Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

LinkChecker-GUI

Build Status GPL-3

This is the GUI client for LinkChecker.

Installation

Python 3.9 or later is needed. Using pip to install LinkChecker-GUI:

pip3 install linkchecker-gui

You may wish to first install the dependencies from you distribution e.g.:

apt install linkchecker python3-pyqt6.qsci python3-pyqt6.qthelp

The version in the pip repository may be old, to install the latest code first install qhelpgenerator and rcc e.g.

apt install qt6-documentation-tools qt6-base-dev-tools

Then:

pip3 install https://github.com/linkchecker/linkchecker-gui/archive/master.tar.gz

Usage

linkchecker-gui

A freedesktop.org desktop entry is installed for compatible environments.

On Debian/Ubuntu if LinkChecker-GUI fails to start with an error:

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.

this can be resolved by installing libxcb-cursor0:

apt install libxcb-cursor0

Recursion depth and verbose output (whether every URL checked is shown or just those with errors) are configured in Edit/Options. These settings are specific to LinkChecker-GUI and independent of LinkChecker. More advanced settings are shared with the default LinkChecker linkcheckerrc.

Development

Development is managed on GitHub.
