linkchecker: Output results to a CSV file.
$ linkchecker --file-output ${csv}/${filename} ${https:--example-com-}
try on your machine

This command is using the "linkchecker" tool to check the links within a specific website. The tool will output the results to a file.

Let's break down the command:

  • "linkchecker" is the command being executed.
  • "--file-output" is an option that specifies the output format. It tells linkchecker to save the results to a file.
  • "${csv}/${filename}" is the path where the output file will be stored. It seems to be using variables called "csv" and "filename" to construct the path dynamically.
  • "${https:--example-com-}" is the website URL that will be checked. Again, it appears to be using a variable to specify the URL dynamically.

In summary, this command will use linkchecker to check the links within the specified website URL, and it will save the results to a file with a dynamically constructed path.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
