[hobbit] URLplus

I haven't checked The Shire in a while, but I think it still has an older version. I personally haven't been working on URLPlus for a few months (actually, I left the company I was using the script at), but a former coworker of mine has taken the task of updating the code. I will check with him to see where he's at. Also, I do plan on getting back to developing it, hopefully in the near future (sometime later this year).

Hi Gary,

is there any new URLPlus version? I'm currently using v1.21 ($Id: url-plus.pl,v 1.21 2008/04/30 13:56:07).

Thanks.

Regards.

I have an updated version of URLPLus which supports single-form submissions. I haven't gotten around to being able to submit directly to The Shire, so I'm attaching it here.

I've also updated this to do multi-page checking (i.e. full "end-to-end" transaction monitoring), but consider that feature mostly experimental at this time.

Would you share the bourne script. I need something quickly for only 1 site at the moment, so anything will do.

Can this new extension do the post like the builtin http test can do ?

  Regards, Thomas

I don't think so, as it currently stands. This line:

$ret=qx(curl -m $tout -s -k -S $pstr "$url" 2>&1);

in showUrl is the bit that actually fetches the web page. To do a POST using curl, you would need to change that to:

$ret=qx(curl -m $tout -s -k -S -d $postArgs $pstr "$url" 2>&1);

with matching additions elsewhere to fill the $postArgs variable with whatever you want to post. If you're wanting to implement something that performs a login, you'd probably want to track cookies as well.

I'm not much of a perl programmer, so I'm not confident about making such changes. On the other hand, I've done quite a lot of this in Bourne shell...
