warc3: Python3 library to work with WARC files

(Note: This is a fork of the original (now dead) warc repository. This is a rough python3 port / update that I used in my warc-extractor located here https://github.com/recrm/ArchiveTools. As the tool is complete, I have mostly stopped development of this library.)

build status

WARC (Web ARChive) is a file format for storing web crawls.

http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/

This warc library makes it very easy to work with WARC files.:

import warc
with warc.open("test.warc") as f:
    for record in f:
        print record['WARC-Target-URI'], record['Content-Length']

Documentation

The documentation of the warc library is available at http://warc.readthedocs.org/.
