Automatic fetch link content

print("title:", preview.title)
print("description:", preview.description)
print("image:", preview.image)
print("force_title:", preview.force_title)

Use lxml as XML parser:
Very recommended for better performance
from linkpreview import link_preview
preview = link_preview("http://github.com/", parser="lxml")
print("title:", preview.title)
print("description:", preview.description)
print("image:", preview.image)
print("force_title:", preview.force_title)
print("absolute_image:", preview.absolute_image)
