BuyDropper

Version: 1.5b

by: ellira, Myster

Hi! I talked with Cogwheel, and got the development of the Buydropper project transferred over. I plan to start working on updating it over the next few weeks so, if anyone has any features requests/bug reports, please contact me via PM or comments on this addon. I'll update this page with the plans and roadmap I have for Buydropper shortly, when I 've had the time to play around with it a bit.

BuyDropper

By Cogwheel — v0.9B5
Inspired by FreeRefills by Kyahx

BuyDropper keeps a list of items to purchase automatically from vendors.

Please visit Cogwheel’s Workshop for updates, bug reports, feature requests, etc.

Guide

Managing your list

Adding items

The first thing you’ll want to do is add an item to BuyDropper’s tracking list. This can be done in two easy ways. By default, every vendor window has a dropper in the upper right and there is also a dropper on BuyDropper’s options window. Simply drag and drop an item onto one of these droppers and a window will appear where you can enter the amount you want to track. When you click Accept or press Enter, BuyDropper will print a message showing the item and quantity added to the list.

The other way to add items is the /buydropper add command. This duality of GUI/slash commands is seen throughout BuyDropper’s operations. For the rest of the guide, I will focus on the GUI aspects. You can use the Reference below to discover how to use the various commands.

[TODO: Rest of the documentation. For now, take a look at /buydropper options and the Reference below]

Reference

These are all the slash commands available from BuyDropper. Typing /buydropper (or /bd) will show this list of commands. Sub-commands are displayed when you enter the main command with no options. E.g. /buydropper vendor will display all the sub-commands of vendor.

addstack

Usage: /buydropper addstack <item link> <number of stacks>

Adds an item to the bottom of your tracking list or changes the amount of an item you are already tracking.

add

Usage: /buydropper add <item link> <amount>

Adds an item to the bottom of your tracking list or changes the amount of an item you are already tracking.

To use this command, type /buydropper add with a space after it. Now shift-click any item at a vendor, in your backpack, on your character, etc. Add another space, and type in the amount of the item you want to track.

list

Usage: /buydropper list

Lists the items you are currently tracking in order of descending priority.

del

Usage: /buydropper del <item link>

Removes the item at the specified priority from your tracking list.

resetall

Usage: /buydropper resetall

Clears all items from your list. A confirmation will appear to make sure you mean it.

Add something to its list (i.e. 40 Sacred Candles). Go to a reagent vendor and open his window. Nothing happens. Took a look at today's log notes for the updated FreeRefills (r79), which could be a reason BuyDropper is currently dead: Solves problems with itemlink format changes as of 3.0 - as soon as you ding, your new links no longer match the old ones, leading to "del" operations failing, and "add" operations adding multiple entries of the same item rather than changing old ones. I have leveled, but after the problem first appeared, I deleted BuyDropper's old saved variables and started over. Same issue, it doesn't buy anything. Hope to see this back working soon.

On my level 70 shaman, I told it to buy 10 Ankhs, but it never purchases them. Buy from Vendors and Confirm Purchase are both enabled. No errors or anything. I'm quite stumped.

Huh... I'll take a look. Thanks.

I hope to have this working once again in the near future. Some of the built-in UI features this addon takes advantage of were changed, and it's breaking BuyDropper in quite a few places. It'll probably take me a while just to figure out where I need to go with it, especially since I haven't had a chance to look at any of this code for over a year.

I've tried to just wait until you got around to it, and to go awhile without coming back and requesting yet again, but... I noticed you updated BuyEmAll, so I thought I'd just toss this in... If you're gonna patch this to WotLK, could you perhaps throw that in? The bit about limited quantity support, for instance Aquadynamic Fish Attractor? Thanks in advance! (Or tell me where to put the code from the previous reply, I never knew what to do with that.) __________________ “I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.” — Bilbo Baggins, from his speech on his eleventy-first birthday.

i`m write small addon for Auto-buying some stuff. Also work with limited stuff.

Code:

function AutoStuff:BuyVendorItem(pName, count, countTo)
	if MerchantFrame:IsVisible() then
		for i = GetMerchantNumItems(), 1, -1 do
		local name, tex, price, qty, available, usable = GetMerchantItemInfo(i);
		local NPCNameBuy = UnitName("target");
			if name == pName then
				BuyMerchantItem(i, available);
				DoEmote("cheer");
			end
		end
	end
	return false
end

Thortok2000 A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 3 File comments: 367 Uploads: 3	Just stopping by to say the support for limited supply items would totally rock. ^_^ Also, for ammo, I wish there was a way to set 'fill the quiver with the best ammo I can use' or something so you don't have to constantly reset the settings based on ammo type, level, quiver size...but that's probably beyond the scope of the mod so don't worry about it. __________________ “I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.” — Bilbo Baggins, from his speech on his eleventy-first birthday.
