Build a Python Tool to Find All API Endpoints on a Website
A Python script that crawls a website, searches for common API endpoint patterns in HTML and JavaScript, and returns all discovered public API URLs.
import re
import requests
from urllib.parse import urljoin, urlparse
from collections import deque
def find_api_endpoints(base_url, max_pages=10):
visited = set()
queue = deque([base_url])
api_endpoints = set()
api_patterns = [
r'/api/[a-zA-Z0-9_/-]+',
r'/v[0-9]+/[a-zA-Z0-9_/-]+',…Find All Redirects on a Website in Python
Crawl a website from a starting URL, follow links within the same domain, and detect every HTTP redirect (301, 302, 303, 307, 308) using requests with redirects disabled.
import requests
from urllib.parse import urljoin, urlparse
from collections import deque
def find_redirects(start_url, max_pages=50):
visited = set()
redirects = {}
queue = deque([start_url])
while queue and len(visited) < max_pages:
url = queue.popleft()
if url in visited:
…Find Broken Image References Across a Website in Python
Crawl internal pages of a website, collect all image source URLs, then check each with HEAD requests to report any that return HTTP 4xx or connection errors.
import requests
from urllib.parse import urljoin, urlparse
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor, as_completed
def find_all_links(base_url, max_pages=50):
visited, to_visit = set(), {base_url}
while to_visit and len(visited) < max_pages:
url = to_visit.pop()
