Note: This is a fork of the original (now dead) warc repository.
WARC (Web ARChive) is a file format for storing web crawls.
This warc library makes it very easy to work with WARC files.:
import warc
with warc.open("test.warc") as f:
for record in f:
print(record['WARC-Target-URI'], record['Content-Length'])
And WET files.:
import warc
with warc.open("test.warc.wet") as f:
for record in f:
print(record['WARC-Target-URI'], record['Content-Length'])
Documentation
The documentation of the warc library is available at http://warc.readthedocs.org/.
Apart from the install from pip, which will not work for this warc3 version, the interface as described there is unchanged.
