Find your broken links, so users don't.

👋 Hi friend!

I'm Ricky and I came into tech from a non-traditional background. I'm an enthusiastic problem solver with passion for creating and building, from software and websites to books and bonsai. I consider myself a lifelong learner and try to learn something new each day.

I'm currently working at The Migus Group where I wear multiple hats as the Director of Technology and Operations.

A few other things about me:

📝 I'm a writer, who has authored both fiction and non-fiction books.

👨‍⚕️ I used to be a registered nurse.

🥋 I'm also a martial artist, holding the rank of Nidan (second-degree black belt) in Shaolin Kempo.

🌲 I collect and maintain a modest Bonsai collection

pyanchor's Issues

Make default output use `rich`

Enhance default table output with the very popular rich project - https://rich.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Track broken link origin

When a broken link is found, then a user should be able to track the origin of the link. Especially when dealing with large sets of links from a sitemap, for instance.

Package into an executable file

Provide a standalone .exe for easier distribution. This will allow it to be added to package managers as well as make it useful for non-python devs.

Rename `master` branch to `main`

Terminal colorization inconsistent

It appears that the terminal colorization provided by Typer (which is inherited from Click) doesn't display on all terminals. Most notably, PowerShell and CMD.

Allow result to be output into a `csv`

The user should have the option to output the results to a CSV file instead of the default terminal Table

Update usage Gifs

Update usage gifs for current release versions.

Start Test Web app on a subprocess

Currently, to test PyAnchor, the testing Flask app needs to be started in a separate terminal session before tests can be run against it.

Ideally the test suite should do this automatically, and end the process when testing is complete.

Parse sitemap of sitemaps.

Not all sitemaps are a list of pages on a website. For larger sites, the main sitemap may be a list of sub-sitemaps. This is sometimes common with CMS frameworks.

PyAnchor should be configured to work with this multiple sitemap structure.

Dealing with relative links

Currently the check_link_for_http_scheme method in the LinkResults class returns None when it sees a relative link starting with a ./ or ../. Same applies to links that start with #.

This links should be parsed and a full URL determined so that it can be passed to the final links dictionary.

Documentation for Contributing / Testing PyAnchor

Contribution and "How to Test" documentation needed for future contributors.

Add LinkAnalysis feature to CLI

Add the ability to run LinkAnalysis over a set of anchor tags from the CLI.

Should output the results in an easy to read format, such as a table.

Distribute via `winget`

Depends on #35.
