    • Ignore broken URLs which appear more than 10 times
    • Chances are that if we encounter a broken URL more than 10 times, it will be part of the site's header or footer, and therefore there is no point in reporting it on every single page.
  • Change: f6079f91b0bb106ad7a5811c80e059feb4271a0b Author: Paul Waring <paul.waring@manchester.ac.uk> Date : 2014-05-02 14:57:37 +0000

    • Configure Text::CSV
    • Always quote (makes importing into other applications easier).
    • Explicitly set end of line character as Text::CSV default does not appear to work.
  • Change: 5439144f395e66d0e0b8df59f77617b390d13efa Author: Paul Waring <paul.waring@manchester.ac.uk> Date : 2014-04-29 12:10:03 +0000

    • Don't check URLs which we have previously scanned
    • This check needs to be further up to prevent unnecessary HEAD requests.

    • Remove URL fragment
    • This prevents us from making a HEAD request for the same page multiple times.

    • Only check http(s) links
    • Don't need to check javascript, mailto etc.
    • Also move sleep gaps to immediately after get/head is called, so we definitely pause after each request.

    • Issue HEAD request and check content-type

    • Stop Mechanize from dying on errors
    • We want to check if a URL is not found and handle it gracefully, whereas default behaviour in WWW::Mechanize is to die() immediately.
  • Change: 25abdd48411d4e22c9d19f2c40052b2bb53b7bbc Author: Paul Waring <paul.waring@manchester.ac.uk> Date : 2014-04-28 16:09:16 +0000
