== DESCRIPTION:

Ronin Web is a Ruby library for Ronin that provides support for web
scraping and spidering functionality.

Ronin is a Ruby platform for exploit development and security research.
Ronin allows for the rapid development and distribution of code, exploits
or payloads over many common Source-Code-Management (SCM) systems.

=== Ruby

Ronin's Ruby environment allows security researchers to leverage Ruby with
ease. The Ruby environment contains a multitude of convenience methods
for working with data in Ruby, a Ruby Object Database, a customized Ruby
Console and an extendable command-line interface.

=== Extend

Ronin's more specialized features are provided by additional Ronin
libraries, which users can choose to install. These libraries can allow
one to write and run Exploits and Payloads, scan for PHP vulnerabilities,
perform Google Dorks  or run 3rd party scanners.

=== Publish

Ronin allows users to publish and share code, exploits, payloads or other
data via Overlays. Overlays are directories of code and data that can be
hosted on any SVN, Hg, Git or Rsync server. Ronin makes it easy to create,
install or update Overlays.

== FEATURES:

* Web access (utilizing Mechanize and Nokogiri).
* Integrates Spidr into Ronin::Web::Spider.
* Provides Ronin::Web::Server, a customizable Sinatra based Web Server that
  supports path and host-name routing.
* Provides Ronin::Web::Proxy, a configurable Sinatra based Web Proxy.

== SYNOPSIS:

* Start the Ronin console with Ronin Web preloaded:

    $ ronin-web

== EXAMPLES:

* Get a web-page:

    Web.get('http://www.example.com/')

* Get only the body of the web-page:

    Web.get_body('http://www.example.com/')

* Get a WWW::Mechanize agent:

    agent = Web.agent

* Parse HTML:

    Web.html(open('some_file.html'))
    # => <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
    # <html>
    #   <head>
    #     <script type="text/javascript" src="redirect.js"></script>
    #   </head>
    # </html>

* Build a HTML document:

    doc = Web.build_html do
      html {
        head {
          script(:type => 'text/javascript', :src => 'redirect.js')
        }
      }
    end
    
    puts doc.to_html
    # <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
    # <html><head><script src="redirect.js" type="text/javascript"></script></head></html>

* Parse XML:

    Web.xml(some_text)
    # => <?xml version="1.0"?>
    # <users>
    #   <user>
    #     <name>admin</name>
    #     <password>0mni</password>
    #   </user>
    # </users>


* Build a XML document:

    doc = Web.build_xml do
      playlist {
        mp3 {
          file { text('02 THE WAIT.mp3') }
          artist { text('Evil Nine') }
          track { text('The Wait feat David Autokratz') }
          duration { text('1000000000') }
        }
      }
    end
    
    puts doc.to_xml
    # <?xml version="1.0"?>
    # <playlist>
    #   <mp3>
    #     <file>02 THE WAIT.mp3</file>
    #     <artist>Evil Nine</artist>
    #     <track>The Wait feat David Autokratz</track>
    #     <duration>1000000000</duration>
    #   </mp3>
    # </playlist>

* Spider a web site:

    Web::Spider.host('www.example.com') do |spider|
      spider.every_url do |url|
        # ...
      end

      spider.every_page do |page|
        # ...
      end
    end

* Serve files via a Web Server:

    require 'ronin/web/server'

    Web.server do
      file '/opensearch.xml', '/tmp/test.xml'
      directory '/download/', '/tmp/download/'
    end

    Web.server.get '/test' do
      'Test 1 2 1 2'
    end
