the archive of instaud.io

Status of the project

This is going to be on hold for a WHILE because i have to contact the internet archive and provide them with the IP addresses of the server or servers scraping the entire 20 thousand URLs

You can check the issues tab for the most up to date status on things

How am i going to do this

Simple, python, docker, a good internet connection, some wayback machine API, and more python

There are gonna be two parts to this,

• Scraping and sorting the data
• Hosting the data & music (or providing archive.org links to the music) on a static online database

Why am i doing this

Read this twitter post I got bored, wanted to program/do something, this is what i ended up working on, apperently instaud.io is very important to the undertale community for one reason or another, so i figured why not

When can i expect this to come out?

Not sure yet

The easy explination of why this is going to take a while

i have to take 20 thousand puzzle peices with no clear accociation with eachother and complete it

The more techincal end of why this is going to take a while

I have to parse the html of over 10 THOUSAND urls and accociate those with links to archived S3 bucket mp3s, and present it all in a clean nice website thats fully searchable and filterable

but there is a catch

instaud.io decided, it would be REALLY SMART, to use the same ID for multiple different songs! that or archive.org's archiveing tools failed badly for some reason
