#! /usr/bin/env python """Web tree checker. This utility is handy to check a subweb of the world-wide web for errors. A subweb is specified by giving one or more ``root URLs''; a page belongs to the subweb if one of the root URLs is an initial prefix of it. File URL extension: In order to easy the checking of subwebs via the local file system, the interpretation of ``file:'' URLs is extended to mimic the behavior of your average HTTP daemon: if a directory pathname is given, the file index.html in that directory is returned if it exists, otherwise a directory listing is returned. Now, you can point webchecker to the document tree in the local file system of your HTTP daemon, and have most of it checked. In fact the default works this way if your local web tree is located at /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdpcs (the default for the NCSA HTTP daemon and probably others). Reports printed: When done, it reports links to pages outside the web (unless -q is specified), and pages with bad links within the subweb. When interrupted, it print those same reports for the pages that it has checked already. In verbose mode, additional messages are printed during the information gathering phase. By default, it prints a summary of its work status every 50 URLs (adjustable with the -r option), and it reports errors as they are encountered. Use the -q option to disable this output. Checkpoint feature: Whether interrupted or not, it dumps its state (a Python pickle) to a checkpoint file and the -R option allows it to restart from the checkpoint (assuming that the pages on the subweb that were already processed haven't changed). Even when it has run till completion, -R can still be useful -- it will print the reports again, and -Rq prints the errors only. In this case, the checkpoint file is not written again. The checkpoint file can be set with the -d option. The checkpoint file is written as a Python pickle. Remember that Python's pickle module is currently quite slow. Give it the time it needs to load and save the checkpoint file. When interrupted while writing the checkpoint file, the old checkpoint file is not overwritten, but all work done in the current run is lost. Miscellaneous: - Webchecker honors the "robots.txt" convention. Thanks to Skip Montanaro for his robotparser.py module (included in this directory)! The agent name is hardwired to "webchecker". URLs that are disallowed by the robots.txt file are reported as external URLs. - Because the HTML parser is a bit slow, very large HTML files are skipped. The size limit can be set with the -m option. - Before fetching a page, it guesses its type based on its extension. If it is a known extension and the type is not text/http, the page is not fetched. This is a huge optimization but occasionally it means links can be missed. The mimetypes.py module (also in this directory) has a built-in table mapping most currently known suffixes, and in addition attempts to read the mime.types configuration files in the default locations of Netscape and the NCSA HTTP daemon. - It only follows links indicated by tags. It doesn't follow links in
or or whatever other tags might contain hyperlinks. It does honor the tag. - It could be argued that it should also check external links for validity. This is true, but is is more error-prone. I think I will make this an option in the future. Usage: webchecker.py [option] ... [rooturl] ... Options: -R -- restart from checkpoint file -d file -- checkpoint filename (default %(DUMPFILE)s) -m bytes -- skip HTML pages larger than this size (default %(MAXPAGE)d) -q -- quiet operation (also suppresses external links report) -r number -- number of links processed per round (default %(ROUNDSIZE)d) -v -- verbose operation; repeating -v will increase verbosity Arguments: rooturl -- URL to start checking (default %(DEFROOT)s) """ __version__ = "0.1" import sys import os from types import * import string import StringIO import getopt import pickle import urllib import urlparse import htmllib import formatter import mimetypes import robotparser #
