I have the following script:
import sys
import os
import re
pages = []
if len(sys.argv) > 1:
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(sys.argv[1]):
for f in files:
filename = os.path.join(root, f)
if (filename.endswith('.html')) or (filename.endswith('.htm')):
pages.append(filename)
for page in pages:
f = open(page, "r")
count = 1
for line in f:
if re.match("<a href=\"", line):
split1 = re.split("<a href=\"", line)[1]
split = re.split("\"", split1)
if not os.path.exists(split[0]):
if not split[0].startswith("www"):
print "################### Link Error ###################"
print "Error with line %i in file %s, the page '%s' doesn't exist:" % (count, page, split[0])
print line
elif re.match("<a href='", line):
split1 = re.split("<a href='", line)[1]
split = re.split("'", split1)
if not os.path.exists(os.path.abspath(split[0])):
if not split[0].startswith("www"):
print "################### Link Error ###################"
print "Error with line %i in file %s, the page '%s' doesn't exist:" % (count, page, split[0])
print line
count += 1when run:
