Aryll

Aryll is a simple library to check for the well-being of URLs. It supports HTTPS and IDN URIs.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

 gem 'aryll'

And then execute:

 $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

 $ gem install aryll

Usage

It will check any object that responds to url:

  status = Aryll.check!(my_url)
  unless status.ok?
    puts status
  end

You can ignore 301 permanent redirect that only add a trailing slash like this:

  status = Aryll::LinkChecker.check!(url, ignore_trailing_slash_redirects: true)
  unless status.ok?
    # A redirect from http://example.com/foo to http://example.com/foo/ will be considered ok
  end

I18n

The following keys are used to translate error messages using the I18n gem:

• kauperts.link_checker.errors.timeout: message when rescueing from Timeout::Error
• kauperts.link_checker.errors.generic_network: message when (currently) rescueing from all other exceptions
