Hi @kohonez! Cam you give me the version of PriceHero that you are using. Do this:

import PriceHero as ph
print(ph.__version__)

Thanks!

[mehtaarn000]

Ok, the new version (0.5.2) should fix this bug. You can update PriceHero by running: pip install --upgrade PriceHero-mehtaarn000

Let me know if you still have issues with this module.

ooops! i was trying with newegg by mistake.. still have issues with amazon :(..

import PriceHero as ph
print(ph.__version__)

laptop = ph.amazon("https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FJ6ZB4V")
print(laptop)

OUTPUT: 0.5.2 {'name': 'GeIL Orion DDR4 RAM, 32GB (16GBx2) 3600MHz 1.35V XMP2.0, Intel/AMD Compatible, Long DIMM High Speed Desktop Memory, Hardcore Immersive Gaming/Multimedia Content Creation/Quality Live Streaming', 'price': None}

That's really strange. When I run the code:

import PriceHero as ph
print(ph.__version__)

laptop = ph.amazon("https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FJ6ZB4V")
print(laptop)

I get:

0.5.2 {'name': 'GeIL Orion DDR4 RAM, 32GB (16GBx2) 3600MHz 1.35V XMP2.0, Intel/AMD Compatible, Long DIMM High Speed Desktop Memory, Hardcore Immersive Gaming/Multimedia Content Creation/Quality Live Streaming', 'price': '$185.99'}

It might have to do with your OS. Can you tell me what operating system you are using?

[kohonez]

Win7 64 bits

[kohonez]

let me try in a Linux box..

[kohonez]

same in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

[mehtaarn000]

After fixing this module and testing on a Windows 10 machine I got the expected output on both of my computers. Upgrade your version again and try. Let me know again if any errors occur!

[kohonez]

Same, i'd tried in local Win7/Linux machines and a VPS with different ip, it's the same error.

[mehtaarn000]

Ok, I'm not really sure what's going wrong here. I'm going to try and tackle this tomorrow after getting some sleep. Thanks for notifying be about this issue though!

[kilianplapp]

Is it possible you might have encountered some sort of scrape/automation blocking page from amazon?

[kilianplapp]

I cannot replicate this problem on a Windows 10 64bit PC running Python 3.9.4

[mehtaarn000]

@kilianalias Meaning you get the expected output?

[kilianplapp]

Yes, I get the expected output.
