= rawler * http://github.com/oscardelben/rawler == DESCRIPTION: Rawler is a Ruby library that crawls your website and checks the status code for each of your links. Useful for finding dead links. Rawler will only parse pages with content type 'text/html', but it will check for the response code of every link. Rawler writes to $stdout and in the future it will be possible for which status code to notify. Please note: I had to temporarily remove url encoding in order to resolve some issues, so if you find any issue, please let me know. I'm also going to use Mechanizer for parsing pages with the next release. == SYNOPSIS: rawler http://example.com [options] where [options] are: --username, -u <s>: HTT Basic Username --password, -p <s>: HTT Basic Password --version, -v: Print version and exit --help, -h: Show this message == INSTALL: gem install rawler == DEVELOPMENT: You need fakeweb and rspec to run the tests.
