Discussion Mobile Tools using journal files?

Are there any android or iOS that can parse and display journal file data? Or some way to dump ED discovery CMDR data to a web server and view from a mobile app? The ED discovery databases seem pretty big but I imagine most of this is EDSM data so all of that wouldn't have to be part of an individual CMDRs data. Even a small fee to cover web hosting and storage would be worth paying a few dollars a year for, at least to this CMDR.

Have a look here: http://edcodex.info/ perhaps you will find something. It's a db of 3rd party tools for E: D.

To be more precise: EDProxy - Netlog proxy server. Snippet: Elite: Dangerous Netlog proxy server (edproxy) replicates the netLog entries (currently System only) out to any registered listeners via TCP so that an application may run from anywhere.

The author has created it for him own Android app: AndDiscovered - Android exploration tracking tool modeled after EDDiscovery. Both links point to EdCodex.

EDproxy is open source and could be adjusted to parse the journal log. The author is no longer maintaining it. See his post in his own thread.

As I said its open source so commanders can fork the code and make it comaptible with the journaling log.

Cool, thanks. I'll check those out, sounds like it might require some work to get it up and running? I'm a very amateur coder, so not sure I could do a lot with it but worth a look none the less.

Thanks again.

Its amazing what so called 'very amateur coders' with lots of determination and googlefu can create. Wrt parsing the journal log. Since 2.2 a lot of commanders have done this and a lot of knowledge exists. I can imagine they are quite willing to help you out. Also have a look at the ED community developers. https://edcd.github.io/, they also have there own discord server. They can help you further. Perhaps they are even willing to continue development of EDProxy - if they have a usecase for it. They have done this in the past for other open source ED projects whose authors stopped.
