The files are grouped and split up into 3 GitHub repositories (linked below) and corresponding deploys.
Internet Archive is using docker OCI containers to serve the repo files as static files,
with a lightly customized nginx httpd server. Each deployed container is running on a
nomad cluster.
Each git push to this repo will cause a GitHub Actions CI/CD
pipeline to run.
Presently, it does a [build] and [deploy] pair of jobs.
(See CI/CD GitHub Action for more info.)
The main ringleader from an archive.org/details/ page for a s/w emulation "item" will load loader.js.
There is a parallel
browserfs.min.js
file that gets loaded alongside loader.js.
It is used for node backend-like FileSystem operations like reading and writing files,
in the context of the browser.
Tracey thinks this came from here:
- https://www.npmjs.com/package/browserfs
and notes the
browserfs.min.js*file pair have a fix from db48x after the v1.4.3. Likely worth looking into the near future if/as needed. browserFS can use "ES Modules" for JS import/loading via something like:
import BrowserFS from 'https://esm.sh/browserfs'Each repo has the same layout, with all files starting at the top dir:
- README.md - this file
- default.conf - nginx configuration
- Dockerfile - container build instructions
- .dockerignore - files to skip copying into the deployed container
- .gitignore - any files to ignore and not checkin
- .github/workflows/cicd.yml - GitHub Actions setup We aim to keep all 3 repos with the same 6 files.
the nginx has a few critical changes for the handling of .gz files -- since nginx can also
"gzip on the fly" text files as well. Thus, the browser needs to know if the file is being
dynamically turned to a .gz file by nginx -- or if the file is being served as an already
compressed .gz as a static file.
