EVE Technology Lab

I'm almost done with all the new GET resources, managing fittings, contacts and waypoints will take some more time. They can all be retrieved, but not changed.

edit: But yes, please file bug reports for any missing endpoints, or missing data fields from supported resources.

I'm pretty new to the whole C# thing (Literally my first time outside of mucking around in Unity) so this might just be me being stupid but I'm having a problem with that new CREST version you released.

I have the following code with a TextBox in an otherwise empty Windows Form Project (pared down for testing this error):

using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.IO;
using eZet.EveLib.EveCrestModule;


namespace EveCrestTypesTest
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            LoadTypes();
        }

        private void LoadTypes()
        {
            textBox1.Text += "Setting up.\r\n";
            EveCrest crest = new EveCrest();
            var root = crest.GetRoot();
            textBox1.Text += "Testing types loading.\r\n";
            var types = root.Query(r => r.MarketTypes);
            var list = types.Items.ToList();
            while (types.Next != null)
            {
                try
                {
                    types = types.Query(t => t.Next);
                    list.AddRange(types.Items);
                    textBox1.Text += list.Count + " types loaded.\r\n";
                }
                catch(AggregateException e)
                {
                    File.AppendAllText(Application.StartupPath + "\\logs\\log.txt", e.InnerException.ToString() + "\r\n\r\n");
                    MessageBox.Show("Wrote error to file.");
                    System.Environment.Exit(e.InnerException.HResult);
                }
            }
            textBox1.Text += "Types loaded.";
        }
    }
}

If I add the current NuGet version of EveLib (3.0.0, I don't see 3.2.0 over there) as a project reference, everything compiles fine and the program loads all of the types, with no exceptions. However, if I grab 3.2.0 from GitHub, compile it and use that as a reference, I get the following exception thrown:

eZet.EveLib.EveCrestModule.Exceptions.EveCrestException: The query parameter page were cast able to type integerType, error invalid literal for long() with base 10: '2?' ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (415) Unsupported Media Type.

Edit: I found 3.2.0 on NuGet (I was checking the website, not the package manager in VS2015, like a dummy) but it throws the same exception.

Good to see that EveLib is still actively maintained.
Yeah, NuGet is not up to date with the master branch, I just downloaded the source and added the projects separately in my solution.

The "correct" way to currently is to construct urls and append them as explained 1 or 2 pages back, unfortunately. I'll be looking into that next, after this update. I'll have a look at region IDs, just fixed the issue you mentioned earlier about the new version :)

edit:
var BlackRise = crest.GetRoot().Query(a => a.Regions).Query(b=> b.Single(x => x.Name == "BlackRise"));
BlackRise.MarketBuyOrders += "?type=https://public-crest.eveonline.com/types/2/";
var orders = BlackRise.Query(c=> c.MarketBuyOrders).AllItems();

So you get find the MarketOrders resource from the root, but you have to append the type parameter.

The EveCrest.GetX() functions are leftovers from the initial versions, and uses hardcoded URLs to access the resouces ,which is why they are deprecated. They will be removed for the next major release, since they are breaking changes. Just fixed the missing RegionID, anything else I should get done before I release this version?

New version of EveCrest available here: https://www.nuget.org/packages/eZet.EveLib.EveCrest/3.2.1
Release notes: https://github.com/ezet/evelib/releases/tag/EveCrest_v3.2.1

EveAuth will be updated tonight. Is that causing any issues now ?

Crest POST/PUT/DELETE is still a ways off because I still haven't decided how I want the API to look, and as far as I remember I had some issues with POST or PUT last time I tried. This is what I'll be working on next however, so it might be done in a few days.

New version of EveAuth: https://www.nuget.org/packages/eZet.EveLib.EveAuth/3.0.1

Not yet, but it's on their (very long) list of things to fix.

Still learning how to use the library. I have used the Query MarketTypes to get a list of the market types. Each MarketTypeCollection Item has has two properties MarketGroup and Type.

I would like to get an ItemType object from the Type's Uri and the icon from the Icon's Uri. How do I run a query on these and what type of object do I put it in?

For example Plagioclase (note it won't let me put more explicit text because it says no html even though I see links in previous posts),
I would like to get an ItemType object so I can access the properties and attributes of items and an Image object.

Also, the MargetGroup property for Plagioclase has it's Uri set correctly, but it's Name property is null. Is this intentional and I would have to put the correct name string in this object by getting it from either the endpoint itself or my MarketGroup list retrieved from a Query of MarketGroups, or is this a bug and it should be populated. The Type property has it's Name is set to "Plagioclase".

Another question, does your web access abide by the 120 request per second with 400 request per seconds burst and 20 open connections limits specified for Crest?

I have the latest source code from github so if you want you could reference the source code in any explanations.

Thank you in advance.
