Query language designed to extract information from a bunch of HTML files. The idea is to be able to extract information from a bunch of files linked between each others, using a syntax similar to regexp.

For tutorial and examples, please see the project's wiki. As a teasing, here is some samples for a tiny command line for listing a RSS stream's title :

webrexp '"http://someurl.com" >> item title [.]'

And another one to dump all the images from a webpage

webrexp '"http://someurl.com" >> img [.]'

Haskell users can directly grab releases on Hackage.

To build the webrexp project you must have GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler) installed and some cabal package. To know which package your are missing, in the source folder type :

make conf

A list of missing package should be shown, then you can

cabal install packagename

for every missing package and finally type maketo build. Or you can download the binary. Binary are simpler. So fucking simpler.
