website with shopping channels history

Anyone know of a website that lets you search for items posted on the shopping channels?

Aojunkyard.com used to do that but it's down now. I've been looking for another one for quite a while. I need one that lets you search by name. That is key, and that's why I can't use arpa3.net.

You can check out http://www.rubi-ka.com/m.asp, very beta, and only remembers last 1000 posts. Oh, and only RK1 so far
Edit: And only 11-50, havent had time to level up the bots to 100+ :P

**JungleGeorgeRK2** · Mar 4th, 2011, 03:19:40

Here is a site for Rimor RK2 http://tlfiveplus.com/shopping/. It located in Borealis with 11-50 channels and Neutnet

hmm both those look nice. i wanna write a bot module to query those so u can get the results in game. do either of you know the owners of those websites?

**DocJones** · Mar 4th, 2011, 08:02:01

Idef/Irmp is host admin and coder for tlfiveplus modules. go, create an account on tlfiveplus and PM him there. I am sure he will help you out.

**Ukblizzard** · Mar 4th, 2011, 14:31:02

Zajin (Novagen) is the owner of his http://www.rubi-ka.com website

I could probably make my multi-bot client generate a xml file with that sort of information.

**Tyrence1** · Mar 4th, 2011, 18:44:23

Tbh I have no preference where it comes from. I can parse the html without too much hassle so that's not an issue, but xml would be a little easier. The biggest thing tho is having one site that does it for both dimensions. Otherwise I'd basically have to write two separate modules and I don't really wanna do that. Any volunteers for that?

**Maxisolja** · Mar 5th, 2011, 05:32:15

slapped this together real fast

http://losobie.com/bots/shopping.php

server probably wont be running for long, but I can give ya all the source code

I can change the filter on the fly, just logging every shopping channel on rk1/rk2 at borialis and limiting the php page to last 100 entries

http://arpa3.net/anarchy-online/

has a very up to date list of items sold via shop-channel clan/omni/neut with dates and name!

**Tyrence1** · Mar 5th, 2011, 19:24:03

arpa3.net is nice but it doesn't have a search by name feature so I can't use it for this.

**JungleGeorgeRK2** · Mar 6th, 2011, 03:25:31

I use arpa3.net as well but it lacks all WTB requests, history for most items, any scripted WTS, and neutnet from rk2. However its roll factors, web page prompt to update when new items are available, more option, and a probably a few other items make it useful.

**Novagen** · Mar 6th, 2011, 16:16:54

use can use http://www.rubi-ka.com/market/market.php to get the data the page is showing
append the following to the querystring to filter the results

get json instead of html
mode=json
(jsonp can be used too, in that case you need to set callback=yourcallbackfunction aswell)

filter on omni = 0, clan = 1 or neutral = 2
side=

Selling = 0, Buying = 1
type=

Search for string
q=

No support for xml yet.

This is perfect for what I need. The only thing that is missing is it needs to be able to work for both dimensions. If you can set it up for both dimensions, I will write a module to use it.

EDIT: Also, it would be nice if there was an option to leave the item refs as they were posted instead of converting to auno.org links. Because converting them back will require a lookup for the lowid.

**Novagen** · Mar 7th, 2011, 15:49:26

In the progress of leveling some bots on RK2 so that will be rolling soon.

server=
Select what server to show (0 = RK1, 1 = RK2, yeah not much logic here

)

noconvert=1
disable conversion to xyphos-links

limit=
if you want to limit the number of results you get

**Novagen** · Mar 7th, 2011, 16:24:03

Think I got a quick ouput for XML done too if you need that
mode=xml

**Tyrence1** · Mar 7th, 2011, 19:09:31

perfect

I will start writing the module for it.

I want to give you and your website credit since you are doing the hard part of this.

I'll put whatever you want but this is what I came up with: "Search results provided by www.rubi-ka.com - Zajin (RK1)"

EDIT: "Select what server to show (0 = RK1, 1 = RK2, yeah not much logic here )" Would it be possible to have 1 = RK1 and 2 = RK2?

**Tyrence1** · Mar 7th, 2011, 21:27:35

You can do /tell feedbackbot !wtb 'name' to see this in action. It'll work on either dimension but for now it always returns results for RK1.

**Hvyshadows** · Mar 7th, 2011, 21:45:22

Very nice indeed. I'm assuming it's only going to work for references dropped in the shopping channel?

**Tyrence1** · Mar 7th, 2011, 22:17:40

No, if someone does "WTS combined officer ql 75 set" and you enter 'officer' as the search term, you will see it in the search results. At least that is how zajin has it now.
