in reply to How to pull author, title using ISBN (WWW::Scraper::ISBN)?

I don't think I can use this module :-( Is there any other way I can get books details using ISBN? Without using this module?

Error is:

$@: Error GETing https://isbn.nu/9780134511184: Protocol scheme 'https

+rlbrew/perls/perl-5.28.1/lib/site_perl/5.28.1/WWW/Scraper/ISBN/ISBNnu

I tried force installing the module LWP::Protocol::HTTPS & Net::SSLeay but it fails. The log file for installation shows error about a missing C header file:

    Is there any other way I can get books details using ISBN? Without using this module?

    Note that both databases are not complete, and both may contain some garbage data.

    Also note that ISBNs should be unique, but they are not. I have several pairs of books with different title, different author, different content, but identical ISBNs. It seems several publishers reuse ISBNs over time.

    Looks like Net::SSLeay is having trouble finding a compatible version of openssl - what operating system are you on?

      Thank you for your response bangor. I am on: 
      $ cat /etc/redhat-release

        In that case, the RPM you need is openssl-devel. Install that (or politely ask your sysadm to do it for you) as it includes the required headers.

        Did you get any further with this? First thing I would try is to install (or upgrade) openssl 
        yum install openssl

    The README lists prerequisites, you need the appropriate development package.
