DESCRIPTION

WWW::Bookmark::Crawler is a WWW spider and a search engine for personal bookmark. It first extracts links in either a browser-generated bookmark or a plain html file, then retrieves each page's content online and builds the index file. User can use this module to build a personal bookmark search engine.

Parameters:

  • SOURCE

    User may feed it with either the name of bookmark file or reference to an array of urls.

  • DBNAME

    This is passed on to LWP agent.

  • TIMEOUT

    Ditto. Default is 10 seconds.

  • PEEK

    Set it to non-undef if user wants to see the debugging log dumping to STDOUT. Default is undef.
