Paywall

Configuring paywall access

Read this part of the documentation to understand the configuration files, which are located under vendor/j0k3r/graby-site-config/. For most of the websites, this file is already configured: the following instructions are only for the websites that are not configured yet.

Each parsing configuration file needs to be improved by adding requires_login, login_uri, login_username_field, login_password_field and not_logged_in_xpath.

Be careful, the login form must be in the page content when wallabag loads it. It’s impossible for wallabag to be authenticated on a website where the login form is loaded after the page (by ajax for example).

login_uri is the action URL of the form (action attribute in the form). login_username_field is the name attribute of the login field. login_password_field is the name attribute of the password field.

For example:

title://div[@id="titrage-contenu"]/h1[@class="title"]
body: //div[@class="contenu-html"]/div[@class="page-pane"]

requires_login: yes

login_uri: http://www.arretsurimages.net/forum/login.php
login_username_field: username
login_password_field: password

not_logged_in_xpath: //body[@class="not-logged-in"]

To add additional parameters to the login query, specify them using the following format:

login_extra_fields: myParameter=value
