Windows (ActivePerl 5.8.0) version of W3C's Link Checker Perl-script |
| |
Modified version of checklink.pl (revision 3.6.2.17) available from CVS log for validator/httpd/cgi-bin/checklink.pl (from 14th of August 2003):
checklink_w32.zip
- contains:
- checklink.pl - original downloaded (UNIX) version
- checklink_w32.pl - modified (Windows) version
- checklink_w32.bat - MS-DOS Bat(ch) program to call checklink_w32.pl
- checklink_w32.conf - required configuration files (empty)
- General.pm - Config::General perl module from CPAN
- how to use:
- Download and unzip the zip-file into a local directory (C:\checklink) on your PC
- Start a Command Prompt
- Change directory to where you unzipped the files (i.e. C: followed by cd \checklink)
- Start checklink_w32.bat (without any arguments) from the Command Prompt
- If the program complains about some missing perl modules then install those using the ActiveState Perl Package Manager (PPM)
- If you cannot seem to locate and install Config/General.pm using PPM then copy the downloaded file General.pm (originally downloaded from CPAN) to a directory named Config (that you may have to create yourself) located under the first path in @INC (usually C:\Perl\lib)
- Start checklink_w32.bat with your favourite url or file as argument (i.e. checklink_w32.bat [http://www.CeDeT.dk/perl/]index.html)
The configuration file included above is empty, since I did not know what to put in it! W3C has a convenient web interface for all of this: W3C Link Checker. They also have some documentation on the Link Checker - I haven't read it, but you go ahead...
