Create a Python Script That Detects Website Technology Stack Automatically
This script sends an HTTP request to a URL and inspects headers and HTML content to identify technologies like servers, frameworks, and JavaScript libraries.
import requests
from re import search
def detect_tech_stack(url):
tech_stack = []
try:
response = requests.get(url, timeout=5, headers={'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'})
headers = response.headers
html = response.text.lower() if response.text else ''
# Check server header
…Detect and Remove Blurry Images in Python with OpenCV
Automatically scan a directory of images, detect blur using Laplacian variance, and remove blurry images with a dry-run option for safety.
from pathlib import Path
import cv2
import numpy as np
def is_blurry(image_path, threshold=100.0):
"""
Detect if an image is blurry using Laplacian variance.
Returns True if blurry, False otherwise.
"""
img = cv2.imread(str(image_path), cv2.IMREAD_GRAYSCALE)
if img is None:
return True…Browse by section
