Web Archives for Historical Research Collections

• #climatemarch
• #elxn42
• #marchforscience
• #panamanpapers
• #womensmarch

About data:

• Each collection's directory will have a warcs directory containing all of it's ARCs/WARCs
• Each collection's directory will have a derivatives directory containing the scholarly derivatives created on cloud.archivesunleashed.org
  • More info about those files can be found here.
• See this for a look at the directory structure.

Apache Spark + aut

• To run Apache Spark shell with aut on each machine, run the following command: ~/spark/bin/spark-shell --packages "io.archivesunleashed:aut:0.17.0"

• In the course of your project, you might need to use additional flags. These should work well on each machine: ~/spark/bin/spark-shell --packages "io.archivesunleashed:aut:0.17.0" --master local[*] --driver-memory 12G --conf spark.network.timeout=100000000 --conf spark.executor.heartbeatInterval=6000s

Accessing the machines:

• The permissions on the key should be 600. You can do this with the following command on your own laptop before shelling in: chmod 600 /path/to/archives-hackathon.key

• You can shell in the machines with the following command: ssh -i /path/to/archives-hackathon.key [email protected]

• I will provide the key, and IP address to each machine after teams are formed on the first day of the datathon.
