What does this module do: EdReader fires an event every time the game updates the corresponding files, Under here you can see the event names with what they show:
| Event | Triggered when: |
|---|---|
| Status | Triggers when data inside event changes |
| Cargo | Triggers every time your cargo has changed |
| Shipyard | Triggers when opening shipyard screen |
| ModulesInfo | Triggers when opening module screen on left display |
| NavRoute | Triggers when setting route in galaxy map |
| Market | Triggers when opening Market |
| Outfitting | Triggers when opening outfitting |
| Journal | Triggers every time a new event happens (Except the events above) |
| allData | Triggers every time any event above triggers (Only if started with startRead) |
How to use:
const edreader = require("edreader");
//Tell EdReader to start watching for updates, This will also send the full log if Journal
edreader.startRead("Journal")
//Fired every time EdReader sees an update
//This will send the event as the game sends it in the game journal
edreader.on('Journal', data => {
//Code to process output
});
edreader.on("error", err => {
if (err) throw err;
})
//Tell EdReader to stop watching for updates
edreader.stopRead("Journal")
