Get glyph-prefix from API ?

Is there a API-way to get the prefix of a glyph-link? "grand glyph of health"
Thanks in advance.

there is no function, but you can get levels with GetItemLinkGlyphMinMaxLevels()

We added a similar request to the wish-list, already. You may vote for us and add your function request there: :)

Wouldn't something like this work in any language?

Lua Code:

local allowedItemType = {
    [ITEMTYPE_GLYPH_WEAPON] = true,
    [ITEMTYPE_GLYPH_ARMOR] = true,
    [ITEMTYPE_GLYPH_JEWELRY] = true,
}
local function GetItemLinkGlyphPrefix(link)
    if(not allowedItemType[GetItemLinkItemType(link)]) then return end
    -- get the base name of the glyph
    local data = {zo_strsplit(":", link)}
    data[4], data[5] = 0, 0 -- at quality and level 0 there is no prefix
    local baseName = zo_strformat("<<t:1>>", GetItemLinkName(table.concat(data, ":")))
    -- remove the base name from the link
    local name = zo_strformat("<<t:1>>", GetItemLinkName(link))
    return name:gsub(" " .. baseName, "")
end
 
local prefix = GetItemLinkGlyphPrefix(link)

It should work, just take in consderation that in some language, it's not a prefix, but a suffix.

ex: Glyphe de santé Vraiment Superbe

ok. that means the gsub needs to be a bit more flexible with removing the whitespace between the name and the prefix/suffix and maybe it also should be called differently (e.g. GetItemLinkGlyphQualityLabel).

No, in French it's in the middle: Glyphe Fort Vital
You could get away with splitting it into words and removing those found in the 0-level name. Seems a bit too complicated (and error-prone) for something that can be done with one table per language.

df("'%s'", prefix)

For me anyway, it's not the point, the point is to be able to generate the name of the glyph from the potency rune or (from any level info...)

so far, you have to either make a complete table for all languages (as in Merlin) or generate the data through time knowing that for this you need to have 1 rune of each type in you bag and have learned them already. Which won't help people who need this info the most : newbies that are trying to do their first writs.

With it I could avoid some serious looping when my addon selects the writ components at the station too or inform which rune is missing. So far I can't. (lets say i'm too lazy to maintain a table)

I will try it this way (not yet tested):

Lua Code:

function CS.RuneGetLink(id,quality,rank)
    local color = {19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,115,117,119,121,271,307,365,[0] = 0}
    local adder = {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,10,10,10,10,1,1,1,[0] = 0}
    local level = {5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,50,50,50,50,50,50,[0] = 0}
    return ('|H1:item:%u:%u:%u:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0|h|h'):format(id,(color[rank] + quality * adder[rank]),level[rank])
end
 
local function Split(level)
    local basename = GetItemLinkName(CS.RuneGetLink(26580,0,0))
    local basedata = { zo_strsplit(' ', basename) }
    local name = zo_strformat('<<t:1>>', GetItemLinkName(CS.RuneGetLink(26580,3,level)))
    local namedata = { zo_strsplit(' ', name) }
    for x, name in pairs(namedata) do
        for y, base in pairs(basedata) do
            if name == base then table.remove(namedata,x); table.remove(basedata,y); break end
        end
    end
    return zo_strformat('<<C:1>>', table.concat(namedata,' '))
end

    end
end

This won't work because table.remove shifts indices, and you will skip the next value (edit: removed incorrect info; you can delete table values during traversal). Anyway you don't need 2 nested loops. Assuming the 0-level name has fewer words, you can:

Lua Code:

local i = #basedata
for j = #namedata, 1, -1 do
    if namedata[j] == basedata[i] then
        table.remove(namedata, j)
        i = i - 1
    end
end

This works for me, but not tested in french:

Lua Code:

-- Returns a glyph-link in wanted quality and level
local function RuneGetLink(id,quality,rank)
    local color = {19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,115,117,119,121,271,307,365,[0] = 0}
    local adder = {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,10,10,10,10,1,1,1,[0] = 0}
    local level = {5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,50,50,50,50,50,50,[0] = 0}
    return ('|H1:item:%u:%u:%u:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0|h|h'):format(id,(color[rank] + quality * adder[rank]),level[rank])
end
-- Returns the glyph-prefix for the wanted level
local function Split(level)
    local basename = zo_strformat('<<t:1>>', GetItemLinkName(RuneGetLink(26580,0,0)))
    local basedata = { zo_strsplit(' ', basename) }
    local name = zo_strformat('<<t:1>>', GetItemLinkName(RuneGetLink(26580,3,level)))
    local namedata = { zo_strsplit(' ', name) }
    for j = #namedata, 1, -1 do
        for i = #basedata, 1, -1 do
        if namedata[j] == basedata[i] then
            table.remove(namedata, j)
            table.remove(basedata, i)
        end end
    end
    return zo_strformat('<<C:1>>', table.concat(namedata,' '))
end
