Has anyone configured and ran this utility in the misc folder?
Looks like a cool tool but I don't know enough about perl to know what needs to be modified. I'll take it to my resident perl expert and have him interpret for me and maybe play with it. Just checking before I spend time on it.
Try 'perldoc check-url.pl' to have a documentation: NAME check-url.pl - Check URLs from 856$u field. USAGE check-url.pl [--verbose|--help] [--host=http://default.tld] Scan all URLs found in 856$u of bib records and display if resources are available or not. PARAMETERS --host=http://default.tld Server host used when URL doesn’t have one, ie doesn’t begin with ’http:’. For example, if --host=http://www.mylib.com, then when 856$u contains ’img/image.jpg’, the url checked is: http://www.mylib.com/image.jpg’. --verbose|-v Outputs both successful and failed URLs. --html Formats output in HTML. The result can be redirected to a file accessible by http. This way, it’s possible to link directly to biblio record in edit mode. With this parameter --host-pro is required. --host-pro=http://koha-pro.tld Server host used to link to biblio record editing page. --help|-h Print this help page. -- Frédéric
