Linkinator¶

Linkinator is a tool to scrape the pages of a webpage and check if its links are broken or not.

Install:¶

From npm repo:
```
npm install -g linkinator
```
Run then with:
```
linkinator
```

Or from git repo

git clone https://github.com/JustinBeckwith/linkinator.git
cd linkinator
npm install .

Run then with:

node build/src/cli.js

Usage¶

linkinator https://my-url.example.com --recurse

Rate limit¶

There is an issue that the software can exceed the rate limit of the server which can lead to some links being marked as broken even though they are not.

There is an issue about that on github. It can be tested on this website by running:

linkinator -r https://linkinator-test.debablo.de
