Auto Category - Custom Inventory Categories : Bags, Bank, Inventory : Elder Scrolls Online AddOns

[b]
1.34 Changes:

Added itemname() to match items by name. Returns true if the item name contains any of the provided strings (case insensitive), e.g. itemname("Maelstrom", "Alkosh")

1.33 Changes:

Bumped API version for Murkmire.

1.32 Changes:

More huge performance improvements! Thanks again to Shadowfen who did all the work here. (Pre-compile rules as they are changed)
Replaced Set Tracker support function GetSetTrackerState() with IsTracked(). If you used the old function, you will need to update your rule (sorry). This was done to bring the usage inline with the way the other similar functions work. Usage, e.g.: IsTracked("Sell/Decon", "Collecting")

1.31 Changes:

Big performance increase (2x or better for me), thank you to Shadowfen for the code change suggestion!
Updated libraries

1.30 Changes:

Added French translation. Big thanks to Hasgaad!

1.29 Changes:

HOTFIX - resolve errors at merchant due to Wolfhunter API changes.

1.28 Changes:

Bumped API version for Wolfhunter.

1.27 Changes:

Bumped API version for Summerset.
Added support for jewelry crafting ingredients. Note: you will need to either create a new rule yourself, or reset AutoCategory to default settings to grab the new default rule.
- To create your own rule, use
  Lua Code:
```
filtertype("jewelrycrafting")
```
- To reset to default settings: In the Auto Category add-on menu, use the Defaults button. Then use the /reloadui command. Important: this will remove any custom rules/settings you have defined.
New API function "IsMarkedIS()" - use to test whether an item is marked with Item Saver. Note that FCO ItemSaver users should continue to use "IsMarked()"

1.26 Changes:

New API function "islocked()" - use to test whether an item has been locked.

1.24 Changes:

Resolve circular dependency issue with DoItAll (requires matching update to DoItAll).

1.23 Changes:
Added Set Tracker support! Use "getsettrackerstate()" to retrieve the name of the Set Tracker category, if an item is tracked.

Added charlevel() and charcp() to pull current character level and CP. Can be used to compare item level to your character level with a custom rule. (Thanks to VulcanTourist)

1.22 Changes:
You can now define separate settings for your home storage chests (they will take their initial settings from your bank settings, but can be customized at will).

1.21 Changes:
Added support for home storage chests (big thanks to raj72616a). Currently, they will use the settings selected for your bank (no custom settings for home chests yet).

Bumped API version for Dragon Bones.

New maintainer (crafty35a).

New Feature: Items Count. You can get a total number about how many items inside the category. This can be turned off in the general setting menu.
Account Wide setting changed: You can switch account wide/character wide for each of your characters. (* Need to select again if you use character setting before, don't affect the bag settings)
Fixed bug: Removed duplicated rules in bag setting.
Fixed bug: German set names should be able to be matched now.
Changed api:keepresearch()
After a lot of tests, the api is not working fine. So I decided to make the api work more simple: It will match all the items can be researched. If you want better result, please use it with other api together. This is a basic idea to filter the item that is not part of a set and can be researched:
Lua Code:
```
keepresearch() and not isset()
```
New api:isset() api:ismonsterset()

1.15 Changes:

New feature: Category header's height is customizable!
New feature: You can change the name of ungrouped Category.

Adding the separate category for stolen "treasure" items, next to just general "stolen" category would make definitely easier to fence them and launder. Stolen weapons, recipes and furniture already are separated.

Adding to that thought, how about being able to sort writs by "clothing" "blacksmithing" "woodworking" etc.?

Noxifer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 43 Uploads: 0	Love the add-on! The possibilities are nearly endless (as soon as one starts to learn the language for the category coding xD). One thing I noticed, though... I've added FCOIS dynamic sets to remember which character I'm saving a piece as research material for. But if I make a "research" category and include not only those marked for research but also those marked with those particular dynamic symbols, the category changes name from just what I've named it to to include the dynamic names (or at least some of them) in brackets x_x which is kind of... not what I had in mind xD (I ended up doing separate categories for the bank, one for each dynamic and one for "unspecified" items to avoid it, but the issue is still there in the backpack) Is that a "missing setting" in your add-on, or something that would need to change on the FCOIS side of things? Or am I just blind and not seeing something that's already there? Screenshot: On the left is how it looks with the combined category, and on the right how I had to separated it in the bank. The stuff in brackets are the dynamic set names that were added automatically, not anything I added to the category name. (Character names censored for privacy :p Technically I could have renamed the dynamics for screenshot purposes, but I didn't think of it until way later.)

At your own risk, but the missing jewelry traits can be added in the file AutoCategory\AutoCategory_RuleFunc.lua

Just replace the existing block

Code:

	
        ["jewelry_arcane"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_ARCANE,
	["jewelry_healthy"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_HEALTHY,
	["jewelry_robust"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_ROBUST,

with

Code:

	
        ["jewelry_arcane"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_ARCANE,
	["jewelry_bloodthirsty"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_BLOODTHIRSTY,
	["jewelry_harmony"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_HARMONY,
	["jewelry_healthy"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_HEALTHY,
	["jewelry_infused"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_INFUSED,
	["jewelry_intricate"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_INTRICATE,
	["jewelry_ornate"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_ORNATE,
	["jewelry_protective"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_PROTECTIVE,
	["jewelry_robust"] = ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_JEWELRY_ROBUST,

I spent hours organizing all the categories and yesterday, when I updated this addon using Minion, all the categories I created were lost and everything seemed to be default again. I am again spending lots of hours, but this time I made a copy of the AutoCategory.lua, inside the SavedVariables folder, because I noticed it is where the addon saves the customizations... Is this correct? Is there a bug or is it normal to behave like that? Will I be able to substitute the .lua in case it happens again? Thanks in advanced...

Since you updated yesterday, and this addon (AutoCategory version 1.37) has not updated in months, it is likely that you updated to "AutoCategory - Revised" - whose saved variables were no longer compatible with the older AutoCategory since AutoCategory - Revised went to version 2.0 when Elsweyr came out.

In the change log for version 2.0 of AutoCategory - Revised, is noted the following Breaking Change:

"The SavedVariables for version 2.0 have changed formats from 1.37 in order to support multiple servers and character name changing. This means that 2.0 will not be able to read in your 1.37 category definitions. I recommend that you move your live\SavedVariables\AutoCategory.lua somewhere else (or print it) so that you can refer to your old rules to enter them back into the new AutoCategory."

The changing to incompatible saved vars is not a bug in this case; and is not a common occurrence - this time it was caused by a change that Zenimax introduced.

Yes it is a good idea to save the .lua from the SavedVariables folder someplace safe just in case because they can be copied back into the SavedVariables folder, if they accidentally disappear. If, on the other hand, the saved variables file simply "stops working" with no changes after an update then it is possible that your backup file will also not work.

Oh thank you so much for your response. Amazing how fast !

Let me please correct something. Yes, indeed I am using the revised, and have always used it. Thats because when I started playing, not long ago, it was already published.

So considering it is within the other version, can i presume correctly there is no "compatability" issue? Which leads to the next question, should I post over there instead of here?

Much much appreciated !

When I edit the existing category - everything works, but when I add a new one - items still "sit" in the "others" category. I wanted to add a category for the jewelery boosters - but it does not work. Checker says it is ok: \|sptype("jewelry_booster") What is wrong? Before I wanted to add a category for treasure items, it didn't work. But whem I added treasures to the "selling" category - they appeared there immediately.

What is wrong? Before I wanted to add a category for treasure items, it didn't work. But whem I added treasures to the "selling" category - they appeared there immediately.

I created a Category "Materials" - "Treasures" and put
sptype("jewelry_booster")
as the rule.
Check came back as Good.
I then went up to bags, and in the Add Category section, I selected "Materials" - "Treasures", and hit the Add To Bag button.
Finally (since I'm ESO Plus), I went to my craft bag and retrieved some "Iridium Plating" so that it would appear in my inventory. Then I looked in my inventory to see the section "Treasures" with the "Iridium Plating" that I had just retrieved.

Sorry to take so long to respond, but I watch the comments for AutoCategory - Revised since that is my version of AutoCategory. I only come here to the original addon comments occasionally.
