C.L.I.G.O.N or Cligon is an acronym that stands for Check if Link Is Good Or Not. It is designed to check all website links inside a file. This program was written in Python 3.8.2. It will return a list of good, bad, or unknown URL statuses.
- good urls are status code 200.
- bad urls are status codes 400 or 404.
- unknowns are status codes that aren't bad or good.
For prerequisites please see CONTRIBUTING.
To use Cligon, please run in a terminal of your choice:
python3 cligon.py [file name]Or, if executable privileges are invoked in a Linux environment (chmod +x cligon):
./cligon [file name]Ensure you make a copy of cligon.py (cp cligon.py cligon) to execute the command above.
Additionally, instructions and options can be viewed by running Cligon without any arguments.
