## HTTrack Programming page - scripting

We will see here several examples, written in batch script (can be adapted to almost all batch script languages) or in C.

How to get one single file `httrack --get http://localhost/`

How to get one single file and pipe it to stdout `httrack --quiet --get http://localhost/ -O tmpget -V "cat \$0" | grep -iE "TITLE" rm -rf tmpget`

How to search in all HTML files on a website `httrack --skeleton http://localhost/ -V "if grep -iE \"TITLE\" \"\$0\">/dev/null; then echo \"Match found at \$0\"; fi" rm -rf tmpget` Same thing but matches only the first file: `httrack --skeleton http://localhost/ -V "if grep -iE \"TITLE\" \"\$0\">/dev/null; then echo \"Match found at \$0\"; kill -9 \$PPID; fi" rm -rf tmpget`

Indexing a website, and using the index as a search engine
`httrack localhost -%I`
Will generate an index.txt file, which contains all detected keywords, sorted and indexed using this format:

keyword <tab> number_of_hits_in_current_page_for_this_keyword page_location <tab> number_of_hits_in_current_page_for_this_keyword page_location <tab> number_of_hits_in_current_page_for_this_keyword page_location ... =total_number_of_hits_for_this_keyword ((total_number_of_hits_for_this_keyword*1000)/total_number_of_keywords)
