EverQuest Map Viewer With Detailed Statistics

cartographer's Issues

core.async/concurrent scrape

Investigate methods for concurrent url fetching to speed up data grabs. Useful for future/side projects.

Fill SQL Tables

NPC, Faction, and NPC/Faction Relationship tables created. Now they need to be populated with data.
Time to scour the wiki.

C# Alternative

Perhaps look into continuing this project in C# to create overlay windows for use in-game instead of having to alt-tab to view the website version?

Hickory

Hickory is another alternative to clj-tagsoup and enlive

Quest Tracking?

Perhaps we can track collection quests by parsing the log and seeing what's been looted vs what needs to be looted still.

CLR-Clojure

Look into use of Clojure's CLR port to write .NET-compatible modules for use with the main application.

Scrape Once

Should the program scrape the wiki for faction info every time the program is run? It would seem the wiki doesn't update information enough to justify that. It may be better to scrape once, store in an SQLite db (which we already have) and just ship that db file with the program.

Port URL Agent

Port the URL scraping code which makes use of core.async from previous project as it's known to work correctly and quickly.

Faction/Quest Relationships

Add support for listing quests which can raise or lower factions.

Local SQL or Raw Text

Do we install a local SQL db to hold map information or do we read it from the existing map txt files in the EverQuest install directory?

Partial URL Fetch

Firing off a bunch of futures to fetch url responses and write them to files managed by agents doesn't always work. Some threads end prematurely it seems and partial data is written to file.

enlive

consider enlive as opposed to tagsoup as enlive builds on top of tagsoup to add additional features

Entire Sequence From HTML DOM Chunk

When retrieving content data from a series of similar dom elements, only the first element is returned. A great example of this would be lists. Only the first li tag's contents will be returned while we really want each tag's content within the ul

Update Zone Information

Some zones are missing some key features in the map outlines.
Also, zones need to be updated to contain spawn information.

Scraper

Prototype simple HTML scraper (Clojure) to pull NPC and faction info out of the p99 wiki.

SQL Forms

Create basic form to insert data into the SQL tables instead of writing the SQL statements by hand.

Hook Up Form To Action

SQLite UI made. Need to hook it up to insert/update/delete queries.

Split Project

There's some beginnings of code in here that would be useful for Faction tracker. Log reading, SQLite db, etc. The idea is to target something, con it, read the event from log, and display information about the factions that mob belongs to/effects.
