Streetmerchant: Regression: Generate links for all stores

[jef]

Description

Currently, when streetmerchant starts up, links are generated for various stores. This behavior shouldn't happen if the user doesn't use those stores.

Refs:

• https://github.com/jef/streetmerchant/issues/683
• https://github.com/jef/streetmerchant/issues/691#issuecomment-722660867

Possible solution

Make sure only links are generated for stores selected.

@jef I was able to get the develop branch searching again by disabling the amazon-uk store, there only seems to be three link entries in there (one test and two ps5 sony), it was causing a hang after displaying "Failed to parse card: PNY GeForce ..." error line.

Yeah, this is part of the regression of building links. I haven't spent anytime working on it, but should be fixed in the near future! Thanks for the comment, it will be helpful.

Is there a workaround available for this? I have not been able to use streetmerchant for a few days because of this issue. I just get a
"failed to parse..." error and the application stops.

@taefighter do a git pull on main, i haven't had a problem since Friday with the latest code

This regression does not prohibit the app from running at all. It just slows down and shows errors at startup.

Thank you for letting me know. I am still getting the parsing error at startup. However, what @jef said tells me I wasn't giving the app enough time to process. I am leaving it running for a while to see if it will work past the errors at the start. Thank you!
