R - download website including all .css, .js, pictures etc












1















Say i want to download the page of r-Bloggers.com.
If i press Ctrl+S in Chrome, an html file will be downloaded plus a Folder with 58 files (.css, .js, Pictures, etc.)



I would like to do the same from R.



I found an answer and wrapped it into system(): system("wget --page-requisites https://www.r-bloggers.com/")



does not give me the 58+1 files.



Same for:



download.file(url = "https://www.r-bloggers.com/", 
destfile = "try", mode = "wget", extra = "--page-requisites")
download.file(url = "https://www.r-bloggers.com/",
destfile = "try.html", mode = "wget", extra = "--page-requisites")

          That's because by default Wget will only attempt to download items from the same domain. However, this website loads everything from different hosts.



          You need to use the --span-hosts flag to allow Wget to access files from different hosts
