| 17:51.53 | Trigma_0094 | hello; I had a question about the getall feature of auctioneer |
| 17:52.19 | Trigma_0094 | is it working at the moment? and if so how does it work exactly? |
| 17:52.44 | RockSlice | it's working for most people |
| 17:52.57 | Trigma | i tried messaging rothmic btw |
| 17:53.02 | Trigma | no response yet |
| 17:53.31 | Trigma | but regardless could you explain getall to me perhaps? I can't find any information on it in the wiki. |
| 17:53.35 | RockSlice | the way it works is it adds a "getall" flag to the end of the QueryAuctionItems() call. This tells the server to return the entire AH as one page |
| 17:54.15 | RockSlice | you can only do a getall every 15 minutes, but that resets when you logout (reloadui isn't enough) |
| 17:54.26 | Trigma | interesting |
| 17:54.31 | Trigma | and how does it display that page? |
| 17:54.38 | Trigma | or where does it record the data to |
| 17:54.48 | RockSlice | on the browse panel, like any regular page |
| 17:55.10 | RockSlice | it just shows 10k-30k auctions instead of the usual 50 |
| 17:55.17 | Trigma | ok |
| 17:55.28 | Trigma | but otherwise its just like a normal auction scan? |

| 17:56.55 | *** part/#norganna testlek (n=Chris@sp1.speediwifi.com) |
| 18:05.42 | Trigma | theres no external way to view the results of a getall scan right? |

| 18:06.36 | Trigma | well like in a file outside of WoW |
| 18:07.04 | RockSlice | nope. not unless you query it ingame and put in a SavedVariable |
| 18:07.27 | Trigma | could you explain that? |
| 18:08.42 | ccox | not unless you have a while to learn Lua and the WoW APIs |
| 18:09.35 | Trigma | well |
| 18:09.43 | Trigma | truthfully i have a couple of months on my hands |
| 18:10.41 | Trigma | youre basically saying I'd have to be able to read the .lua file? |
| 18:12.58 | Trigma | if the end result is a file in which I can read the results of a getall scan |
| 18:13.08 | Trigma | I would be willing to learn whatever I have to |

| 18:30.15 | wrabhit | fair enough |

| 19:31.39 | Trigma | hmm it seems that getall keeps d/c'ing me although I understand that this is a recognized problem...but assuming I could get it to work could someone tell me how I could save/view that in a saved variable folder even if it's difficult to interpret? |
| 19:31.55 | Trigma | that being the result of the getall scan |
| 19:33.07 | Hirsute | It's stored in the same place as any other scan. |
| 19:33.21 | Hirsute | The snapshot is in Auc-Scandata.lua |
| 19:33.26 | RockSlice | first, when creating/testing an addon that does a getall, disable all other addons. Some might silently gather some data from auction pages and aren't set up to handle a getall |
| 19:33.49 | Hirsute | The statistical information is in Auc-Stat-*.lua files |
| 19:34.20 | RockSlice | next, in your toc, you'll need to specify a SavedVariable name, or SavedVariablePerCharacter |
| 19:35.04 | RockSlice | those will be written on logout in WTF\Account\<you>\SavedVariable\<youaddonname>.lua |
| 19:35.51 | RockSlice | or WTF\Account\<you>\<server>\<character>\SavedVariable\<youaddonname>.lua |
| 19:38.19 | Trigma | so in this case its auc_adv.lua right? |
| 19:38.27 | Trigma | and the results for the scan are somewhere in there? |
| 19:38.49 | RockSlice | for Auc-Advanced, it's auc-advanced.lua |
| 19:38.56 | Trigma | alright |
| 19:38.59 | RockSlice | you're talking about creating your own, right? |
| 19:39.11 | Trigma | ah no I wasn't actually |
| 19:39.16 | RockSlice | oh |
| 19:39.16 | Trigma | that would be much beyond me for now |
| 19:39.28 | RockSlice | then use the /aadv getall |
| 19:39.35 | Trigma | right I did that |
| 19:40.29 | Trigma | if I go to that auc-scandata.lua that hirsute mentioned can i see the results from that scan then? |
| 19:41.49 | RockSlice | are you going to be looking at this manually or parsing it with a script? |
| 19:42.37 | Trigma | well for the time being I guess I'm looking at it manually |
| 19:42.51 | Trigma | ideally it would be parsed |
| 19:43.12 | Trigma | but auctiondb seems to be the only program that does that at this time |
| 19:43.28 | Trigma | and it doesn't show individual items only averages |
| 19:43.51 | RockSlice | in auc-advanced.lua, look for AucAdvancedData, then go to the ["Scandata"] section of that |
| 19:44.55 | Trigma | odd the file seems to be mostly empty |
| 19:45.17 | RockSlice | in WTF\Account\<you>\SavedVariable\ ? |
| 19:45.23 | RockSlice | did you log out? |
| 19:45.47 | Trigma | yes |
| 19:45.54 | Trigma | perhaps I'm looking at the wrong file though |
| 19:46.05 | Trigma | auc-advanced.lua |
| 19:46.40 | Trigma | ah actually |
| 19:46.47 | Trigma | it was working before i believe |
| 19:47.00 | Trigma | I d/c'd during my last scan I don't know if that would create a problem |
| 19:47.14 | RockSlice | that would |
| 19:47.41 | Trigma | on a separate note the buy prices that auctioneerdb displays are they buyout prices listed or the prices items are actually bought at (or at least we assume they were bought at) |
| 19:47.44 | Trigma | and that makes sense |
| 19:48.05 | RockSlice | no clue. auctioneerdb is a third-party program |
| 19:48.23 | Trigma | ok fair enough |
| 19:49.04 | RockSlice | my guess is buyout (or bid if no buyout), as the Auc-DB module doesn't track removals, which is needed to detect actual purchases |
| 19:50.07 | Trigma | right |
| 19:52.02 | RockSlice | the image is also in auc-scandata, but it's in a compressed format (all one string), so it's not very human-friendly |
| 19:55.44 | Trigma | ah |
| 19:55.55 | Trigma | there would be no way to create a different image for each scan would there? |
| 19:56.14 | Trigma | well i guess the scans are differentiated somehow anyway |
| 19:57.54 | Trigma | looking at auc-scandata seems to give a string of data as well but is that different from auc-advanced.lua? |
| 19:57.57 | RockSlice | you could create a module that would store each processing sweep separately, as every auction seen sends a processing flag to the modules |
| 19:58.16 | RockSlice | however, it would get very memory-intensive |
| 19:58.26 | Trigma | and rather technical I would imagine |
| 19:58.53 | RockSlice | true |
| 20:00.07 | RockSlice | though it wouldn't be difficult |
| 20:00.50 | Trigma | presumably the data would still be in a non-human friendly format though right? |
| 20:01.11 | RockSlice | you could form it into any way you want |
| 20:01.36 | Trigma | right |
| 20:01.58 | RockSlice | each item gets sent separately, so you could store that table as a comma-separated string |
| 20:02.26 | RockSlice | then, in your image table, you'd have one line for each auction |
| 20:02.34 | Trigma | ahh that makes sense it's pretty much how auctionscan worked |
| 20:02.49 | RockSlice | it would potentially be very easy to import directly into excel |
| 20:03.07 | Trigma | right I've done that with auc classic |
| 20:05.12 | Trigma | basically it just read the scandata file...I guess the only alteration I could imagine that would be useful would be to create a separate .lua file with each scan |
| 20:05.17 | Trigma | which you seem to think could be feasible |
| 20:05.42 | RockSlice | not a separate .lua file |
| 20:06.33 | Trigma | what were you referring to earlier then? |
| 20:06.42 | RockSlice | but you could have a module called "Auc-Util-Export", which stores everything in the table AucAdvExport, in the auc-util-export.lua file |
| 20:07.11 | RockSlice | each processing cycle could have its own entry in AucAdvExport |
| 20:07.37 | Trigma | huh |
| 20:08.17 | RockSlice | so to get to a specific auction seen in a specific processing cycle, you could look at AucAdvExport[scanID][auctionID] |
| 20:08.53 | RockSlice | scanID might be something as simple as the timestamp when your module gets told the processing has started |
| 20:09.26 | RockSlice | you'd obviously need to keep purging old data, but that would be fairly simple |
| 20:09.29 | Trigma | so by the different scanID's I would know which auction came from which scan |
| 20:09.36 | Trigma | right |
| 20:09.45 | RockSlice | which auction was seen in which scanID |
| 20:09.54 | Trigma | ok makes sense |
| 20:10.12 | RockSlice | however, the auctionID wouldn't necessarily match up between scans |
| 20:10.12 | Trigma | how would I go about doing this then...is there a program I should download? |
| 20:10.32 | RockSlice | some good texteditor. I use Notepad++ |
| 20:10.48 | Trigma | the auctionID being representative of the item name? |
| 20:11.07 | RockSlice | the auctionID just being a basic index |
| 20:11.21 | Trigma | ok |
| 20:11.39 | Trigma | but theres no auc-util-export.lua file at the moment correct? |
| 20:12.06 | RockSlice | or you could just use the Auc-DB addon by itself :) |
| 20:12.34 | RockSlice | though that still puts the entire image on one line |
| 20:12.38 | Trigma | except for the fact that it doesn't seem to take acutal purchases into account right? |
| 20:13.11 | RockSlice | well, if you want to track purchases, you need to do some comparison between scans |
| 20:13.34 | Trigma | and what would be the best way to do that I guess |
| 20:14.10 | RockSlice | or use the "delete" scanprocessor event, and check timestamps |
| 20:15.07 | Trigma | my technological know how seems to be falling a little short here |
| 20:15.26 | Trigma | so I apologize if I don't understand everything that you're saying... |
| 20:15.44 | Trigma | but could you explain that in simpler terms perhaps? |
| 20:15.48 | RockSlice | During the processing, AucAdv calls each module's lib.ScanProcessors[<event>] |
| 20:16.27 | RockSlice | where event is "begin", "leave", "update", "create", "delete", or "complete" |
| 20:17.04 | *** join/#norganna Diskmaster (n=YOURFACE@CPE-76-85-147-197.neb.res.rr.com) |
| 20:17.08 | Trigma | ok |
| 20:17.09 | RockSlice | begin and complete don't pass an itemtable, as they are flags for the start and end of processing |
| 20:17.40 | RockSlice | "leave" means it was in the snapshot already, and nothing has changed |
| 20:18.17 | RockSlice | "update" means something about the auction has changed (eg timeleft, or there's now a seller name) |
| 20:19.15 | Trigma | alright |
| 20:19.18 | RockSlice | "create" means a new auction, and "delete" means an auction that used to exist, but doesn't now |
| 20:20.11 | RockSlice | most stats only track "create", but stat-purchased tracks "delete" instead, checking that it couldn't have expired before storing data on it |
| 20:21.36 | Trigma | alright so I just need to look at what stat-purchased has to say about what's been deleted but not expired? |
| 20:21.51 | RockSlice | yes |
| 20:22.18 | RockSlice | though I don't know exactly what data you want, so stat-purchased might not have what you want |
| 20:22.42 | Trigma | well |
| 20:22.59 | Trigma | even if it doesn't have everything between that and everything auctioneerdb offers that should be sufficient |
| 20:23.48 | Trigma | huh the file seems empty again but I guess I can chalk that up to the d/c? |
| 20:24.13 | RockSlice | how often have you been scanning? |
| 20:25.00 | Trigma | ah well I'm just getting started so probably not often enough for it to collect purchase data...that would make sense |
| 20:25.43 | Trigma | but if I do start scanning frequently then that file should tell me whats been sold right? |
| 20:26.21 | RockSlice | right. and purchase needs frequent scans. As any auction in the biggest timeleft category could expire after 12h, scanning every 13h for 2 years will still result in an empty stat-purchased file |
| 20:26.38 | Trigma | haha |
| 20:27.11 | Trigma | ah because I guess its that whole conservative estimation part you were talking about earlier |
| 20:27.21 | RockSlice | right |
| 20:27.54 | Trigma | the page does have a short string that mentions only magtheridon even though I've run scans on multiple servers |
| 20:28.06 | Trigma | but I'm guessing that if I perform frequent scans on multiple servers |
| 20:28.09 | Trigma | theyll all apprea? |
| 20:28.13 | Trigma | *appear |
