Wiki Page URL

https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Configuration#public_index--public_snapshots--public_add_view

Suggested Edit

The listed default value is False, but unless I explicitly set that value in the config or via the CLI, the snapshopts and index are accessible without login.
Therefore, the actual default is effectively True.

This may also be a bug in the application instead, if False is supposed to be the default as documented.

Thanks for the the heads up, I fixed the defaults shown in the docs:

https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/wiki/Configuration#public_index--public_snapshots--public_add_view

# these are the defaults that ship with ArchiveBox
'PUBLIC_INDEX':              {'type': bool,  'default': True},
'PUBLIC_SNAPSHOTS':          {'type': bool,  'default': True},
'PUBLIC_ADD_VIEW':           {'type': bool,  'default': False},
