Neohero1972 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Hi I would like to know how Tip.it retrieves prices on the various items in Runescape - I ask because i'm not a techie myself. Is it done by web scraping or do Jagex provide an API ? Adventurer's Log for Neohero1972 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Squab Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Probably via the GE database? 'o.O Some automated program presumably checks there. If you wanted a better answer then this, well...sorry >.< Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.[spoiler=The rest of my sig. You know you wanna see it.]my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them meBuying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupineThe only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it. Poignant Purple to Lokie's Ravishing Red and Alg's Brilliant Blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Lol, jagex provides an API...yeah right. I believe they just parse the html, although Pure_mageUk would know for sure.
