Amazon Book Search SE OpenShift

This allows you to find books on amazon through their Product Advertising API. It is a simplified version of amazon-book-search (does not provide express middleware interface). This version does not humanize the results and returns them in original Amazon format. Works well searching by ISBN as well as keywords. It uses an older version of apac so that it supports the openshift node.js version. Because of this it does not automatically throttle, so you will have to do that manually (if required).

Install

 $ npm install amazon-book-search-se-openshift

Requirements

You will need an Amazon API key, secret and associate ID to use this service. For more information,
look at the Amazon Product Advertising API documentation.

Usage

var amazonBookSearchSEOpenShift = require('amazon-book-search-se-openshift');
var absse =  new amazonBookSearchSEOpenShift({ awsKey: "YOUR KEY", awsSecret: "YOUR SECRET", assocId: "YOUR ASSOCIATE TAG" });

// search by ISBN
absse.search('9781413027570', function(error, result){
    if(error){
        console.log(error);
    } else {
        console.log(result);
    }
});

// search by title - first page of 10 results
absse.search('catcher in the rye', function(error, result){
    if(error){
        console.log(error);
    } else {
        console.log(result);
    }
}, 1);

// search by title - second page of 10 results
absse.search('catcher in the rye', function(error, result){
    if(error){
        console.log(error);
    } else {
        console.log(result);
    }
}, 2);

There is a maximum of 10 pages returned by Amazon so only 100 products will be displayed.
