A Ruby library for following links. NET/HTTP does not auto-redirect when webpages return redirects 301's. Also with the amount of url shortening services out there it is common to want to resolve urls to the cononical version.
Linkr fixes this problem through a simple interface.
- Uses Net::HTTP under the hood.
- Linkr requires the addressable Gem. This will be installed as a dependancy when you install Linkr
gem install linkr
require 'linkr'
# easy url resolving
Linkr.resolve("http://bbc.in/pdTHqe") => http://www.bbc.co.uk
# if you need more info
link = Linkr.new("http://bbc.in/pdTHqe", {
redirect_limit => 10 # default 5
})
link.body => "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Tr
ansitional//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xh".......</body></html>"
- currently the passed url is returned unless it is redrected, so 500 errors for example are not reflected
- refactor resolve code
- Fork the project
- Send a pull request
- Don't touch the .gemspec, I'll do that when I release a new version
