Search Items without mandatory args #85

Closed DanielBakovic closed 2 years ago

DanielBakovic commented 2 years ago

Hi.

I'm wondering why search_items is not working without parameters like: keywords, actor, artist, author, brand or title. I can use Amazon PAAPI Scratchpad without those parameters. In my opinion, those parameters should be optional.

By commenting out _check_search_mandatory_args(**kwargs) the API works for my needs.

Best regards, Daniel

Hello Daniel. You need to pass at least one search item for the API to return something. What are you passing? Thanks!

Hello Sergio,

Thx for your response. I'm using the API to grab discounted products by browesenode ID:

search_results = amazon.search_items(item_count=10, item_page=page,browse_node_id=browsenode, min_saving_percent=settings.savings_threshold)

This works only if I comment out the parameter check.
