Unable to find new packager codes with API

[A1CY0N]

What

• I'm using the python library to connect to the api and some existing packer codes don't appear when you get the list of packer codes here
• I have opened Unable to find my packager code with get_packaging_codes() openfoodfacts-python#66 but I think it's more of a server issue.

Reproduction steps

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to https://world.openfoodfacts.org/product/6842420174016/chocolat
2. The packaging code is EMB 07113Y
3. Go to https://world.openfoodfacts.org/packager-codes or http://world.openfoodfacts.org/packager-codes.json
4. EMB 07113Y packaging code doesn't exist

Number of products impacted

I have noticed this on several recently added products

Part of

• Packager codes (Tracker) #5508

on the web site, it's probably not in the first 10000 results, and just on another page.
it shows up for https://world.openfoodfacts.org/packager-codes?filter=7113 (or even https://world.openfoodfacts.org/packager-codes?filter=emb ).
can't speak for the api/python library though.

Indeed, it seems that the python library should only get the first 10000 results. The filter option is very interesting but I don't think it's implemented in the library.

Unfortunately, the filter option is not available on the api : https://world.openfoodfacts.org/packager-codes.json?filter=emb

I had look through the server code, and it looks like adding a json=anything parameter is an alternative to the .json extension.

openfoodfacts-server/lib/ProductOpener/Display.pm

Lines 585 to 588 in 08a94fc

	# API calls may request JSON, JSONP or XML by appending .json, .jsonp or .xml at the end of the query string
	# .jqm returns results in HTML specifically formatted for the OFF mobile app (which uses jquerymobile)
	# for calls to /cgi/ actions (e.g. search.pl), the format can also be indicated with a parameter &json=1 &jsonp=1 &xml=1 &jqm=1
	# (or ?json=1 if it's the first parameter)

And https://world.openfoodfacts.org/packager-codes?filter=emb&json=1 does indeed seem to do the trick.
