Thread: LuaSQL (or LuaCurl)

Hi,
is it possible to use LuaSQL (or LuaCurl) with the LotRO-LUA-Engine?

If not, is there an other way to receive/send data from/to an website?

LotRO's Lua implementation is extremely limited in terms of accessing data. Plugins can only save to and read from .plugindata files and can only do so in real-time when the plugin is being initialized or uninitialized. When the plugin is running there is a callback function for saving/loading data which has a delay of approximately 30 seconds.

Out of curiosity, what are you looking to do that you'd need realtime web access to a database instead of periodic data downloads?

If you share what you have in mind, perhaps other authors could suggest solutions using local data or game data.

In our Guild we are using SKS for loot.
And at the moment, when assigning loot, someone has to be on the desktop inside the sks-admin.
It would be much easier, if i could gain access to the admin via lua.

As a pure lua-script i managed to get everything what i needed using luaSQL... But I don´t know if this is possible in LotRO...

take a look at SKS Manager;

It's not LUA, but still pretty useful while raiding and free of course!
