Tonight's exercise was to parse the output of https://en.wikipedia.org, and
count how many HTML <div>
tags are included on that page.
The Meetup group was split in to two teams, and each team was assigned a Rust HTTP library to demo and use in their final project code.
After some time spent hacking, this repo is the result of "Team Mongoose", which was assigned a non-hyper HTTP crate. We tried a MIO version of some HTTP crate but unfortunately that was not mature enough. We settled on using Rust bindings for cURL.
Enjoy!
