Lt Vence	Posted - 2011.07.14 20:22:00 - [1] I have two blogs, one by blogspot and one by tumblr. I was wondering if there was a way to get certain information about my pilot to show on one of these two blogs. Specifically things like known skills, currently active ship, ship loadout, pilot portrait(just an example, i know a thousand other ways to get this), wallet, stats, and other stuff. I want to know if there is a way to put some of this stuff on my website so that it automatically updates as I play the game. Do I need the api code to do this or is there some other, possibly easier way. I am not that good with website programming, the best I know is HTML.

Mendolus Aurelius Federation Eternal Evocations	Posted - 2011.07.14 20:26:00 - [3] Edited by: Mendolus on 14/07/2011 20:28:25 Do you want the information to update live or you just want the ability to post the information without having to type it all out? To just post it, you can select your character tab in EVEMon, go to Edit, and export all your skills to BB code for forums. If your blog does BBCode, it will come out quite nice looking, just like the way it looks on your character page on the website here. Quick example below: Mendolus Electronics Cloaking Cynosural Field Theory Electronic Warfare Electronics Electronics Upgrades Frequency Modulation Long Distance Jamming Long Range Targeting Multitasking Propulsion Jamming Sensor Linking Signal Dispersion Signal Suppression Signature Analysis Signature Focusing Survey Target Painting ... Edit: Also, there are a couple websites that allow you to plug in your Limited API and get a readout of your skills as well, you can look into those to see if they allow dynamic posts that update your skills, etc. or you can simply link your character's page on those sites as reference and whenever someone goes to it, they will see your updated skill sets. For the life of me I cannot remember a single one of these said though, but I am sure someone else will.

Lt Vence	Posted - 2011.07.14 20:31:00 - [6] Updating live would be nice. What exactly do you mean by posting it without typing it in? I saw the My Character thing but I don't know how I would insert XML into blogspot or tumblr. I think they may support BBcode, I am not sure.

I saw the My Character thing but I don't know how I would insert XML into blogspot or tumblr. I think they may support BBcode, I am not sure. i.e. you do not have to actually sit there and have your character window open on one screen and your blog on another, and manually type each skill with the keyboard. I'm sure blogspot can handle the BBcode, have no idea about live update stuff though, I would be pretty curious about that too.

I appreciate a good debate long as both parties can laugh when it is over and realize the outcome does not really matter, cuz to be honest, it's a game! You sir, I look forward to having debates with again.
dexington Caldari Baconoration	Posted - 2011.07.14 20:40:00 - [10] You can get the needed character information from the API, and use XSLT to transform the XML to whatever html you would like for you blog. Depending on what functionality your blog sites offer, this could expose your API key to the public. If you can't use any server side applications to retrieve the API data, you should not use any API functions that require the full API key. The best way to do it is to use a server side application, but if that is not possible you can do it client side, as long as you don't mind sharing your public key with anyone viewing the blog. Maybe you can find someone offering a 3. party solution, that may be a safer choice.

Would anyone happen to know of any sites like these, I tried searching for some but can't really find any of them.

There has been a couple of sites over the years offering this, I'd say eveboard is the current default. If anyone knows of similar 'boards', let us know. http://eveboard.com/pilot/Simplus_Massive http://eveboard.com/pilot/Zaisen_Abarai You can also password the public access to your general info, hide/show clone and wallet, compare pilots, there are all sorts of derived stats etc, etc. ------------------------------------------ simplus.rjctd.com ★ zaisen.rjctd.com
