## [3.3.0]
### Adds

end
```
## [3.2.1]

## [3.2.0]
### Adds
Makes scrapers configurable by allowing to set the scraping strategy:

config.scrapers = [:opengraph, :default]
end
```
`opengraph` use the [Open Graph Protocol](http://ogp.me/).
`default` use a homemade algorithm
## [3.1.2]
### Adds
Allows to customize ideal description length
Pass the :ideal_description_length option to the Graders::Length initializer to customize
the ideal description length of a website. In the rails initializer:
```ruby
LinkThumbnailer.configure do |config|
config.graders = [
->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::Length.new(description, ideal_description_length: 500) },
->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::HtmlAttribute.new(description, :class) },
->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::HtmlAttribute.new(description, :id) },
->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::Position.new(description, weigth: 3) },
->(description) { ::LinkThumbnailer::Graders::LinkDensity.new(description) },
]
end
```
Will default to `120` characters. More information about how the gem manage to find the best description can be found at
http://www.codeids.com/2015/06/27/how-to-find-best-description-of-a-website-using-linkthumbnailer/
## [3.1.1]
### Fixes
- Fixes https://github.com/gottfrois/link_thumbnailer/issues/69
### Changes
- Upgrade `video_info` gem
## [3.1.0]
### Fixes
- Fix an issue when image sizes could not be retrieved.
### Adds
- Grapers now accepts an optional parameter to customize the weigth of the grader in the probablity computation.
```ruby
LinkThumbnailer::Graders::Position.new(description, weigth: 3)
```
Will give a 3 times more weigth to the `Position` grader compare to other graders.
By default all graders have a weigth of `1` except the above position grader since position should play a bigger role in
order to find good description candidates.
