This week I added two new features to my CLI program.

1. JSON output support
2. Good/Bad output support

With the newly added -j argument you the program will compile all the links into a JSON object and print it at the end on the command line.

The new -g/-b arguments allow you to specify to only print good (status 200-299) or bad (status 400-599)

A cool feature I added is that you can combine these two new arguments into something like

python link-check.py -j -g -f urls.txt

Which will only output good urls that are in a JSON object.

In addition this is the first time I have used the 'git merge' command instead of creating pull requests for my projects. It went pretty smoothly but I accidentally created a branch from my completed json branch. This caused MAJOR issues when trying to merge everything to master, I had to deal with a lot of conflict issues. But alas, I fixed them all and got it all pushed in the end with a little bit of 'git revert' magic.

2. -g,-b Support: https://github.com/MLJBrackett/link-check/commit/2e506df858ecd9d9eebd75209ec407687e8feada

Lesson learned: Don't branch off a feature branch if the new branch doesn't use the new feature.
