TradeSkillMaster (Ascension.gg)

TradeSkillMaster (TSM) is a World of Warcraft addon suite. This fork is tailored for Ascension.gg and includes the core addon plus feature modules.

Modules

Each module lives in its own top-level folder and is loaded by its .toc manifest:

• TradeSkillMaster (core)
• TradeSkillMaster_Accounting
• TradeSkillMaster_AuctionDB
• TradeSkillMaster_Auctioning
• TradeSkillMaster_Crafting
• TradeSkillMaster_Destroying
• TradeSkillMaster_ItemTracker
• TradeSkillMaster_Mailing
• TradeSkillMaster_Shopping
• TradeSkillMaster_Warehousing

Install (Local)

Copy the desired module folders into your AddOns directory and reload the game:

• AddOns: /home/zalox/Games/ascension-wow/drive_c/Program Files/Ascension Launcher/resources/client/Interface/AddOns
• SavedVariables: /home/zalox/Games/ascension-wow/drive_c/Program Files/Ascension Launcher/resources/client/WTF/Account/omanfred/SavedVariables

In-game, use /reload after changes.

Development Notes

• Lua files use tab indentation.
• Keep .toc and primary .lua filenames aligned with the module name.
• If adding files, list them in the module .toc.
• Versions are tracked in TradeSkillMaster/TradeSkillMaster.toc and TradeSkillMaster_AuctionDB/TradeSkillMaster_AuctionDB.toc.

Custom Price Sources (Full Reference)

TSM price strings can reference built-in data sources and combine them with math. Source names are case-insensitive.

Core sources

• VendorBuy: Buy from vendor.
• VendorSell: Sell to vendor.
• Disenchant: Disenchant value (if available).

AuctionDB sources

• DBMarket: AuctionDB market value (scan/app historical average).
• DBMinBuyout: AuctionDB minimum buyout from the most recent scan data.

Accounting sources

• avgSell: Average sell price.
• avgBuy: Average buy price.
• maxSell: Maximum sell price.
• maxBuy: Maximum buy price.
• minSell: Minimum sell price.
• minBuy: Minimum buy price.

Crafting sources

• Crafting: Crafting cost.
• matPrice: Crafting material cost.

Optional addon sources

Available only if the addon is installed and enabled.

• AucAppraiser: Auctioneer - Appraiser.
• AucMinBuyout: Auctioneer - Minimum Buyout.
• AucMarket: Auctioneer - Market Value.
• AtrValue: Auctionator - Auction Value.

Functions and syntax

• Math operators: +, -, *, /, ^
• Money literals: 100g, 50s, 25c, or combined 12g 34s 56c
• Functions: min, max, avg, first, check, ifgt, ifgte, iflt, iflte, ifeq, round, roundup, rounddown
• Convert another item: convert(priceSource, itemLink) or convert(priceSource, item:12345)

Examples

• dbmarket * 0.9 (90% of market value)
• max(dbminbuyout, 100g) (at least 100g)
• min(dbmarket, 250g) (cap at 250g)
• ifgt(dbminbuyout, 200g, dbminbuyout, dbmarket) (prefer min buyout if above 200g)

Notes:

• Sources return values only when their module has data (for example, no AuctionDB scan means empty values).
• Use DBMarket for stable pricing and DBMinBuyout for recent lows.

Testing

There is no automated test framework. Validate changes in-game by:

1. Logging in / reloading to verify module initialization.
2. Exercising the relevant UI workflows.
