Is there a nice way to add a URL from the Wayback machine? I don't want to add HTML documents but rather PDFs etc. The problem is that web.archive.org doesn't send a Content-Length header:

Therefore, I'd have to pass the --relaxed flag when calling addurl. Is there maybe a way to tell git-annex to download the file before checking its size? Or is there a way to use the Wayback machine via the S3 special remote?

Eventually, I'd like to have a script that automatically saves all web content in my repo into the Wayback machine and adds the new URLs for redundancy.

This is what I've got so far:

#! /usr/bin/env python3

from subprocess import check_output, Popen, PIPE
import json
from urllib import request
from sys import stdout

output = check_output(['git-annex', 'find', '--in', 'web', '--json'])
files = [json.loads(line)['file'] for line in output.split(b'\n')[:-1]]
p = Popen(['git-annex', 'whereis', '--batch', '--json'], stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE)
p.stdin.writelines(str.encode(f + '\n') for f in files)
out, err = p.communicate()
urls = []
for line in out.split(b'\n')[:-1]:
    for loc in json.loads(line)['untrusted']:
        if loc['uuid'] == '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001':
            url = loc['urls'][0]
            import urllib.request
            print('GET https://web.archive.org/save/' + url)
            r = request.urlopen('https://web.archive.org/save/' + url)
            assert(r.getcode() == 200)
            urls.append(r.geturl())
            break
assert(len(files) == len(urls))
p = Popen(['git-annex', 'addurl', '--batch', '--with-files', '--relaxed'], stdin=PIPE, stdout=stdout)
p.stdin.writelines(str.encode(f + ' ' + u) for f, u in zip(urls, files))
p.communicate()
