Spider parser
=============

[Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/tmpfs/wget-parser)
[npm version](https://npmjs.org/package/wget-parser)
[Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/github/tmpfs/wget-parser?branch=master).

Parses the spider output from [wget](https://www.gnu.org/software/wget) into an object structure of links.

This object could then be processed further to create a tree structure of the hierarchy of a website such that sitemap generation could be implemented.

Tested using `wget v1.15` on linux.

## Usage

```javascript
var parser = require('wget-parser')
, buf = new Buffer(0); // buffer should contain the spider output
console.dir(parser(buf));
```

* `parser.Parser`: The parser class.
* `parser.Link`: The class that represents a link.
* `parser.ParseStream`: Parse stream class.

Streams support is available, see the [test spec](https://github.com/tmpfs/wget-parser/blob/master/test/spec/parser.js) for example usage.

### wget-parser

A program that reads from `stdin` and prints the result of the parse as JSON, exits with error code 1 if any broken links are found.

```
cat test/fixtures/mock.txt | wget-parser
cat test/fixtures/broken.txt | wget-parser; echo $?;
```

### wget-spider

A program that performs a spider with [wget](https://www.gnu.org/software/wget) and pipes the output to `wget-parser`:

```
wget-spider http://google.com
```

## Output

Example output from the parser:

```json
