urifind
URIFIND(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation URIFIND(1p)
NAME
urifind - find URIs in a document and dump them to STDOUT.
SYNOPSIS
$ urifind file
DESCRIPTION
urifind is a simple script that finds URIs in one or more files (using "URI::Find"), and outputs them to to STDOUT. That's it.
To find all the URIs in file1, use:
$ urifind file1
To find the URIs in multiple files, simply list them as arguments:
$ urifind file1 file2 file3
urifind will read from "STDIN" if no files are given or if a filename of "-" is specified:
$ wget http://www.boston.com/ -O - | urifind
When multiple files are listed, urifind prefixes each found URI with the file from which it came:
$ urifind file1 file2
file1: http://www.boston.com/index.html
file2: http://use.perl.org/
This can be turned on for single files with the "-p" ("prefix") switch:
$urifind -p file3
file1: http://fsck.com/rt/
It can also be turned off for multiple files with the "-n" ("no prefix") switch:
$ urifind -n file1 file2
http://www.boston.com/index.html
http://use.perl.org/
By default, URIs will be displayed in the order found; to sort them ascii-betically, use the "-s" ("sort") option. To reverse sort them,
use the "-r" ("reverse") flag ("-r" implies "-s").
$ urifind -s file1 file2
http://use.perl.org/
http://www.boston.com/index.html
mailto:webmaster@boston.com
$ urifind -r file1 file2
mailto:webmaster@boston.com
http://www.boston.com/index.html
http://use.perl.org/
Finally, urifind supports limiting the returned URIs by scheme or by arbitrary pattern, using the "-S" option (for schemes) and the "-P"
option. Both "-S" and "-P" can be specified multiple times:
$ urifind -S mailto file1
mailto:webmaster@boston.com
$ urifind -S mailto -S http file1
mailto:webmaster@boston.com
http://www.boston.com/index.html
"-P" takes an arbitrary Perl regex. It might need to be protected from the shell:
$ urifind -P 's?html?' file1
http://www.boston.com/index.html
$ urifind -P '.org' -S http file4
http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/wget.html
Add a "-d" to have urifind dump the refexen generated from "-S" and "-P" to "STDERR". "-D" does the same but exits immediately:
$ urifind -P '.org' -S http -D
$scheme = '^(http):'
@pats = ('^(http):', '.org')
To remove duplicates from the results, use the "-u" ("unique") switch.
OPTION SUMMARY
-s Sort results.
-r Reverse sort results (implies -s).
-u Return unique results only.
-n Don't include filename in output.
-p Include filename in output (0 by default, but 1 if multiple files are included on the command line).
-P $re
Print only lines matching regex '$re' (may be specified multiple times).
-S $scheme
Only this scheme (may be specified multiple times).
-h Help summary.
-v Display version and exit.
-d Dump compiled regexes for "-S" and "-P" to "STDERR".
-D Same as "-d", but exit after dumping.
