Crawler Status

by Xxav on December 7, 2010, 7:51 pm, under WoW Crawler, World of Warcraft

Due to Blizzard is moving their Armory over to Battle.net, it’s broken a lot of tools that utilize the Armory. Unfortunately, our crawler is one them. They claim they will provide an XML feed *soon* that we’ll be able to switch over to. So until that happens, the crawlers will not function. If they do not have an XML feed up by this weekend then I will rewrite the crawler to parse out the HTML on the new Armory.

Apologies for not being able to have the crawler running but it’s out of my control! Stay tuned!

UPDATE: I put out a new version of the crawler that is modified to work with the old broken WoW Armory. Feel free to upgrade to this version and run it. I am still waiting to be able to hook it up to the new Battle.net Armory. Thanks!

Cataclysm!

With Cataclysm going live tonight, I’ve added the new raid zones to the site. I’ll tweak things further as we get further into the expansion. Let me know if anything looks out of place. Time to fire up those crawlers. Thanks :)

Edit: It looks like the WoW Armory is currently having some issues so the crawler will be able to collect any data until those are back up. I am also anticipating some downtime for the crawler when they take the old WoW Armory offline and move over to the new Battle.net version.
