---
-- A smallish httpspider library providing basic spidering capabilities
-- It consists of the following classes:
--
-- * <code>Options</code>
-- ** This class is responsible for handling library options.
--
-- * <code>LinkExtractor</code>
-- ** This class contains code responsible for extracting urls from web pages.
--
-- * <code>URL</code>
-- ** This class contains code to parse and process URLs.
--
-- * <code>UrlQueue</code>
-- ** This class contains a queue of the next links to process.
--
-- * <code>Crawler</code>
-- ** This class is responsible for the actual crawling.
--
-- The following sample code shows how the spider could be used:
-- <code>
--   local crawler = httpspider.Crawler:new( host, port, '/', { scriptname = SCRIPT_NAME } )
--   crawler:set_timeout(10000)
--
--   local result
--   while(true) do
--     local status, r = crawler:crawl()
--     if ( not(status) ) then
--       break
--     end
--     if ( r.response.body:match(str_match) ) then
--        crawler:stop()
--        result = r.url
--        break
--     end
--   end
--
--   return result
-- </code>
--
-- For advanced use, the library currently supports a number of closures (withinhost,
-- withindomain, doscraping). Please note, that withinhost and withindomain options also
-- support boolean values. You will want to override them only for advanced use. You can
-- define them using the following utilities:
--
-- * <code>iswithinhost</code>
-- ** You can use this utility to check if the resource exists within the host.
--
-- * <code>iswithindomain</code>
-- ** You can use this utility to check if the resource exists within the domain.
--
-- * <code>isresource</code>
-- ** You can use this utility to check the type of the resource (for example "js").
-- ** A third option may hold a number of signs that may exist after the extension
-- ** of the resource. By default, these are [#, ?]. For example, if we want to return
-- only php resources, the function will also return example.php?query=foo or
-- example.php#foo.
--
-- The following sample code shows an example usage. We override the default
-- withinhost method and we allow spidering only on resources within the host
-- that they are not "js" or "css".
-- <code>
--   crawler.options.withinhost = function(url)
--       if crawler:iswithinhost(url)
--       and not crawler:isresource(url, "js")
--       and not crawler:isresource(url, "css") then
--           return true
--       end
--    end
-- </code>

-- @author Patrik Karlsson <patrik@cqure.net>
--
-- @args httpspider.maxdepth the maximum amount of directories beneath
--       the initial url to spider. A negative value disables the limit.
--       (default: 3)
-- @args httpspider.maxpagecount the maximum amount of pages to visit.
--       A negative value disables the limit (default: 20)
-- @args httpspider.url the url to start spidering. This is a URL
--       relative to the scanned host eg. /default.html (default: /)
-- @args httpspider.withinhost Closure that overrides the default withinhost
--       function that only spiders URLs within the same host. If this is
--       set to false the crawler will spider URLs both inside and outside
--       the host. See the closure section above to override the default
--       behaviour. (default: true)
-- @args httpspider.withindomain Closure that overrides the default
--       withindomain function that only spiders URLs within the same
--       domain. This widens the scope from <code>withinhost</code> and can
--       not be used in combination. See the closure section above to
--       override the default behaviour. (default: false)
-- @args httpspider.noblacklist if set, doesn't load the default blacklist
-- @args httpspider.useheadfornonwebfiles if set, the crawler would use
--       HEAD instead of GET for files that do not have extensions indicating
--       that they are webpages (the list of webpage extensions is located in
--       nselib/data/http-web-files-extensions.lst)
-- @args httpspider.doscraping Closure that overrides the default doscraping
--       function used to check if the resource should be scraped (in terms
--       of extracting any links within it). See the closure section above to
--       override the default behaviour.
