Auction Oracle addon (WoW: Forever)

A small, read-only addon that records two things for the desktop app:

The app works without the addon. The addon only makes the data more precise.

Install

  1. Copy the folder addon/AuctionOracle to: World of Warcraft\_classic_beta_\Interface\AddOns\AuctionOracle The product folder may have a different name on your install. Use the one that contains WTF and Interface.
  2. Restart the game, or type /reload.
  3. Make sure Auction Oracle is enabled in the AddOns list.

Use

Command What it does
/ao ruleset normal Tells the addon which ruleset you play on (normal, pvp, rp, rppvp). The game API does not expose it. Do this once.
/ao scan With the auction house open, asks for one full snapshot (C_AuctionHouse.ReplicateItems). Limited to one every 15 min (server cooldown).
/ao recipes Records the recipes of the profession window that is currently open. This also happens automatically when you open a profession.
/ao status / /ao clear Shows what is stored / deletes the stored scans.

Then type /reload (or log out) so the game writes WTF\Account\<ACCOUNT>\SavedVariables\AuctionOracle.lua. In the desktop app, open Settings → Addon SavedVariables path and point it at that file. It is imported at every collection. You can also import it by hand:

auction-oracle import-addon "C:\...\WTF\Account\NAME\SavedVariables\AuctionOracle.lua"

Compliance

This addon only does things that the built-in UI and long-standing addons (Auctionator-style) also do:

Read Blizzard's current UI Add-On Development Policy before redistributing the addon publicly.
