BuyDropper  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

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.

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

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.

Position of of the drag and drop Icon

Hi Cogwheel,
could you please move the Icon and the Text for the drag and drop function to the left?
At the moment it collides with the Icon of Auto-Profit.
Thanks and respect for your addon

It's in the works... I've been somewhat distracted by CogsBar recently, but I have made some progress... I posted some updates on my portal (click the portal button under the big download button above).

The holidays didn't help me get any work done either...

Ok... I've scheduled some "alone time" with my addons this weekend. I will try my hardest to get a working v1 uploaded soon.

Update: that worked out pretty well. I now have nearly all the vital functionality except the actual purchasing of the items. I should have a beta available by the end of this week.

The first beta release will be a fully-functional replacement for FreeRefills in that all its functionality will be available through slash commands. However, the GUI will be somewhat limited. The dropper will still appear on the vendor windows and the left half of the options window will work correctly. However, the right half (with the list of items you are tracking and various operations like clearing the list, changing priorities, etc.) is not yet finished.

You can now enable the purchase of items by uncommenting the section in BuyDropperEngine.lua starting on line 275 (it's fairly self-explanatory).

To clarify, you need to put two closing brackets at the end of line 275 of BuyDropperEngine.lua. The line should look like this after the change:

Code:
--[[ Put closing comment brackets at the end of this line to allow purchases ]]

I download this yesterday and I think it has great potential. Awesome Idea. I noticed one thing, the dropper area to drag the item to is underneath the icon from another mod I use called junk. This is a sell your junk type mod. I was still able to use the dropper because its slightly bigger than the Junk button. Is there a way I can mod the lua to move the default location of the dropper?

Everything seems to work fine, I used it a couple times to by water. I will post any errors I come across them.

Love both BuyEmAll and this mod, keep up the great work. Also enjoyed your interview with Bovi.
