A plugin to enable adding the Amazon Onelink to your Gridsome based website.
Amazon OneLink enables you to monetize traffic on your site from a number of different locales including United Kingdom (UK), Canada and Germany via Amazon's text links.
It will require you to register for a US based Amazon Associates.
Once you have registered your accounts for Amazon Onelink it will require you to place an additional script on your website. This is what this the Gridsome will enable you to do quickly as easily.
Open your terminal window in the root directory of your Gridsome project
npm i gridsome-plugin-amazon-onelink
Typically the Amazon Onelink script will look like as follows
<div id="amzn-assoc-ad-12345baa-12b1-123e-b123-a123c3b0b1e2"></div>
<script async
src="//z-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/onejs?MarketPlace=US&adInstanceId=12345baa-12b1-123e-b123-a123c3b0b1e2">
</script>
All you will need to do is extract the UUID i.e 12345baa-12b1-123e-b123-a123c3b0b1e2 and add it to your Environment variables using the name AMAZON_ONELINK
