I tried ArchiveBox and Shiori, but neither stuck for some reason. The latter is a bit more lightweight, it can save the entire page as well as a Readability-based conversion: https://github.com/go-shiori/shiori/

I use https://github.com/go-shiori/shiori. It has a reader and archive mode. Go and uses a SQLite database, so it also has search. I've had it running for a few years, but don't use it much, so can't really speak to how well searching performs.
