My questions are, what is the best library to make api requests, what's the best library to parse the data and what documentation do I need to learn to get good? Create a new topic on the forums and I will be glad to help you. This thread is for announcements regarding ESI

Send it start and end location with a flag for autopilot safety preference . Returns the number of jumps and the path as as list. Go to Github at the link below and submit an issue which is also a request. I doubt it will be created though. That sounds link a perfect project for a Third party though. https://github.com/ccpgames/esi-issues

Have had to add catches that revert back to API for pretty much everything ESI is actually quite stable. There are some end points that will respond with a 500 error, just wait half a second and then make the call again. I did write loops into my script to reattempt the call if the HTTP Status Code is not 200. Generally the second call is successful and if not the second then the third. I have never had to go beyond the third call unless they took the endpoint down for maintenance, but then I just wrote a script that disables that call if it is down. It is good practice to have a fall back in your code. ESI is still in development to a degree and is actively being worked on. What you have done should not be look at from the standpoint that ESI is unrealiable, from the viewpoint that it is forcing you to take the extra steps to ensure that your code is more reliable. One should never rely on a single API if there are other options available. If able, code the fall back. All this does is make your application that much better.

Another picture: http://imgur.com/a/7Hr31 Fully aware of it man. ESI has been terribly slow all weekend long. CCP Snowdin has been working on. Strongly suggest you join the #esi channel on the Tweetfleet slack.

But where can I find which type id is which item? Also where can I find let's say recipe info? Or skill infos? And the last one is the market prices endpoint: what does that average_price mean? is it the average of selling and buying prices of all region? Is the only way to get the current price is to get all orders then order them by price? Thanks in advance. ESI is still being actively being developed and updated by the dev's daily. I suggest join the tweetfleet slack and subscibe to the ESI Channel. A lot of questions can be answered there. As far as the questions you answered here, these are mainly my personal opinion Q. Which Type ID is which item? A. GET /universe/types/{type_id}/ Q. Also where can I find let's say recipe info? Or skill infos? A. Not available via ESI right now. If you think it should be, please post an issue on GitHub at the link below. A lot of us keep a local copy of the SDE. At Least those of us who have project that reside on a server. I don't know if this is possible for you. But it make it a lot faster to retrieve static data such as those asked in this question. Q. Market Prices A. I apologize, I am unable to answer this question since my project does not interact with the market place endpoint Like I recommended earlier in my post. Join Tweetfleet Slack. - Info is in this forum I believe, but I know that Steve Roukin hosts the registration page - Subscribe to the Github Issues page. Your inbox will get rapes every weekday with emails, but you will learn lots about what is going on with ESI and how to work best with.

David Davaham Athanos Industries Cohortes Triarii 20	Posted - 2017.03.08 21:36:22 - [7] - Quote Please create an issue on GitHub. It is the only way for these request to be tracked and be considered. Posting the forums is essentially killing your request the moment you click submit on the post. I would love to see these options added. I think it is great. Developer of EVEmail

David Davaham Athanos Industries Cohortes Triarii 20	Posted - 2017.03.30 05:18:01 - [10] - Quote Kelath Erebus The answer to you all of your points is no. Yes they will eventually turn off the Crest and XML API's and that will likely be when ESI has reach parity with them, BUT some things that WILL be different about ESI is that account t level data will just not be included in the ESI. This is CCP's domain and that is the judgement call they have made. So what are some methods of getting around this? 1. There no longer a way to detect how many characters are on an account. And unfortunately no work around d has been thought of nor will it be. 2. Skill calculation based on Account Type. Give the user the freedoms to flip flop between the two to see the affects on his skill queue. In addition, implants are not available Le either, so build a page where the user can input the implants that he currently fly has in. 3. As Car Hark was pointed out, there are no account expirations anymore. Just downgrades to Alpha status. So this point is no longer relevant. You ask for links to all this information. My answer is a multi part If you want to know this information like I do, monitor Reddit. That is prolly your best source of information. Get on Slack and Join tweetfleet and then join the the rooms #devfleet & #esi - The devs are here more than on the forums Monitor twitter, YouTube, hit up a CSM, etc. Fly safe and o7 Developer of EVEmail
