Summary

There is an HTTP redirection loop when file_get_contents, curl or
Guzzle is used to fetch a page of Le Soir website, but not with wget.

We so implement a fallback solution to download with this software.

Is that safe?

This overloads Page::get_data, and so must currently be named like this.

A further change will rename every method to CamelCase.

Regression This commit introduces the following issue when the page IS NOT downloaded through this new method:

Warning: array_key_exists() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /usr/home/dereckson/dev/nasqueron/tools/3rdparty/source-templates-generator/page.php on line 237

The Page::meta_tags member isn't set as Page::analyse isn't called anymore.

Thanks to Scoopfinder to have noticed the issue.

page.php
124–129

Add $data = $this->data;.

Fixed issue reported by Scoopfinder.

@xcombelle confirmed on #wikipedia-fr the code is safe as far as security is concerned.

They also noted curl works with a wget user-agent, so maybe Le Soir has a whitelist: once a request is correctly done, further requests aren't filtered in one of the step.

We should maybe contact Le Soir operations team to inquire about this issue.
