Redirect / Translator selection problem (DOI Resolver?)

[mtrojan-ub]

Only happens for some websites, e.g.: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-law-and-religion/article/new-genealogy-of-religious-freedom/A76E3285DBD0EEF59A0EB82D4F4068E7

In Zotero you see the following tags (using Translator "Cambridge Core"):

Translation Server's returned JSON contains only an empty tags array.

hmm, tested it via curl, might have to do something with our environment...

After a bit more testing, i found out that the reason might be similar to #49, except there is a different kind of redirect and testing is not restricted to ourselves.

The problem occurs if you try to harvest the DOI URL instead of the URL mentioned above: https://dx.doi.org/10.1017/jlr.2018.11?urlappend=%3Fsource=rss

Then you get this result: [{"key":"4KR54S7G","version":0,"itemType":"journalArticle","creators":[{"firstName":"David","lastName":"Decosimo","creatorType":"author"}],"tags":[],"title":"THE NEW GENEALOGY OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM","publicationTitle":"Journal of Law and Religion","pages":"3-41","volume":"33","abstractNote":"This article pursues an immanent critique of a scholarly movement and mood that I call “the new genealogy of religious freedom” and sketches an alternative proposal.

If you directly use the cambridge.org URL instead: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-law-and-religion/article/new-genealogy-of-religious-freedom/A76E3285DBD0EEF59A0EB82D4F4068E7

Here you can see that the correct translator is chosen in the second case, and that e.g. tags have been parsed correctly.

[adomasven]

This is not related to #49, but rather to how translation server handles DOI URLs by looking them up in various metadata databases instead of fetching and translating the DOI resource directly. This is done since most of the time it produces more accurate metadata.

[dstillman]

We’re going to be fixing this, though — web translation should try the actual URL before it falls back to a DOI in the URL.
