Battle.net WebApp to calculate blood of sargeras vendor values

A World of Warcraft webapp that helps players determine the best value for their bloods of sargeras and primal sargerite on their realm.

Quickstart

1. Compile blood-money
2. Make an account on https://dev.battle.net/ and generate an API key
3. Run blood-money <api key> (us|eu)
4. Look at http://localhost:3000/blood-money or http://localhost:3001/blood-money-eu depending on how blood-money was launched.

Todo

• Read token from config (or stick with commandline?)
• Move these println's into a real logging system.
• Save data between runs and use it when bringing the service back up.
• The threading model is presently fairly serial and could be improved such that it was hurt less by stragglers or one buggy realm.
• There's definitely some major CPU usage when the download is running. Possibly some dumb deserialization issue or sorting.
• We should probably move most of the work to the background thread and make the web thread just essentially take a reader lock and clone some Arc's
• Add some more crafting options now that we have the infrastructure for that.

Things that we might get to if this became more serious:

• Currently does not respect changes in realm lists. Requires a restart to handle those changes.
• Re-implement the battle_net_api_client into something robust: Use a modern version of hyper (means working with futures), flesh out all the method calls, move it into a lib.
• Re-implement on rocket.rs instead of iron.

blood-money's Issues

Compact approach to output

Hello,

I saw your project on wowhead today and followed it bit, as you noted you are not well with CSS, I wanted to step forward and help you on the html output. You can look at my past from my profile. I`m still learning the RUST at this stage (very basics of it compile - run on web server etc...).

What I`m offering (suggesting) is to make more compact view so it wont take ages to scroll down. Also I can make it responsive so it will be mobile ready.

This is my very first draft (direct HTML edit on your page so bars are just went all the way down due to flex view).

Let me know if this version is fine enough, thanks for the handy web-app.

No russian realms :<

Could you please add ru region to the list?

Primal Sargerite

It would be a pretty good addition to support the recently added Primal Sargerite vendor aswell.
