Splaunchy

Version: 1.2

by: Cargor [More]

I've canceled my subscription! Still you can submit patches via GitHub, PM or eMail. If you want to take this addon over, please contact me - or feel free to fork it.

Splaunchy is a launcher for spells and interface parts, based on application launchers like LaunchBar, Quicksilver or Launchy. You open it in the middle of your screen, type in a few letters of your preferred action and then hit enter (twice) to launch it.

It remembers which actions you used most and tries to priorize them over others. There is also a new "quick navigation" built in that enables you to scroll through the list of results via the up- and down-arrow-keys.

Before getting started, you need to setup its key binding in the Bindings-window. Personally I'm using "CTRL + Space".

Default Modules

Spells: all your characters spells including trade skills
Language: switch between your character's languages
Companions: fetch out your pets and mounts
Panels: open UI panels, e.g. Character Pane or Help Pane
LDB Launchers: Access your databroker-launchers by name

Addon authors can register their own modules with Splaunchy to enable their own entries to be launched.

Planned Features

Tradeskill launching
Item launching
Different layouts
Module configuration

Frequently asked Questions
Why do I need to press Enter twice?
That's a limitation in the edit box: You need one press to get out of the input box and another one to press the button which holds your chosen action. But if you got enough routine, you shouldn't even notice that you pressed it twice.

Help, it doesn't work in combat!
Yep, since this launcher helps find the right spell for you, it doesn't work in combat. UI functions are disabled in combat too, due to the way the launching is handled.

Version 1.2
* display other results below the frame (default 5, adjust in core.lua)
* navigate with the tab-key between editbox and launch button
* new module: macros!
* last search text will now be displayed on re-opening
* companions and spells are now updated if new ones are learned

Version 1.1
* often typed entries now get a higher priority
* now matches also in the middle of the word, not only the beginning
* new module: databroker launchers!
* use arrow up/down to navigation through the results!

- fix: longer names no longer go over the frame border

Quick fix (works for me):

Code:

--- a/modules/spells.lua
+++ b/modules/spells.lua
@@ -3,8 +3,8 @@ local module = Splaunchy:RegisterModule("Spells")
 local function addSpellBook(type)
        local i = 1
        while true do
-               local name = GetSpellName(i, type)
-               local next = GetSpellName(i+1, type)
+               local name = GetSpellBookItemName(i, type)
+               local next = GetSpellBookItemName(i+1, type)
                if(not name) then break end
  
                if(not module.Indizes[name] and name ~= next and not IsPassiveSpell(i, type)) then

Generally, using inventory items should be possible, just have to look into it. But it's hard to tell if an item can be used, because I would have to scan the tooltip of every single item - but let's wait and see the result.

Another thing that comes to my mind is the feature of picking up spells and items from Splaunchy to place them on your actionbar or somewhere else, but I don't know how easy it is to achieve that.

It's real easy, look in the code of ncBindings, I have some buttons made in there which you can drag spells on and off, without it being an actual actionbutton.

Or did you fix that, and I missed it in the changelog? __________________ Play World of Warcraft Free from Windows!

Volux A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	What about the inventory? Is it possible to add it? I'm often looking for some things in there and don't found them. It would be great if I press enter to get it like clicking into the inventory. Or double-enter to use it (if possible).

Hmm, have to check that. I'm currently using COMPANIONS_LEARNED as the event.

Maybe right-click on the panel should trigger a manual update. Hooking events or checking with intervals would be more resource consuming anyway.

Rightclick is in so far a problem as the Blizzard_MacroUI is an internal addon, so it is no loaded initially and I can't hook it ... I would have to check when it is loaded (which brings us back to the intervals), or maybe I can hook the function when it is loaded.

xConStruct A Chromatic Dragonspawn Forum posts: 199 File comments: 374 Uploads: 18	The next version is almost ready, I just have to get tradeskills into it and find a way to reload the cache when spells or macros change (without a reloadui). EDIT: Decided to release the next version earlier because of a lot new features, although there are still some things missing. Tradeskills are deactivated, because it seems that there is a problem with getting the data on initial login. Macro-support is included, but you need a reload/relog to let your new ones show up - it seems like Blizz didn't provide an event when they are updated, so I need to figure out some hackish way around it. __________________ « Website \| GitHub » Oh hai!

Okay, well, to be honest, the only reason I still play WoW is because of addon development. The rest became boring after four years of active playing =P
And since I write them in my free time and also release them for free, there are of course the subscription fee's ... so if you want to support me, here's your chance!

And ... umm ... there's still the habit of eating lots of chocolate while thinking of addons :/
