hxcopy

HXCOPY(1)							  HTML-XML-utils							 HXCOPY(1)

NAME

       hxcopy - copy an HTML file and update its relative links

SYNOPSIS

       hxcopy [ -i old-URL ] [ -o new-URL ] [ file-or-URL [ file-or-URL ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  hxcopy  command  copies  its  first argument to its second argument, while updating relative links. The input is assumed to be HTML or
       XHTML and may be slightly reformatted in the process.

       If the second argument is omitted, hxcopy writes to standard output. In this case the option -o is required. If the first argument is  also
       omitted, hxcopy reads from standard input. In this case the option -i is required.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -i old-URL
		 For  the purposes of updating relative links, act as if old-URL is the location from which the input is copied. If this option is
		 omitted, the actual location of the first argument is used for calculating relative links.

       -o new-URL
		 For the purposed of updating relative links, act as if new-URL is the location to which the input is copied. If  this	option	is
		 omitted, the actual location of the second argument is used for calculating relative links.

ENVIRONMENT

       To use a proxy to retrieve remote files, set the environment variables http_proxy and ftp_proxy.  E.g., http_proxy="http://localhost:8080/"

BUGS

       Unlike the last argument of cp(1), the last argument of hxcopy must be a file, not a directory.

       The  second  argument  must  be	a  local  file.  Writing  to  a  URL is not yet implemented. To work around this, replace hxcopy file.html
       http://example.org/file.html by hxcopy -o http://example.org/file.html file.html tmp.html and then upload tmp.html to the  given  URL  with
       some other command, such as curl(1).  The first argument, however, may be a URL.  hxcopy will download the given file. (Currently only HTTP
       is supported.)

EXAMPLE

       Assume the HTML file foo.html contains a relative link to "../bar.html". Here are some examples of commands:

       hxcopy foo.html bar/foo.html
	      The file foo.html is copied to ../bar/foo.html and the relative link to "../bar.html" becomes "../../bar.html".

       hxcopy foo.html ../foo.html
	      The file foo.html is copied to ../foo.html and the relative link to "../bar.html" is rewritten as "bar.html".

       hxcopy -i http://my.org/dir1/foo.html -o http://my.org/foo.html file1.html file2.html
	      The file file1.html is copied to file2.html and the relative link to "../bar.html" is rewritten as "bar.html". A command	like  this
	      may be useful to update files that are later uploaded to a server.
