Microlink API: Add `html` API Parameter #6

Closed Kikobeats closed 5 years ago

Kikobeats commented 5 years ago

When html is enabled, it will return the HTML used for extracting data.

This will be useful for connecting the API with third-party code, moving the data extraction out of the API.

Combine with prerender you can extract the HTML from any website and then define what do with them.

Because the html could be a huge payload to include as part of the Microlink API, we decided create a separate and specific microservice for this purpose.

debug.microlink.io

Also, the code source is open source so anyone can host their own version in case they need more 🙂
