HTTP Find

Searches the contents of an HTTP response for a specified term or pattern.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "http_find"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install http_find

Installing this gem will add the executable httpfind to your system.

With httpfind in your $PATH, usage looks like:

$ httpfind [options] URI TERM

This will search the HTTP GET response from URI for the specified TERM.

TERM may be either a simple string or a regular expression in the form $ httpfind -e http://example.com '\d.{2} one' (note the -e option). Check $httpfind --help for more info.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
