#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Capture the Salesbridges plastic-crates catalogue into raw/. Salesbridges runs on Lightspeed eCom (formerly SEOshop — the giveaway is cdn.webshopapp.com in the page source). Any Lightspeed storefront serves the same page as JSON if you append `?format=json`, both for a category: /en/products/plastic-crates/?format=json&limit=100 and for a single product: /en/eurobox-60x40x32-cm-open-handle-euro-container-clo.html?format=json The category payload has no `content` field, so the spec table — and with it the internal dimensions, which are the reason this vendor is in the dataset — only comes from the per-product fetch. Hence one request per product. This is the only script here that touches the network. Run it to refresh the snapshot; `build_listings.py` then reads the snapshot and never fetches anything, so a rebuild always reproduces the same table.
