product-info

product-info

Extracts limited product information for a given web page.

Limitations

Current implementation is crude with generic (non-schema.org) websites being limited to only name and price information.

When a URL is provided the page is opened in jsdom, and is set to fetch and process external script tags. To skip this pass in the HTML of the page instead.

Installation

npm install product-info

Return

A javascript object is returned with a similar structure to the schema.org product schema; however, canonical references were removed.

Example

// Returned
{
  name: 'Blue Shirt',
  description: 'A blue colored shirt',
  offers: {
    price: '20.00',
    priceCurrency: 'USD',
    availability: 'InStock'
  }
}
