EDDB station info not current. #13

Open ual002 opened 9 years ago

ual002 commented 9 years ago

I can update EDDB for a station I am at and ask AER to provide that info and it is not current. This may need a fix, or addressing.

Eddb jsons are only updated once every night. There is no way to get live EDDB data.

Currently, updating the JSON files is a manual process:

1) Go to EDDB.io 2) Download JSON files 3) place in AER/json folder 4) restart AER

Waiting on input from eddb guys for best practices regarding an auto-update function since the data is 100MB and tags their servers.

My apologies, so any update I do on the site will reflect the next day. I did not realize. Thanks.

You still have to manually grab the updated stations.json from http://eddb.io/api

Auto-download function will be in 1.4.

Majkl- without more generic service for not-only-prices like EDDN, not easily possible Majkl- you'd have to hit eddb api each time SingularTier- a day lag on the data is fine SingularTier- "Hey Aer, Update EDDB data" -> checks timestamp -> updates if >1 day SingularTier- I'll put that in for 1.4 Majkl- you should check for 4:00 GMT+0

Manual update worked. My additions from yesterday worked. Thanks.
