Implementation Reference

• index.ts:428-597 (handler)

  The primary handler function that implements the core logic of the 'airbnb_listing_details' tool. It constructs the Airbnb listing URL with optional check-in/out dates and guest counts, respects robots.txt rules, fetches the page HTML, parses the embedded JSON data, filters specific sections (location, policies, highlights, description, amenities), and returns a JSON object with the listing details.

  async function handleAirbnbListingDetails(params: any) {
    const {
      id,
      checkin,
      checkout,
      adults = 1,
      children = 0,
      infants = 0,
      pets = 0,
      ignoreRobotsText = false,
    } = params;
  
    const listingUrl = new URL(`${BASE_URL}/rooms/${id}`);
    
    if (checkin) listingUrl.searchParams.append("check_in", checkin);
    if (checkout) listingUrl.searchParams.append("check_out", checkout);
    
    const adults_int = parseInt(adults.toString());
    const children_int = parseInt(children.toString());
    const infants_int = parseInt(infants.toString());
    const pets_int = parseInt(pets.toString());
    
    const totalGuests = adults_int + children_int;
    if (totalGuests > 0) {
      listingUrl.searchParams.append("adults", adults_int.toString());
      listingUrl.searchParams.append("children", children_int.toString());
      listingUrl.searchParams.append("infants", infants_int.toString());
      listingUrl.searchParams.append("pets", pets_int.toString());
    }
  
    const path = listingUrl.pathname + listingUrl.search;
