RDS instance data failing #4

Open dacamp opened 10 years ago

dacamp commented 10 years ago

An exception is raised when attempting to fetch RDS standard and multi-az data:

AWSPricing::Base.base_uri + AWSPricing::RDS::RDS_BASE_URL + 'standard-deployments.json'
 => "http://aws.amazon.com/rds/pricing/mysql/pricing-standard-deployments.json"
1.9.3p484 :003 > AWSPricing::RDS.standard
MultiJson::LoadError: 795: unexpected token at '<!DOCTYPE HTML>

It's the actual URL that's invalid, so different ruby versions shouldn't matter. I am running 1.9.3 however.

I haven't spent much time on this, but even the EC2 url endpoints look deprecated and at risk to fall off the map at any time.

> AWSPricing::Base.base_uri + AWSPricing::EC2::EC2_BASE_URL + 'on-demand-instances.json'
 => "http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/pricing-on-demand-instances.json"
$ curl -I -L http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/pricing-on-demand-instances.json

Thanks for the report and looking into this. Unfortunately it appears Amazon has moved to JSONP for most pricing data other than EC2 (so far). I'll see what I can do about moving the library over to that.
