/* This file implements the Robot Exclusion Standard (RES).
RES is a simple protocol that enables site admins to signalize to
the web crawlers that certain parts of the site should not be
accessed. All the admin needs to do is create a "robots.txt" file
in the web server root, and use simple commands to allow or
disallow access to certain parts of the site.
The first specification was written by Martijn Koster in 1994, and
is still available at .
In 1996, Martijn wrote an Internet Draft specifying an improved RES
specification; however, that work was apparently abandoned since
the draft has expired in 1997 and hasn't been replaced since. The
draft is available at
.
This file implements RES as specified by the draft. Note that this
only handles the "robots.txt" support. The META tag that controls
whether the links should be followed is handled in `html-url.c'.
Known deviations:
* The end-of-line comment recognition is more in the spirit of the
Bourne Shell (as specified by RES-1994). That means that
"foo#bar" is taken literally, whereas "foo #bar" is interpreted
as "foo". The Draft apparently specifies that both should be
interpreted as "foo".
* We don't recognize sole CR as the line ending.
* We don't implement expiry mechanism for /robots.txt specs. I
consider it non-necessary for a relatively short-lived
application such as Wget. Besides, it is highly questionable
whether anyone deploys the recommended expiry scheme for
robots.txt.
Entry points are functions res_parse, res_parse_from_file,
res_match_path, res_register_specs, res_get_specs, and
res_retrieve_file. */

Return a specs objects ready to be fed to res_match_path.
The parsing itself is trivial, but creating a correct SPECS object
is trickier than it seems, because RES is surprisingly byzantine if
you attempt to implement it correctly.
A "record" is a block of one or more `User-Agent' lines followed by
one or more `Allow' or `Disallow' lines. Record is accepted by
Wget if one of the `User-Agent' lines was "wget", or if the user
agent line was "*".
After all the lines have been read, we examine whether an exact
("wget") user-agent field was specified. If so, we delete all the
lines read under "User-Agent: *" blocks because we have our own
Wget-specific blocks. This enables the admin to say:
User-Agent: *
Disallow: /
User-Agent: google
User-Agent: wget
Disallow: /cgi-bin
This means that to Wget and to Google, /cgi-bin is disallowed,
whereas for all other crawlers, everything is disallowed.
res_parse is implemented so that the order of records doesn't
matter. In the case above, the "User-Agent: *" could have come
after the other one. */
