  • Method Details

    • isToBeCaptured

      protected boolean isToBeCaptured(String link)
      Returns true if the link is one we are interested in.
      Overrides:
      isToBeCaptured in class SiteCapturer
      Parameters:
      link - The link to be checked.
      Returns:
      true if the link has the source URL as a prefix and doesn't contain '?' or '#'; the former because we won't be able to handle server side queries in the static target directory structure and the latter because presumably the full page with that reference has already been captured previously. This performs a case insensitive comparison, which is cheating really, but it's cheap.
    • main

      public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, IOException
      Mainline to capture a web site locally.
      Parameters:
      args - The command line arguments. There are three arguments the web site to capture, the local directory to save it to, and a flag (true or false) to indicate whether resources such as images and video are to be captured as well. These are requested via dialog boxes if not supplied.
      Throws:
      MalformedURLException - If the supplied URL is invalid.
      IOException - If an error occurs reading the pages or resources.
