About AuctionScan
AuctionScan is a World of Warcraft Auctioneer Add On that runs completely outside of the game using Auctioneer LUA files. While at work, on the road, or anywhere else you may not be able to sign on to WoW, a user is able to pull up specific server prices for items that have been seen in the Auction House.
AuctionScan Features:
- Search for Items/Prices in your auctioneer.lua file
- Sort your results by Name, Count, or Price
- Retrieve Statistical Information about the Prices of Items
- Ultra Quick access to Thottbot and Allakhazam's Information page about searched items
- Switch between Realms & Factions instantly to compare prices
- Load different lua files without leaving the program
- Save lua data to CSV files for easy import into Excel in two different formats
- View Internal Item IDs and Enchant IDs to WoW by hovering over item name
Basic Usage
To use this program, a person first needs to have the Auctioneer Mod installed on thier client and have a few good scans of the Auction House under their belt. Once this is complete, a user is able to grab their Auctioneer.lua file from
<World of Warcraft>\WTF\Account\<ACCOUNT>\SavedVariables, copy it into their AuctionScan directory, and run the program.
Simply type in the term you wish to look for and Auctioneer will retrieve the data from the LUA file. If you hover over the price, you will get a statistical breakdown of the price. The left button will take you to ThottBot and the right will take you to Allakhazam's information page on the item.
You can also export the data to CSV files for importing into Excel workbooks simply by clicking on File -> Export. There are two different options for exporting that can be read about in the Readme file.

There WILL be bugs in the Beta. Beta releases can be installed simply by replacing the .exe file with the one in the ZIP. There is no installer for Beta releases.
AuctioneerParse
Much of the work behind AuctionScan is performed by a Perl Module called AuctioneerParse. This module simply takes the LUA data from the auctioneer lua data file and creates a hash of the information. This module is not only free, but the entire source is available. It is released under the GNU GPL License. Further information can be found at the website below.
