rfd-affiliate-stripper
Strips affiliate redirects from deal links posted on RFD.
On every page load, it transforms a link with tracking such as
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.ca%2Fdp%2FB09YXY3DKN%3Fref%3Dcm_sw_r_apan_dp_NX4HJ8HZ3XX2YK1J900A%26ref_%3Dcm_sw_r_apan_dp_NX4HJ8HZ3XX2YK1J900A%26social_share%3Dcm_sw_r_apan_dp_NX4HJ8HZ3XX2YK1J900A%26starsLeft%3D1%26skipTwisterOG%3D1&tag=redflagdealsc-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=15121&creative=330641
into
https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B09YXY3DKN
Why?
This helps navigate around broken links when using certain adblockers.
Building the extension
To build the extension, run:
npm install
npm run build
Updating redirects
The browser extension will update the list of redirects by periodically fetching the latest redirects.json.
Open a pull request to this repo to update the redirects.
An easy way to test regex: regex101.com.
New config can be tested by pointing the config url of the extension to your own branch.
For example:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/davegallant/rfd-affiliate-stripper/my-new-branch/redirects.json
Tampermonkey Script
This was originally a Tampermonkey userscript before evolving into a browser extension.
To use as a tampermonkey script, copy script.js into Tampermonkey.
