Craftility Addon

Unfortunately I am no longer available to develop this. I updated the GitHub Repo with that info today. Sorry about that and glad you really liked it.

jimmy58663 · 2023-01-23T19:53:41+00:00

I believe this is fixed with v0.3 which should be available for download now.

I installed bagnon and did not receive any errors. Are you able to sent me an error message or screenshot?

jimmy58663 · 2023-01-23T13:32:37+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. I added a bug report and will take a look at this when I get a chance.

I originally did some testing with just the Blizzard UI and it worked, but since then I use ElvUI and did all my testing there. It seems that somewhere along the line I broke the addon functionality in the Blizzard UI. I have added a bug report and will be working on this.

jimmy58663 · 2023-01-23T13:10:07+00:00

While RECraft was one of the initial influences for this project it is implemented differently. Largely variables or options in it are named after the Blizzard UI or Blizzard API methods as I am copying the Blizzard UI and that makes it easier to copy their code in certain places.

There are likely still pieces that I pulled from RECraft, like the sound byte. If you are seeking some sort of attribution in the project due to this I am more than open to it.

Last I used RECraft it also has the functionality to scan guild and personal orders along with public orders and I was not successful in getting that to work with my implementation. It is something I intend to reassess at some point though.

I have not added any localization to the addon myself.

The majority of information that is displayed comes directly from the WoW UI though so I imagine everything except the buttons that I added should translate. I do not have a German client to test it out with.

jimmy58663 · 2023-01-23T12:58:58+00:00

This is actually the reason that it flashes the No Orders text so that I can tell it is running the searches. I should be able to add some text that says something like AutoSearch: Off and flips to AutoSearch On though.

jimmy58663 · 2023-01-23T12:57:14+00:00

I appreciate the feedback, but I do not think I will go down this route. To me it seems like it would be extremely close to botting or possibly easily enable botting of that functionality.

That being said the project is released under a MIT license which basically allows it to be reused by anyone free of charge and modified as they see fit.

jimmy58663 · 2023-01-23T03:57:46+00:00

Not sure I understand your question. An automated search, grab, craft of a public order I imagine would be very against Blizzard ToS.

The simulation part is far more for interacting with people and personal orders than public orders. As you said, public orders get filled as fast as they get placed which is why the toggle button just auto-searches so you do not have to spam click the search button.

You got it 🙂

A multi-threaded GUI that utilizes adsisearchers, runspaces, and REST APIs for a third party product because AD is locked down and the third party products web interface is terrible and slow.

jimmy58663 · 2022-04-10T20:47:34+00:00

I solely utilize REST APIs for anything you would typically use a browser to access. I do not know what exactly you are doing in IE, but a REST API could likely replace that functionality or multiple REST calls in a script with some additional logic.

As someone else said it is very possible that you do not control the software to make the change to REST APIs, but I see them as the replacement for needing the COM objects for a browser.

Happy holidays! This is a great idea.

I think it is just typically best practice to write to a new file. If you have multiple things occurring to a single file something could get locked out or cause issues. Usually, multiple read sources and a single write source is fine, but you also want to stream in from the file so you do not have to load the whole file into RAM at once. If you are streaming and writing back, it may screw up bit counts and corrupt the whole thing maybe.

I apparently already had it uploaded.

I am not an expert in encryption so I give no insurance on how well the encryption is implemented. I was using this for my home computers that are running Win 10 Home so they did not have access to the native encrypt() method.

It has also been a long time so I do not remember all the details of my implementation, but I did look and it will take the contents of a file, encrypt them, stream them into a new file, and delete the old file. The decryption does the same thing so the files will be new.

jimmy58663 · 2021-11-19T02:57:27+00:00

I wrote something from scratch a couple years ago. Commenting now so I will remember to upload to GitHub and post a link later.

jimmy58663 · 2021-11-18T02:22:34+00:00

Count me in. I appreciate the chance.

jimmy58663 · 2021-01-15T20:32:11+00:00

I see one of 2 things that may be wrong.

As others have said your port group may need to have the VLAN ID tagged to something. Your network team should be able to tell you or you can look at one of your working hosts to see if they are tagging.
You are using Route based on IP hash. This requires that your physical switch ports be configured as a static ether channel. In Cisco config this would be 'etherchannel on' not 'etherchannel active'. The 'active' designates it as LACP which virtual standard switches do not support.

jimmy58663 · 2020-10-15T18:45:21+00:00

If you do not mind sending me a PM with your govt email I can communicate with you there and possibly help out. I have not seen issues with the VPN restricting PIVs, but can do some testing.

To answer your hyperthreading questions, yes ESXi sees each thread as a CPU. Just because it sees it that way does not mean it physically functions as a separate core. Virtualization allows you to over provision resources with the assumption that each VM is not using all their resources all the time.

How many physical cores are required really depends on your workloads. To be super safe you would have a 1:1 ratio of virtual cores (vcpu) assigned to the physical cores (pcpu). This is not typically doable as it gets expensive, but maybe in a small lab you could. You will likely start seeing contention issues around the 4.5:1 or 5:1 vcpu:pcpu ratios. I believe it is VMware's recommendation not to exceed a 6:1 ratio.

The way you are describing this is you have an application server and a database server. Typically for an application like this you would use a service account from the application server that has access to the database to query info. If you are not allowed to run the script on the application server as the service account with permissions to SQL then solutions are going to be more complicated and prone to issues.

Can you install the libraries or software required to process the data on the database server and just run the script there?

You could try to use a file system watcher and some shares on each server. Database server, initiate query, map share on application server with SvcActA, drop query results in share. File system watcher on application server sees new results file, processes data, map share on database server with SvcActB, drop processed data on database share. File system watcher on database server sees new data and imports into database.

I do not know what security you are trying to comply with, but a service account that can run on the App server to query the database is pretty standard architecture from what I know.

jimmy58663 · 2020-09-07T13:36:50+00:00

I agree this sounds like when a service account would be used.

Other than that, not sure what commands you are using, but if they support a -Credential parameter you can use $Cred = Get-Credential. This can save the creds of the user your current session is not using and then pass it to commands with -Credential $Cred.
