Support GTIN lookup

Open jidanni opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

The only site I could find that could lookup 4717954323203 was http://gepir.gs1.org/index.php/search-by-gtin .

You may put this URL into the newly added custom URL input for unknown barcodes. Implemented in https://github.com/markusfisch/BinaryEye/commit/2bdf13761e43ecb3568d2145319bba49f163e967

Comes with the next version.

All I know is on some sites, e.g., http://gepir.gs1.org/index.php/search-by-gtin one must place the code in a textbox, and fill out a CAPTCHA.

On other sites one could put the code right into the search URL (https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/2466433 seems to say that not for Google anymore.)

Anyway you would probably need a table: SITE NAME | URL_TEMPLATE with %s for where the user would put in the search string.
