linky

linky is a simple link-checker for websites. Given a start URL which returns HTML it will recursively fetch all referenced URLs and check if they return a valid result. It does not leave the domain it was started on so it is suitable for testing a complete website without leaving to external sites.

Installation

If you have a current (>=1.8) go installation you can simply do:

go get github.com/xperimental/linky

Binary release can be found on the Releases page.

There's also a Docker image xperimental/linky. The latest tag points to the master-version and releases are also tagged.
