""" validate_links.py - URL checker and rewriter for the codebase. This script scans all files in the repository (respecting .gitignore and IGNORED_PATHS), finds all URLs, validates them (including checking for HTML fragments), and can optionally rewrite URLs in-place using a configurable mapping. Features: - Finds all URLs in code, markdown, and docstrings. - Validates URLs by making GET requests (with caching and rate limiting). - Uses BeautifulSoup to check for HTML fragments (e.g., #section) in the target page. - Outputs a summary table of all issues (invalid, broken, missing fragment, etc). - Can output the summary table to a file with `-o`/`--output`. - Can rewrite URLs in-place using URL_REWRITE_MAP (supports both prefix and regex mapping). - Supports dry-run mode for rewrites with `--dry-run`. Usage: # Validate all links and print summary to stdout python scripts/validate_links.py # Output summary table to a file python scripts/validate_links.py -o link_report.txt # Rewrite URLs using URL_REWRITE_MAP (in-place) python scripts/validate_links.py --rewrite # Show what would be rewritten, but do not write files python scripts/validate_links.py --rewrite --dry-run Configuration: - IGNORED_PATHS: List of files/dirs to skip (in addition to .gitignore) - URL_REWRITE_MAP: Dict of {prefix or regex: replacement} for rewriting URLs See the code for more details and examples.
