Dragonflight and v2 rewrite #11

Closed Vladinator closed 1 year ago

Vladinator commented 1 year ago

Since Dragonflight changed a lot of functionality and there were things I wanted to update in the addon. I took the time to rewrite most of the framework and merge in the separate filter module to be part of the core addon itself.

The reasoning was that in order to overhaul and overwrite the vendor frame, but to avoid deeper taint complications, it was wise to simply avoid any of the Blizzard code and just rely on this addons own system.

The end result should yield a faster and less taint prone addon. The old tooltip scanning is replaced with the new API that came in Dragonflight, along with using the new scroll frame system that is more efficient than the old system.

There is a v1 branch that kept the old code that also worked in Dragonflight, but that won't get updates any longer. The same goes for the filter module.

You can find the filter module pull request here along with its v1 branch:
