# GoGo Amazon Wish
A Go library to get items from an Amazon wishlist. Unofficial as Amazon
shut down their wishlist API. This uses web scraping to get the items
off a specified wishlist.
## How to use
See [the docs](https://godoc.org/github.com/cheshire137/gogoamazonwish/pkg/amazon).
```sh
go get -u github.com/cheshire137/gogoamazonwish/pkg/amazon
```
```go
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/cheshire137/gogoamazonwish/pkg/amazon"
)
func main() {
url := "https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3I6EQPZ8OB1DT"
wishlist, err := amazon.NewWishlist(url)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalln(err)
}
items, err := wishlist.Items()
if err != nil {
log.Fatalln(err)
}
fmt.Printf("Found %d item(s):\n\n", len(items))
number := 1
for _itemID, item := range items {
fmt.Printf("%d) %s\n\n", number, item)
number++
}
}
```
## How to develop
I built this with Go version 1.13.4. There's a command-line tool to test
loading an Amazon wishlist that you can run via:
`go run cmd/getwishlist/main.go` _URL to Amazon wishlist_ _[proxy URL]..._
You can specify optional proxy URLs to hit Amazon with. Might be useful if you're
hitting errors about Amazon thinking the tool is a bot.
Sample use:
```sh
go run cmd/getwishlist/main.go "https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3I6EQPZ8OB1DT"
```
To run tests: `make`
