An app that will analyze and report on links in any model that you register with it. Links can be bare (urls or image and file fields) or embedded in HTML (linkcheck handles the parsing). It's fairly easy to override methods of the Linkcheck object should you need to do anything more complicated (like generate URLs from slug fields etc).

Non-ascii characters in domain names are incorrectly URL encoded #190
When a domain name contains non-ascii characters, they are url encoded, but they should be left as they are (since requests can convert them to punycode under the hood)...
In [1]: from linkcheck.models import Url
In [2]: url = Url(url="https://bafög.de")
In [3]: url.check_url()
Out[3]: False
In [4]: url.error_message
Out[4]: 'Connection Error: NameResolutionError("<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x7f13de75cb10>: Failed to resolve \'baf%c3%b6g.de\' ([Errno -2] Name or service not known)")'
While requests can handle the link (as long as it's not encoded):
In [1]: import requests
In [2]: requests.get("https://bafög.de")
Out[2]: <Response [200]>
