WaybackProxy

WaybackProxy is a HTTP proxy that sends all requests through the Internet Archive Wayback Machine and OoCities, returning the original antique-browser-friendly markup.

1999 Google viewed on Internet Explorer 4.0 on Windows 95

Setup

  1. Edit settings.py to your liking
  2. Start waybackproxy.py
  3. Set your antique browser to use a HTTP proxy at the IP and port WaybackProxy is listening on
  4. Try it out! You can edit most settings that are in settings.py by browsing to http://web.archive.org while on the proxy, although you must edit settings.py to make them permanent.
  5. Press Ctrl+C to stop

Limitations

  • The Wayback Machine itself. For one, sometimes archived pages lack random images for no reason at all.
  • 302 redirects are handled using a meta refresh hack, as Wayback sends them as regular pages.
  • WaybackProxy is not an all-around proxy. The POST and CONNECT methods are not implemented.
