[Feature Req] Google/Bing search data extraction #30

Open derenrich opened 3 years ago

derenrich commented 3 years ago

Thoughts on adding a feature which captures google search / bing knowledge panels as identifiers?

For example:

This would require special handling for these URLs since they don't properly embed the graph id on this page.

I would be willing to code this feature if it's deemed acceptable.

I have actually thought about this, but decided not to do it because I personally use neither bing nor the google search: So I wouldn't notice bugs if they occurred.

If you'd be willing maintain this feature, I'd be happy to receive merge requests

I already maintain a different extension that lets you import data from them but this extension is superior (minus chrome support). I'd be willing to support this functionality though you should know that it will break occasionally as they change their search results formatting.
