When editing ED3PTT (some categories and authors were not yet set) I came across this: "Radio Sidewinder". Its description said "Add it just to don't forget about this : make a description later". Seemed to have worked.

Author: Black-Bart
Thread: Radio Sidewinder is broadcasting 24/7
Authors description: My radio station Radio Sidewinder has been broadcasting 24/7 for the past couple of weeks. I'm broadcasting a mix of music, news, gossip, ads etc. Music is a varied mix.., mainly ambient, electronic, techno but with some more recent stuff as well.

Personal comment: I like the music, but I'm nearing 50 so perhaps for younger persons its less suitable (as in less recognizable music). What I LIKE THE MOST is the DJ (its all prerecorded) telling all kind of stuff about ED AND I totally dig the ads. These are tongue in cheek ED ads for stuff like window cleaners, T9 etc. For ME its totally immersive. Not that I've played in a long while but when entering data into ED3PTT I've tried it for two days and I've to say it feels like I'm living in the ED age of time. Its really feels like a real radio station. HIGHLY recommended. Another GEM. To bad I missed this entry for a such long time.

Note to self: I should STOP reading the posts in the threads I add to ED3PTT. The list of things to add is supposed to get shorter, NOT longer. From the thread "What are you listening to on your cockpit radio?".

Authors/crew: http://laveradio.com/meet-the-crew/
LAVE RADIO The Elite Dangerous PODCAST
Lave Radio Live

I guess I've to add a radio or audio category to ED3PTT. Misc would not give these entries the credit they deserve.

Announcement in the EDDN thread: Database store for EDDN.

Description:
In an attempt to bridge the gap between where EDDN is now, and systems like trade dangerous, I've implemented my first go at storing and publishing data from EDDN. If it gets enough interest, I'll add more features. Let's see what response this gets.

You can get a trade dangerous-ish dump of my database from - It's real-time (IE, calling this URL reads the data from the database, not a pregenerated file). The database is updating from EDDN in real time.

http://eddndb.orcas.net/cgi-bin/tdexport.prices

Let me know what you think.

Announcement in the EDDN thread: Elite History Server

Description:
For those looking for historical EDDN data, I have built a cache system and a new protocol to deal with the problem of sending commodities one at a time. This system is based on protocol buffer, which in testing reduced the bandwidth taken by the messages from about 240 bytes zlib compressed JSON to around 95 bytes uncompressed protocol buffers. In addition, this system supports batching. When you need data, you call the endpoint with the last Unix timestamp of data you receive and it will send you everything since then. The code for the server is located at https://github.com/huadianz/elite-eddn-history and includes the protocol buffer schemas you need to receive the data. In addition, it also contains an example program that shows you how to unpack the protocol buffer binary stream.

The current server I am running is located at http://elite.servers.henryzh.com/api/v0/update/<timestamp>
The API will send you up to the last 1000 missed updates with Unix timestamps in MS >= the timestamp in the system. If you need more you will need to query the server again.

As this project is open source I welcome any suggestions or if you have any code you want to commit, that would be great. As for already planned features:

  • Update the network using batched commodity updates
  • Current status server (query the status of a station in its most recent state)
  • Timeseries server with influxdb
  • Using commodity IDs instead of names, if we get those from Frontier at any point

Currently working my way backwards through the EDDN thread.

Tool: EDDN - Elite Dangerous Data Network.
Author: jamesremuscat
Description:
A tool like EMDN. Dynamic data (like commodities prices) can be uploaded to it and its directly distributed to all clients listening to EDDN. Its basically a data relayer.

I created a thread for it and jamesremuscat was willing to setup EDDN. kfsone (Trade Dangerous) and Thrudd have said to support it. Status for the BPC is unknown. It will initially be used for the distribution of prices but will be made so that it will support all kinds of dynamic data.
Announcement: Here.

Tool: (intelligent) EDDN subscriber in python.
Author: kfsone
Annoucement: here.

I've decided its better not to clutter ED3PTT with to many entries which are basically the same: code for creating an EDDN listener. I decided to create one entry: Collection of code for creating an EDDN subscriber/listener. Code for multiple languages and frameworks.

Currently working my way backwards through the EDDN thread.

Tool: EDDN Feeder
Author: Askarr
Description: A tool similar to EMDR map for EVE which has the following description: See the solar systems light up as market data arrives.
Status:No public version available.

Comment: Contacted the author this weekend. The tool is still in development. Its progressing very slowly because of RL issues. Works quite nicely actually. Not ready for release. That is the reason I didn't provide a website or the announcement.

Saturday evening here. EDDN was released on the 16th of December. Currently at post #49 dated 18/12/2014, 3:43 AM. So the end of the tunnel is in sight. Hopefully the light I'm seeing is really the end of the tunnel and NOT another train coming my way. TODO: ELK stack VM (using vagrant) by a commander, examples of an ELK (wolvie copy/pasting Andreas posts) and the last two days of the EDDN thread.... And of course adding all the 7+ entries above which are now in this thread as posts but not (yet) in ED3PTT. BUT that has to wait till Sunday.

Its time for a nice glass of vino, some Daredevil episodes but first going to my local coffee shop for some nice brand of 'coffee' - Dutchie style...... Vino and 'coffee', a match made in heaven. Enjoy your evening. Trust me, I WILL ;-)
