Auction API: Getting wrong realm auction batch #31

Open aanc opened 9 years ago

aanc commented 9 years ago

Hello,

On EU realms, when downloading the batch from the URL returned by the /api/wow/auction/data/<realm> call, I get the data for another realm:

ownerRealm seems to be correct, but realm.name is not.

Example:

$ curl http://eu.battle.net/api/wow/auction/data/medivh                                                                                              
{"files":[{"url":"http://eu.battle.net/auction-data/57304a565824f2d778f9ad106430c98c/auctions.json","lastModified":1412860949000}]}%                                                                                                    

$ curl -s http://eu.battle.net/auction-data/57304a565824f2d778f9ad106430c98c/auctions.json | head
{

That is because Suramar and Medivh are connected realms. The following calls will both return a link to the same auction house data:

$ curl http://eu.battle.net/api/wow/auction/data/medivh
{"files":[{"url":"http://eu.battle.net/auction-data/57304a565824f2d778f9ad106430c98c/auctions.json","lastModified":1412947949000}]}

$ curl http://eu.battle.net/api/wow/auction/data/suramar
{"files":[{"url":"http://eu.battle.net/auction-data/57304a565824f2d778f9ad106430c98c/auctions.json","lastModified":1412947949000}]}

If you're trying to determine which realm the auction was actually created on, use the ownerRealm property on the auction objects.
