nathancolgate / static_copy.sh

Created April 21, 2015 17:45

The modern Web is a dynamic place. However, sometimes it's necessary (or desirable) to remove the dynamic functionality of a website, while preserving its static content.

wget -P /path/to/destination/directory/ -mpck --user-agent="" -e robots=off --wait 1 -E https://www.example.com/

nathancolgate / svg_to_png.rb

Created November 8, 2013 16:21

Converting SVG content from Highcharts into PNGs to be embedded into a PDF. Eventually I settled on using prawn-svg (thanks, Matt!). But I thought this solution was interesting enough to retain.

	@pngs = {}
	timestamp = Time.now.to_i
	Dir.mkdir("#{Rails.root}/tmp/rmagick") unless File.exists?("#{Rails.root}/tmp/rmagick")
	Dir.mkdir("#{Rails.root}/tmp/rmagick/reports") unless File.exists?("#{Rails.root}/tmp/rmagick/reports")
	Dir.mkdir("#{Rails.root}/tmp/rmagick/reports/#{timestamp}") unless File.exists?("#{Rails.root}/tmp/rmagick/reports/#{timestamp}")
	params[:svgs].each do \|key,svg\|
	string = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>'+URI.unescape(svg)
	string.gsub!("'lucida grande', 'lucida sans unicode', verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif",'') # classes_observed_by_grade_level
	string.gsub!(/clip-path="url$#highcharts-[0-9]*$"/,'clip-path="none"') # classes_observed_by_grade_level
	string.gsub!(' opacity="1"','') # classes_observed_by_grade_level
