This change is made because the linkchecker handlers only process
Tags.
The test HtmlPrettyPrinter handler is updated to output element text
because its support for non-Tag elements has been removed. This results
in a number of the existing tests still passing.
http_persistent() unused since:
4b818cb4 ("Detect more cases to close the connection, and close response
objects", 2006-09-15)
http_keepalive(), get_content_encoding() unused since:
7b34be59 ("Introduce check plugins, use Python requests for http/s
connections, and some code cleanups and improvements.", 2014-03-01)
Shown every time linkchecker is run:
/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/bs4/element.py:16: UserWarning: The
soupsieve package is not installed. CSS selectors cannot be used.
'The soupsieve package is not installed. CSS selectors cannot be used.'
The test was added but not the fix in:
ecd06776 ("Fix TypeError when checking https link and test", 2019-11-11)
Which is caught by the new test when run on Python 3:
___________________ TestHttps.test_x509_to_dict__________________
[gw14] linux -- Python 3.6.9 /usr/bin/python3.6
tests/checker/test_https.py:72: in test_x509_to_dict
self.assertEqual(httputil.x509_to_dict(cert)["notAfter"],
linkcheck/httputil.py:47: in x509_to_dict
parsedtime = asn1_generaltime_to_seconds(notAfter)
linkcheck/httputil.py:68: in asn1_generaltime_to_seconds
res = datetime.strptime(timestr, timeformat + 'Z')
E TypeError: strptime() argument 1 must be str, not bytes
Socket communication deals with bytes.
There are probably remaining issues with the viruscheck plugin on
Python 3, we just can't see them because the code is not fully covered
with tests.
MS Word files are binary data, and get_temp_filename() will write them
to disk using open(..., 'wb'), so we want to pass bytes in there, not
Unicode.
See #323.
This code was added in:
efbbb656 ("Remove python-dns conflict by moving the dns module into a custom subdirectory.", 2012-12-07)
Installation of linkcheck_dns stopped with:
0a13fae3 ("remove third party packages and use them as dependency", 2018-01-06)
This fixes a race condition where the main thread would check if any
internal errors happened and get back a 0 while a worker thread was
still busy printing the internal error message before incrementing the
counter.
Fixes#320.
My experiments show that this adds no perceptible delay to the script
runtime (on Linux). More specifically, there already is an annoying
perceptible delay of about 1 second, but it's not caused by this change.
Stopped being used with removal of UrlBase.set_title_from_content() in:
7b34be59 ("Introduce check plugins, use Python requests for http/s connections, and some code cleanups and improvements.", 2014-03-01)
Not needed since all content is now being decoded on retrieval.
