# linkmapy

Create a graph from the links on a website and the following sites.

## Dependencies

- Python 3.9 - 3.10

### Pip Dependencies

You can install those dependencies with 

```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

## Usage

```
./linkmapy.py [-h] [--dump] [--max-depth N] [--max-links-per-site N] [--http-download-limit NBYTES] [--log] url
```

- positional arguments:
    - `url`   The URL of the site you want to start from

- optional arguments:
  - `-h`, `--help`   show this help message and exit
  - `--dump`   Only output the found connections to the console and exit
  - `--max-depth N`   The maximum depth at which links will be followed (default: 3)
  - `--max-links-per-site N`   The maximum amount of links on a page that will be included (default: 3) *
  - `--http-download-limit NBYTES`   The maximum length of a requested html file download (in bytes) (default: 10000000)
  - `--log`   Log all visited sites and links to stderr

\* when there are more than `max-links-per-site` links on the page, the program will pick `max-links-per-site` random links and ignore the rest.

---

The program will visit the website, visit its links and generate a graph from the resulting linkmap. It will write it to `./output.html` and it will try to open this html file with your standard browser.
