Parses text files for HTTP URLs and checks if they are still valid. Install with

```

pip install deadlink

```

and use as

```sh

deadlink check README.md   # or multiple files/directories

# or deadlink c README.md

```

To explicitly allow or ignore certain URLs, use

```

deadlink check README.md -a http: -i stackoverflow.com github

```

This only considers URLs containing `http:` and _not_ containing `stackoverflow.com` or

`github`. You can also place allow and ignore lists in the config file

`~/.config/deadlink/config.toml`, e.g.,

```toml

allow_urls = [

  "https:"

]

ignore_urls = [

  "stackoverflow.com",

  "math.stackexchange.com",

  "discord.gg",

  "doi.org"

]

igonore_files = [

  ".svg"

]

```

See

```

deadlink check -h

```

for all options.

Use

```sh

deadlink replace-redirects paths-or-files

# or deadlink rr paths-or-files

```

to replace redirects in the given files. The same filters as for `deadlink check` apply.
