-requisites
– Download things like CSS style-sheets and images required to properly display the page offline.--no-parent
– When recursing do not ascend to the parent directory. It useful for restricting the download to only a portion of the site.
Alternatively, the command above may be shortened:
wget -mkEpnp http://example.org
Note: that the last p
is part of np
(--no-parent
) and hence you see p
twice in the flags.
