My first addon called wishlist. You can add items and input the requirements for it (supported are Honor, ArenaPoints, Gold, Marks of Honor, Badge of Justice and Halaa Tokens or Reputation).
It shows a total of needed stuff and how far you are with each item.

Will try to post screenshots tomorrow, it's based on Ace2 and it's a FuBar plugin. If you got AbacusLib installed it will show the money using that library.

Any suggestions or things I forgot please let me know! :)

[EDIT] Just to make sure, this is the first release, it's in beta and I'm really searching for testers

Latest Version:
- Clickable tooltip to show information about item (new)
- AtlasLoot Support (Basic)
- Command for watching items "/wishlist items add [link]"

As promised some screenshots, might give a better view :)

Main FuBar Tooltip:

Not shown on picture but for faction tracking shows how much rep you need in total.
The first part shows what you need (so what it is completely done is excluded)
The item part shows how much you have in total for that item

Menu:

You can set for each item what it needs.

Add Requirements Manually:

Should cover most of the situations, otherwise ask :D

Reputation Tracking:


Predefined:

There is some PvP stuff (Season 1/2/3, non-set pvp epics) and the Sunwell badge loot included, add item manually, then just choose what it needs

Coming Soon:

Just finished my AtlasLoot import, should come soon when the code is a bit cleaner.

Ace2 should be in the "OptionalDeps" field, not the "Dependencies" field. Users who run (default) embedded libraries don't have a standalone Ace2 addon. ;)

I thought so, but the first embedded library is AceAddon-2.0, and the first line of code is:

if not AceLibrary then error(MAJOR_VERSION .. " requires AceLibrary.") end

So I wasn't sure...

[EDIT] I see, the .toc is just messed up, weird, that part was autogenerated :D

Yeah, just the .toc.

That said, the current method of adding items is a bit tedious. I'm not a fan of entering text in dropdown menus. I did manage to find the slash command, but having to use the next available number to add a new item isn't very intuitive, and means I can't just add an item without checking for the next number first. "/wishlist items add _____" would be nice, as would the ability to enter an item link instead of an item ID (although leave the option to enter and ID for those who prefer that). Not everyone has an addon (or an option enabled in an addon) that shows them item IDs in-game. ;)

I know :( the hardest part is to insert a new item
You should be able to use both an item ID and an item link (it calls GetItemInfo to extract the needed information).
I'll see if I can improve the adding when using the command.

Well, Dewdrop doesn't allow inserting item links, and the slash command refused to do anything until I'd already added something via Dewdrop. Before any items were added it showed, for "/wishlist items", "- 1: add item", but typing "/wishlist items 1 ____" did not work with an item ID or item link (gave me a message about an invalid command). After I'd added some items via Dewdrop, I was able to do "/wishlist items 9 ____", but only with the item ID. When I shift-clicked an item link (from the AtlasLoot window) to add it to the editbox, I once again got the invalid command message. Maybe it's too picky about spaces? There may have been an extra one in there; shift-clicking some things pasts a link with a preceding space, while other things don't add the space.

Thanks for your input by the way, really appreciate it :)

Addon has been updated, same download location.

First basic support for AtlasLoot (if it's installed you get an extra menu item).
Command for adding items is "/wishlist items add [link]" or item id.
The .toc should be fixed now (I have no Dependencies at all, is this normal? :p)

Yeah, no dependencies is normal. With embedded libraries, really the only thing that's ever a hard dependency is a parent addon for a plugin... i.e. if you write GridStatusReadyCheck, it lists Grid as a dependency. Other than that, not really.

I'll give the new version a try here in a few.

Anyone knows what has to be done to get this with all the other Ace addons? (Talking about files.wowace.com and/or svn :))

You need to apply for an SVN account; there's more info about the SVN here: http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Category:SVN and on one of those pages there are instructions for who to email with what information to get your account. However, it usually takes a few weeks to get a response, so in the meantime if you'd like, I can commit it on the SVN for you, since I do have an account.

The files.wowace.com zips are builds of the recent commit of each addon on the SVN; changes to something on the SVN cause a new zip to be built, and the files script checks for updates every 20 minutes or so.

I applied for a SVN account, just need to do one little change to my addon and then it could be added to SVN if you want :) thanks alot

Sure. Just post it as an attachment in this thread, or email it to me at phanx1337@gmail, and I'll commit it for you; once you get your SVN account, you can take over. :P

You can now click on an item in the tooltip and it will give an item link (useful if you have a compare addon installed) and shows how much you need for that item alone :)

Is there any way to put wanted items in user-created sets (or groups, if you prefer) ?
Like healing, pvp, pve...

Any idea how you would want to see it? Should it show all items in the tooltip together or group by set. Or a simple (Healing) behind it or something. I could add a simple comment to each entry.

Hmmm, probably one more depth on the cascading lists, like Items -> Sets -> [item links] instead of the actual Items -> [item links].

I'll try it tonight anyway, so maybe it will give me more inspiration :]

I'll see if I can try something tonight :)

XIU,

I've committed Wishlist to the SVN. I went ahead and changed it to use an embeds.xml file instead of listing libraries directly in the .toc, and to use the newer LibGratuity-3.0 instead of Gratuity-2.0. As soon as you get a chance, it would be great if you could checkout from the SVN and make further changes on that base, so I don't have to redo those things when you send me new changes to commit. :P

Zips should appear on the files page soon:
