I'm not able to reproduce this. Do you get this result when you use other search text?

Okay, this is weird.

I have Goodreads, Kindle US and Kindle UK set up in abs-tract

Looking at the logs, they all have the same ; in the URL sent to abs-tract

The two Kindle ones don't return any results in ABS, but Goodreads does.

If I take all three URL's, copy them and remove the ; then they all return results.

Hey! Yeah I am also having problems replicating this with ABS sadly 😞

The reason I think this is a (possible) ABS bug rather than to do with abs-tract, is that the lines printed are simply logs of exactly the requests made to the abs-stract server - which in theory means if that is what is being logged, the request is incorrectly being made.

Worth checking (although I believe it should have no impact), you mention you are running ABS using docker, and I assume you are running abs-tract using docker, but in the logs I see an IP address being used rather than a container name to connect them. Are you using a host network?

@nichwall commented on GitHub (Feb 22, 2025):

Is it possible that something between ABS and your abs-tract instance is changing the request to include a semicolon? In doing some research, it looks like older versions of reverse proxies and some server implementations may use a semicolon as the delimiter instead of an ampersand, so could be something rewriting the path?

If I take all three URL's, copy them and remove the ; then they all return results.

How did you test this? Was this through a browser or using something like curl?
curl -v "http://192.168.8.219:5555/kindle/uk/search?mediaType=book&query=Cujo&author=Stephen+King"

Either way, we should add logging of the actual query that ABS is generating to match the other provider debug printouts. I just opened https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/pull/4034 to add this logging.

I just copied the URL, pasted it into the browser, removed the ; and pressed enter. I then got a json response in my browser.

I'm not aware of anything that would mess with the request. I'm just confused as to why the Goodreads one works but the two Kindle ones don't.

They were working at one point back when I initially set up abs-tract a few months ago.

@Vito0912 commented on GitHub (Feb 23, 2025):

I just tested it with both Goodreads and Kindle using
https://provider.vito0912.de/kindle/uk and https://localhost:5555/kindle/uk, neither of which sent a ";".

I also got the error:

Error searching Custom provider 'custom-f2e3bf15-3ebd-4258-b724-f65d058c8e4f': Error: sanitizeHtml: input must be a string at Object.sanitize (/server/utils/htmlSanitizer.js:12:11) at /server/providers/CustomProviderAdapter.js:78:36 at Array.map (<anonymous>) at CustomProviderAdapter.search (/server/providers/CustomProviderAdapter.js:70:20) at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5) at async BookFinder.getCustomProviderResults (/server/finders/BookFinder.js:207:21) at async ApiRouter.findBooks (/server/controllers/SearchController.js:37:21)

I assume this is because my provider returns a 500 error most of the time for Kindle (because Amazon is Amazon). Goodreads works. However, when I enabled logging in my proxy, I saw that it sent the correct data, and since other custom providers work with parsing, I assume this will work too.

How did you add the provider in ABS? Perhaps there is a character that ABS does not expect which causes it to panic.

If you want, you could try using https://provider.vito0912.de/kindle/uk or https://provider.vito0912.de/goodreads with abs as the Auth value? I will enable logging/access log and check if ; is sent. Then we at least could sort out if this is something with your setup of abs-tract or/and abs.
Kindle will most likley not return anything

the provider is stripped from the logs, because of technical reasons
LGTM, so probably some issue with local networking or the abs-tract image you are running?

Given the interesting discussion and investigation in this issue, it might be worth highlighting my earlier question that I'm not sure got answered:

Worth checking (although I believe it should have no impact), you mention you are running ABS using docker, and I assume you are running abs-tract using docker, but in the logs I see an IP address being used that her than a container name to connect them. Are you using a host network?

I wonder if this could hold some key as to what is happening.

On side note, @Vito0912, I'm very interested in the fact you are not getting any results from kindle in abs-tract! It works really well for me without issue 🤔 Can you open an issue over in abs-stract for me with some logs? I'd be interested in looking into this. Many thanks 🙏

The servers IP I use has not a good enough reputation to make a connection. It's being blocked, because I use an VPN to route outgoing traffic for these providers

And you are using the docker version from GitHub/Docker (So not build from source or whatever)?

Maybe I am blind, but the query is generated in:

    // Setup query params
    const queryObj = {
      mediaType,
      query: title
    }
    if (author) {
      queryObj.author = author
    }
    if (isbn) {
      queryObj.isbn = isbn
    }
    const queryString = new URLSearchParams(queryObj).toString()

    const url = `${provider.url}/search?${queryString}`

and the ; is inserted between the paramaters. query is not modifiable, so the ; is at a place where it possibly shouldn't be able to be.

Even forcing a ;:

    const queryObj = {
      mediaType: "book&;",
      query: "title"
    }
    const queryString = new URLSearchParams(queryObj).toString()
    console.log(queryString)

produces an escaped version: mediaType=book%26%3B&query=title

I've been having the same issue using the windows deployment latest version. Kindle was working and then suddenly stopped being able to pull data on any books. I've got both versions of abs-tract running just to make sure.

Goodreads pulls with no issues.

Are you sure it is the same error or do you think it is the same error because Kindle does not work anymore?

For testing I also set up the same IP and port etc. as OP, but I cannot reproduce it

Yeah, probably. If you're willing to share the backup file or manually zip up the database found in /config that would be great @alexander-paterson . A DM or email with the download link would work best so you can share specifically with us without making it available publicly.

So i dont believe goodreads is the issue. Unless im mistaken here. There is something about the Kindle search that is breaking. It curls with no issue but when parsing on ABS it returns with no data. Where as good reads returns with no issue.

It would be helpful if you could check the logs to see if they show the same error or a different one. If it is the same error, could you share details about your setup? This way, we can identify similarities.

0.1.1 Returns limited goodreads data so thats why im also running 0.2.0

That would be something specific to abs-tract, then. Possibly related to the whole Kindle changing things so you can no longer copy files over USB or something. I saw talk of other things changing, but have not been following it myself so not sure if the API was affected

That would be something specific to abs-tract, then. Possibly related to the whole Kindle changing things so you can no longer copy files over USB or something. I saw talk of other things changing, but have not been following it myself so not sure if the API was affected

If that's the case wouldn't curl break as well?

I can absolutely take it over to ABS-Tract. From the issues i saw raised over there it seemed hit and miss being the same issue.

Usually i tend to just look for other peoples solutions before bringing up my own but maybe in this case my hatred of Calibre has led me to be solo in this particular circumstance? My love of ABS and all the work you guys have put into it made me want to keep everything central to that.

The error you encounter is an error if (I think it was description) field is not filled and the function therefore crashes. abs-tract probably does not provide that data. Could you share a test response that you get via curl?

@nichwall I can't look that much into it yet, but I think this actually might be a bug from abs if the description field is not provided (I currently do not have the code infornt of me. Just a thought that came to me)

I tested using

curl --request GET \
    --url "http://192.168.0.183:5555/kindle/us/search?mediaType=book&query=The+Hobbit&author=J.R.R.+Tolkein"

and

curl --request GET \
    --url "http://192.168.0.183:5555/kindle/us/search?mediaType=book&query=The+Hobbit&author=J.R.R.+Tolkein" | jq

The error i get in ABS when i parse is

[2025-03-04 11:17:33.599] ERROR: Error searching Custom provider 'custom-45e59805-84d9-4803-871a-e978590ae062': Error: sanitizeHtml: input must be a string

im not sure how its handled but if description is needed then i can see why it would fail

sanitizeHtml: input must be a string

I would image it falls more on abs-tract than ABS if that is the case but im not sure.

Sorry, I meant the result you get using curl, not abs. I didn't make this very clear.
So just the json output you get with your first or second request

This supports my suspicion. If that's the case and I can reproduce it, I'll make a PR to fix it.

Yeah, I agree that it is probably a missing description. Can we move that discussion to a new issue so this remains focused on the semicolon being added?

I believe it was narrowed down to being something in the routing setup, but nothing definitive was found.

The logs from ABS do not show the semicolon being added, but the semicolon is present when the request is received by abs-tract.

Because I just read this again.

That's not the case. If it were, then this would be 100% due to a misconfigured proxy.

Apologies for reviving this - I've read the replies but I'm still not clear if ABS has resolved this issue.

As the author of abs-tract, is there anything I can do to help? If we can't figure out where the ; is coming from, maybe I could just do some handling my side. This is obviously not the preferred solution, but if it's required to resolve this, then I guess I can see what I can do.

If I helps at all, I have had another issue opened about this, and the issue seems to imply it only occurs on quick match. Maybe this could help replication, as I know people were having trouble recreating it?
