Amazon onebox issue

For some reason, the onebox doesn’t actually fill anything out
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H4SSB02

Doesn’t appear limited to just .com either:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00H4SSB02

Edit: It seems the Amazon side is working OK:

Hmm. Testing full link (for a different product):

Test…

I think I fixed it for most of the products.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H4SSB02 seems to be a special case.

Just a thought: It would be nice if this code also matched the smile.amazon.com domain (the rest of the URL is always the same) which allows non-profits to get a cut of the revenue.

Submit a PR to expand the URL matching:

Is there a reason we try to scrape using mobile pages from Amazon? The desktop pages contains a description meta tag that we can use to improve reliability and avoid breaking Amazon onebox everytime they change their HTML.

The idea was that mobile would have less cruft to sort through, if desktop is easier, go for it.

Hmm, der Meta-Tag für die Beschreibung ist ziemlich gut, aber ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob auf Amazon.com. *Kostenloser* Versand auf qualifizierte Angebote zu sehr ablenkt. Ich würde gerne eure Gedanken dazu hören :smiley_cat:

Hmm, ich habe es mit der Beschreibung im meta-Tag versucht, aber ich finde, das wirkt zu sehr wie Werbung, anstatt mehr Informationen über das Produkt zu liefern.

Ich bleibe bei den mobilen Seiten.

Have we pulled in the updated onebox @eviltrout?

I just bumped it. I can’t say for sure if we were on the latest because our gemfile referenced a version that was pushed to Rubygems that wasn’t also set in our repo. I can confirm that now we are on the very latest onebox code.

Test again:

Looks like this bug isn’t fixed, or we still aren’t deploying the latest version of onebox.

The PR hasn’t been merged yet :wink:

https://github.com/discourse/onebox/pull/304

Ok can we please merge that @neil? And merge in onebox version update too.
