[Map Suggestion] Settlements about canonned3d-map HOT 7 OPEN

https://elitebgs.app/api/eddb

from canonned3d-map.

I second this :)

Using eddb and downloading the station list together with the systems database, a csv file with systems containing a station could be created.

I am currently trying to get access to both files in certain formats to compile such a list. However - the owner of eddb already stated, that a JSON RESTApi would be unlikely :(

from canonned3d-map.

We would need to add them to our API. If you know of where I can query this data (EDDB does have an API it just doesn't contain this data).

Likewise in order for me to support it, I would need to know how to grab this data from the journal for our plugin.

from canonned3d-map.

I am in contact with themroc (owner of eddb) in regards with this. I will keep you informed.

Hmmm - looks promising - however, i can't seem to GET all station entries... this would mean:

1. iterate over all stations
   1.1 for each station, fetch the systems coordinates
2. compile a list with unique systems

EDSM Has a nightly stations dump

https://www.edsm.net/en/nightly-dumps

Its only 5.14MB does that help?

from canonned3d-map.

I have written a short springboot program to query the rest-api.

here is the (excerped) result:

(Thats a list of systems with the first 50 stations)

How would such a program fit into the canonn runtime architecture?

I am looking at the nightly dumps to reduce the load on eddb...
