Free http browscap software for linux

HTTP::BrowserDetect is a Perl module to determine the Web browser, version, and platform from an HTTP user agent string.

SYNOPSIS

use HTTP::BrowserDetect;

my $browser = new HTTP::BrowserDetect($user_agent_string);

# Detect operating system
if ($browser->windows) {
if ($browser->winnt) ...
if ($brorwser->win95) ...
}
print $browser->mac;

# Detect browser vendor and version
print $browser->netscape;
print $browser->ie;
if (browser->major(4)) {
if ($browser->minor() > .5) {
...
}
}
if ($browser->version() > 4) {
...;
}

# Process a different user agent string
$browser->user_agent($another_user_agent_string);

The HTTP::BrowserDetect object does a number of tests on an HTTP user agent string. The results of these tests are available via methods of the object.

HTTP Proxy Client is the small set of libraries and scripts, which provides transparent access to Internet via HTTP proxy for programs, which uses TCP/IP for communication.
The list of programs includes: telnet, ftp, licq, cvs, smth else? Project implements dynamic library, that can be preloaded before program run.
The library substitutes some system calls (connect(), gethostbyaddr(), gethostbyname()), with calls, which makes TCP/IP connection through HTTP proxy. This allows client programs behind HTTP proxy work with Internet without limitations.
At the moment tested on i386 Linux, i386/sparc Solaris.
Enhancements:
- While using dotted address, applications will attempt to connect regardless DNS lookup result.

lns.http is a simple framework for writing Common Lisp web applications. The project handles the incoming connections, parses HTTP headers and queries, and finally hands control over to your URL handler.

lns.http is a HTTP/1.1 compatible web server but tries to achieve compatibility with lesser (down to the informal HTTP/0.9) clients.

The lns.http web server uses lisp-network-server to take care of network handling.

HTTP::WebTest is a Perl module for testing static and dynamic web content.

SYNOPSIS

use HTTP::WebTest;

my $webtest = new HTTP::WebTest;

# run test from file
$webtest->run_wtscript(script.wt);

# or (to pass test parameters as method arguments)
$webtest->run_tests($tests);

Introduction

This module runs tests on remote URLs containing Perl/JSP/HTML/JavaScript/etc. and generates a detailed test report. This module can be used "as-is" or its functionality can be extended using plugins. Plugins can define test types and provide additional report capabilities. This module comes with a set of default plugins but can be easily extended with third party plugins.

The wt script is provided for running HTTP::WebTest from the command line.
The test specifications can be read from a parameter file in wtscript format or input as method arguments. The test results can be displayed on the terminal, directed to a file, stored in a scalar variable. The test results can also be emailed. The report can be modified and extended using report plugins.

Each URL/web file is tested by fetching it from the web server using a local instance of an HTTP user agent. The basic test is simply whether or not the fetch was successful. You may also test using literal strings or regular expressions that are either required to exist or forbidden to exist in the fetched page. You may also specify tests for the minimum and maximum number of bytes in the returned page. You may also specify tests for the minimum and maximum web server response time.

darkhttpd 1.7 is yet another great addition to your computer. It is actually a secure, lightweight, fast, single-threaded HTTP/1.1 server for static content.

Enhancements:

• Links in directory listings which contain special characters are now URL encoded.

HTTP::DAV is a WebDAV client library for Perl5.
SYNOPSIS
# DAV script that connects to a webserver, safely makes
# a new directory and uploads all html files in
# the /tmp directory.
use HTTP::DAV;
$d = new HTTP::DAV;
$url = "http://host.org:8080/dav/";
$d->credentials( -user=>"pcollins",-pass =>"mypass",
-url =>$url, -realm=>"DAV Realm" );
$d->open( -url=>"$url )
or die("Couldnt open $url: " .$d->message . "n");
# Make a null lock on newdir
$d->lock( -url => "$url/newdir", -timeout => "10m" )
or die "Wont put unless I can lock for 10 minutesn";
# Make a new directory
$d->mkcol( -url => "$url/newdir" )
or die "Couldnt make newdir at $urln";
# Upload multiple files to newdir.
if ( $d->put( -local => "/tmp/*.html", -url => $url ) ) {
print "successfully uploaded multiple files to $urln";
} else {
print "put failed: " . $d->message . "n";
}
$d->unlock( -url => $url );
Main features:
- Full RFC2518 method support. OPTIONS, TRACE, GET, HEAD, DELETE, PUT, COPY, MOVE, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, LOCK, UNLOCK.
- A fully object-oriented API.
- Recursive GET and PUT for site backups and other scripted transfers.
- Transparent lock handling when performing LOCK/COPY/UNLOCK sequences.
- http and https support (https requires the Crypt::SSLeay library). See INSTALLATION.
- Basic AND Digest authentication support (Digest auth requires the MD5 library). See INSTALLATION.
- dave, a fully-functional ftp-style interface written on top of the HTTP::DAV API and bundled by default with the HTTP::DAV library. (If youve already installed HTTP::DAV, then dave will also have been installed (probably into /usr/local/bin). You can see its man page by typing "perldoc dave" or going to http://www.webdav.org/perldav/dave/.
- It is built on top of the popular LWP (Library for WWW access in Perl). This means that HTTP::DAV inherits proxy support, redirect handling, basic (and digest) authorization and many other HTTP operations. See LWP for more information.
- Popular server support. HTTP::DAV has been tested against the following servers: mod_dav, IIS5, Xythos webfile server and mydocsonline. The library is growing an impressive interoperability suite which also serves as useful "sample scripts". See "make test" and t/*.
