NightWind's Card Searcher

Might as well make another bump as a safeguard. Till this reaches 662 at least.

This should be enough to bring it over the line.

In my zeal, I forgot I can't access the main server cscs; this is the stuff on the dev server, but I don't think you have the latest for that anyway. And maybe you can extrapolate what you need from this for the 3 V-day cards anyway? (cards 1111, 1112, 1113)

I forgot to upload the CSCs yesterday.

How are the dev and prod CSCs different? If the dev differences are large I won't be refreshing the whole database and will instead just change the three cards. (Which I'm doing now as a just in case and also because I need to sleep and am going for shortcuts).

And so I just noticed how the dev one has the RU cards in it. I'll just pick out the ones I need. I don't have time to update RU, but will do that tomorrow.

Cardsearcher has been updated to include the 3 new Valentines Day cards on both the main and backup sites.

RU cards will be updated in 24 hrs.

Would it be easier if in future I just sent a CSC file containing the lines that have been changed/added, rather than all cards? I'd previously assumed that having everything in one file would be quicker but the above post hints otherwise.

Something I noticed. When clicking the link you posted in another thread for the valentine cards, I noticed holiday spirit is said to have 9 of each, but while checking their wiki, this is incorrect (shows as having 0 of each).

No - it would be the same amount of time whether you send only the affected lines or the CSC as a whole. What I did in this case was take the previous complete CSC file and pasted the 3 lines into it and then did the usual processing followed by the upload.

If you were to only send me the lines that have chagned, that would in fact be more troublesome as it means I have to go into the CSC file and manually find and replace the lines. If i accidentally erase one too many lines, then we may never spot the error that a card was missing because I deleted two lines instead of one.

Thus, I'd prefer the classic method of sending me the entire CSC file. The whole process and upload thing is usually pretty quick itsellf (1/2 hour thereabouts).

I'll check this out after I uploaded the RU stuff.

The RU searchers on both the main and backup sites should now have the most recent RU data as in the above CSC file. Can someone check and verify?

The card list by id on the wiki page needs to be fixed so that the last 3 ids are 1111, 1112, and 1113 instead of all being 1110. This confuses the cardsearcher and makes it mistake the Vday cards for the Gloopzilla card (with 9 in HS stock). The cardsearcher uses the list of cards by ID page to perform the mapping function between the card name, card id and ultimately uses it to return HS stock numbers.



Once the wiki page is fixed, the cardsearcher problem should go away as well.

Whoops . Fixed the wiki page now.

EDIT: Yeah, it's easier for me to send the whole file rather than just the changed lines as well. I was just wondering as you mentioned taking shortcuts.

The shortcut was only because I thought I had to do a find and replace for all the dev references in the CSC. Unsure about the extent of the changes required, I just went simple and took out the three cards. In other words, I thought there were other stuff like the RU data that I need to take out before it can be used.

Because there have been some major balance changes (including adding a new card)...

Have the cscs Horo!

Ideally, this will be the last update before RU goes live, then you won't need to maintain that searcher anymore! Or until the next set.

RUTest on both the main and backup sites are now updated.

Both the main and backup cardsearchers have been updated to include the newest card Saint Cyril

I keep getting this error
I've tried a few different searches a few times but keep getting the same error

First of all, you can use the backup site below - it still works even though nofeehost doesn't. Tough you'll notice that both cardsearchers will crash if you try to do a store search. This is because the actual CMC server is down.

As for why the main cardsearcher isn't working at all in the first place as compared to the backup one, I'm guessing that the manager of it has either forgotten to add more disk space or something like that. The problem usually clears itself within a day or two, and a worst, in a fortnight. And since my cardsearcher was working with the recent CSC upload that was only a database change, it doesn't have anything to do with the cardsearcher crashing.

Wait, CMC may be up after all - I just have a really slow connection to it today.
