only absolute urls are supported about unfurl

[jacktuck]

Just took a very quick look and it appears that website provides an external, relative, link to oembed data.

<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml+oembed" href="./../../../../wp-json/oembed/1.0/embed/index.html?url=.%2F2018%2F04%2F25%2Fthe-winner-take-all-world-of-dental-reviews%2F&#038;format=xml" />

So I think you've uncovered a few issues:

• We should detect and translate relative urls into absolute ones
• If an additional lookup for external oembed data fails we shouldn't throw an error because that will mean we can't provide the data which we did manage to pick up such as meta description / title
• Since we don't handle XML we shouldn't even try to get this data if we know it'll give us xml back

I'll tackle these sometime over the coming days or i'm more than happy to accept a PR if you want to dig around :)

Thanks for reporting 👍

Actively looking at this just struggling to find time.

Hi @shaunc869

This should be fixed in the latest major prerelease. You can get it under the beta tag: npm install unfurl.js@beta for now. Schema has changed quite a lot from 1.x.x so you will probably want to give the docs another look.

Nice find btw

It's still a WIP so schema can change in prerelease versions. For instance, keywords there should probably be an array rather than a string!

EDIT:
keywords is fixed now and will be an array

Please ping me if you notice anything else :)
