> Crawls a given site and checks for W3C validity.

## Installation

```BASH

$ npm install -g w3c-validator-cli

```

## Usage

```BASH

$ w3c-validator [options] 

```

The crawler will fetch all sites matching folder URLs and certain file extensions.

**Tip**: Omit the URL protocol, the crawler will detect the right one.

**Important**: Executing the w3c-validator with sites using HTML `base`-tag along with links *without* leading slashes will probably not work.

## Options

```BASH

$ w3c-validator --help

  Usage: w3c-validator [options] 

  Options:

    -h, --help      output usage information

    -V, --version   output the version number

    -l, --log       log errors in a text file

    -q, --query     consider query string

    -v, --verbose   show error details

```

### log

Create a log file containing all invalid URL's including error details.

### query

Consider URLs with query strings like `http://www.example.com/?foo=bar` as indiviual sites and add them to the sitemap.

### verbose

Output additional error information in the console.
