An attempt to write a fast link checker under 150 LOC.

~~~

$ wc -l lib.bash url* badlinks

  21 lib.bash

  28 urlcheck

  19 urlextract.rb

  56 urlextract-recursive

  25 badlinks

 149 total

~~~

Actuall LOC:

~~~

$ scc | grep ^[BR] | awk '{s+=$6} END {print s}'

119

~~~

## Usage

Run `bundle` to install the required gems. Then

    $ ./badlinks -e -l 3 http://example.com/foo/bar/

`-e` means to check external links (whose origin != `example.com`),

`-l` sets max recursion level.

A timeout for each connection is 3 seconds, use `-t sec` to change.

To obtain a full list of URLs without checks:

    $ LEVEL=3 ./urlextract-recursive http://example.com/foo/bar

Then process it with awk+urlcheck (this is what *badlinks* wrapper

does).
