pyurlcheck 0.1.2

Search docs and validate URLs found are working properly.

PYURLCHECK

Project is currently a WIP.

pyurlcheck can be used to scan through all of a projects documents and validate any public facing URLs are still reachable.

Why??

It's apparent when navigating code documentation online that keeping up with URLs in documentation isn't always done properly. Running into constant 404 Not Found errors is frustrating for users that are trying to learn how to use a product or tool.

Examples

Running the tool against a single file.

▶ python cli.py examples/example1.md                          
examples/example1.md:8  URL Issue: https://www.ansible.com/jeff

Running the tool against a directory. All files in the directory will be executed.

▶ python cli.py examples/           
examples/example2.md:6  URL Issue: https://www.ansible.com/jeff
examples/example1.md:8  URL Issue: https://www.ansible.com/fake

Alternatively,

you can replace python cli.py with pyurlcheck on the command line.

▶ pyurlcheck pyurlcheck/examples/
pyurlcheck/examples/example3.txt:4      URL Issue: https://www.ansible.com/jeff
pyurlcheck/examples/example2.md:7       URL Issue: https://www.ansible.com/jeff
pyurlcheck/examples/example3.md:3       URL Issue: https://www.ansible.com/jeff
pyurlcheck/examples/example4.rst:22     URL Issue: http://google.com/france
pyurlcheck/examples/example4.rst:23     URL Issue: http://google.com/japan
pyurlcheck/examples/example1.md:9       URL Issue: https://www.ansible.com/jeff

File extensions are currently not checked; therefore all files in a directory that is passed in will be validated.

Installation

pip install pyurlcheck
