Hi, I want to share with you the way I figured out to easily archive reddit content with ArchiveTeam Warrior on NixOS. You can set it up fully in nix config!

Okay, first of all, you'll need to enable docker or podman. I chose podman here:

virtualisation.podman = {
  enable = true;
  dockerCompat = true;

  defaultNetwork.settings.dns_enabled = true;
};

After that, all you have to do is run the docker image! Here's how I do it with podman:

virtualisation.oci-containers.backend = "podman";
virtualisation.oci-containers.containers = {
  archive-team-warrior = {
    image = "atdr.meo.ws/archiveteam/reddit-grab";
    autoStart = true;
    cmd = ["YOUR_USERNAME_HERE_FOR_LEADERBOARD"];
    extraOptions = ["--network=host"];
  };
};

This doesn't start the full ArchiveTeam Warrior, but only the reddit grabber. That means you get no website to manage it at port 8001, and it just runs in the background, not disturbing you. I think it's worth it to add these 14 LOC to your system configuration, to help archive reddit.

The 23.05 release was made possible due to the efforts of 1867 contributors, who authored 36566 commits since the previous release. Our thanks go the contributors who also take care of the continued stability and security of our stable release.

NixOS is already known as the most up to date distribution while also being the distribution with the most packages. This release saw 16240 new packages and 13524 updated packages in Nixpkgs. We also removed 13466 packages in an effort to keep the package set maintainable and secure.
