Broken links

[spageektti]

I created a Python script that looks for broken links.
It may contain some false positives.
The pages should be checked and corrected.

Script

import os
import re
import requests

def find_all_files(root_dir):
    all_files = []
    for subdir, _, files in os.walk(root_dir):
        for file in files:
            all_files.append(os.path.join(subdir, file))
    return all_files

def extract_link(line):
    match = re.search(r'> More information: <(https?://[^>]+)>', line)
    if match:
        return match.group(1)
    return None

def check_link(url):
    try:
        response = requests.head(url, allow_redirects=True, timeout=10)
        if response.status_code == 404:
            return False
        return True
    except requests.RequestException:
        return False

def process_files(root_dir):
    all_files = find_all_files(root_dir)
    for file_path in all_files:
        with open(file_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as file:
            for line in file:
                link = extract_link(line)
                if link and not check_link(link):
                    rel_path = os.path.relpath(file_path, root_dir)
                    print(f'Broken link in file: {rel_path}')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    root_directory = 'tldr/pages/'
    process_files(root_directory)

Output

Thanks for the work with a simple script,

We already already have a WIP script by @vitorhcl for this with some QoL improvements.

If possible can you checkout #12289 (for discussion), #12506 (for implementation) and improve the existing discussed script.

Hi, I ticked the boxes for genid and virt-manager. The latter's link works properly for me.

[spageektti]

I will open a PR for osx and windows tomorrow. (#12873)

Did you find anything for spatial? I couldn't, besides the latest Web Archive snapshot and here

I checked impropable.io and it seems that they have been inactive for 2 years on any of their social media. SpatialOS seems to be a dead project. I only found other similar project with the same name.

I suggest deletion

A continuous updated issue/list: tldr-pages/tldr-maintenance#129. This issue gets updated every Monday to check all pages/ for any broken links (http code is 100…103 or 200…299 or 429)
