Option --crawl-replace-urls does not replace the crawled URLs

[VAdri]

The option --crawl-replace-urls indicates:

Replace URLs of saved pages with relative paths of saved pages on the filesystem

So if I understand correctly the HTML extracted by single-file should have all its URLs crawled with the option --crawl-links replaced by the file path on which they are exported.

However, when I try this command I get only the original URLs:

./single-file-x86_64-linux https://example.com --crawl-links=true --crawl-max-depth=1 --crawl-inner-links-only=false --crawl-replace-urls=true

I also tried this command from the README using the option --crawl-rewrite-rule but it did not work either:

./single-file-x86_64-linux https://www.wikipedia.org --crawl-links=true --crawl-inner-links-only=true --crawl-max-depth=1 --crawl-rewrite-rule="^(.*)\\?.*$ $1"

I was able to make it work on v2.0.0 but not since v2.0.2.

In the first example, there are no inner links. The second example does not work anymore (I'm pretty sure it used to work in the past) because there are no link with a resolved URL starting with "https://www.wikipedia.org/" in the page.

Is it supposed to work only for inner links? Because I did put the option --crawl-inner-links-only=false in my first example.

But even with inner links only it doesn't do the trick apparently:

./single-file https://matklad.github.io/2024/09/23/what-is-io-uring.html --crawl-links=true --crawl-max-depth=1 --crawl-inner-links-only=true --crawl-replace-urls=true

That was not working because --crawl-replace-urls written in lowercase did not work. I fixed this issue in the last version I've just published.
