Realtime auction logger (hourly refresh, may increase)

Glad to hear!

Hey Trist, want to say awesome job with this project! Super helpful to the whole P99 community!

Quick question, I looked through the thread and found some comments about searching for multiple items at the same time. With the current iteration of this project is there still a way to do this? It appears the search box is taking a literal string rather than regex.

Thanks again!

Right now that functionality isn't present - when I had it before it was running the cpu to some insane levels as some people (the few who did use the regexp functionality) had some regexps that were pretty large and heavy on the database.

Since I assume 90%+ just use simple item search, I added the WTB/WTS drop down select list and changed to a simple search in the recent rewrite.

Next time I have the auc tracker itch that I need to scratch, I'll see about adding something for multi item queries (although I'll probably just keep it to something simpler than regexp like comma separated names).

That sounds good, I think it was the fact before that you would choose something like 3+ wis, it would index EVERYTHING that had over 3 wis, an idea would be to have people filter results after they do a search, so it isn't constantly running a query every time the stream updates, if this is something that can be programmed off the current system.

Love it though man, great when I want to find an honest price or hunting for a rare item

So I don't have adblock or anything like that running on my chrome browser (firefox is a different story); But the auction tracker keeps telling me to disable the adblock. I use a host file that denies nefarious redirect attempts, so I'm thinking this may be it?

Thoughts?

Same thing happens with me; I've tried multiple browsers and removing any sort of ad blockage features and fail

A check is done to see if you are viewing the google ads - if not, the page displays the error.

If you have host file changes, proxy settings (firewall etc.) or anything else that causes these ads to stop working properly, the page will also stop working.

If you don't like the ads, you can find a link on the page (in yellow text) to hide the ads so you can see the page ad-free.

Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for running this service! I have used this hundreds of times in the past to find people selling meats and other ingredients. It is a nice feature and lets me catch up on auctions when I am not able to be in the game.

Huzzah, Tristantio!

Hi Tristantio,

I love the tracker.

Are you able to duplicate this for a live server such as the new TLP that came out?
