At the beginning of the Ny'alotha raid in BfA, having the right corruption on gear drops (also available on BoEs) meant massive DPS increases. The gap was so big that it was nearly impossible to compete against players with BiS. As a result, many competitive players transferred to other realms and back just to buy their BiS for millions of gold.

Thankfully it was eventually remedied through the corruption vendor and removed after one tier. Nowadays, this tool simply scans for BoEs in every auction house across each region.

This app consists of two parts:

1. Website: (src/web)

   • This is a SPA built using Vue.js

2. Cron Script: (src/scripts)

   • This is a cronjob responsible for fetching auction house data from Blizzard's API

These two parts are completely independent from each other where their only communication channel is through the generated json data files.

# Runs linter
pnpm lint

# Download game data from the API (localized item names and icon files) before building
pnpm fetchBonusIds
pnpm fetchItems

# Starts webpack-dev-server on localhost:8080
pnpm devWeb

# Define CLIENT_ID and CLIENT_SECRET in this file
touch .env

make build # Creates Docker images
make run   # Starts Docker images

1. Create new file in data/tiers/config directory that default exports a TierConfig object. This config will be dynamically loaded via Webpack. The file should be of the form XX-YY-descriptive-name where XX is the expansion number (e.g. 07 for BfA) and YY is simply a number used to order the config (the last file in the filesystem will be considered the default/latest tier).

2. Run pnpm fetchBonusIds and pnpm fetchItems to regenerate data files

Run this script in your browser dev console to quickly extract item ids from Wowhead's item search

$('table.listview-mode-default').find('td:nth-child(3)').find('a.q4, a.q3').each((idx, el) => {
    const href = $(el).attr('href')
    const id = /(\d+)/.exec(href)[0]
    console.info(`${id}, // ${href}`)
