3.10 2023-08-23
- Updated API for 2023 update of quality of life (101039)

3.9 2023-06-05
- Updated API for Necrom (101038)
- Fix book reader scene is now "loreReaderDefault" instead of "loreReaderInteraction"

3.8 2022-11-02
- Updated API for Scribes of Fate (101037)

3.7 2022-11-13
- Add chinese translation, credit goes to KomeSake who posted it in the comment section of Librarian in esoui.com

3.6 2022-11-02
- Updated API for Firesong (101036)

3.5 2022-10-03
- Add API for external addon to be able to register their own books to Librarian

3.4 2022-09-11
- Add keybind in lore reader only when the book is recognized by Librarian (it avoids conflicting with other addon like TheLibrarium)
- Add possibility to delete books which don't have a category

3.3 2022-08-23
- Updated API for Lost Depths (101035)
- Widden "Found" column for 12Hour format

3.2 2022-08-06
- Create separate lib for deprecation in order to make eso create a second file for the save variables.

3.1 2022-08-02
- Improve deprecation
- Prevent from opening a book that the current character doesn't know

3.0 2022-07-25
- Updated API for High Isle (101034)
- Fix issues
- Add icons in lore library
- Add option to mark book as read directly from lore library
- Remove Import from before patch option which was meant for save created back in 2015
- Remove some deprecation code for save before 2015
- Deprecate global saves to use bookId as identifiers instead of the title (several books had the same name) and remove all data that could be retrieved thanks to ESO API now that we have the bookId (title, body, medium, showTitle, wordCount). It lightens the save (~2MB for all the books on one character) and allow the player to switch language (although a few books can't be retrieved with their bookId because they don't have a category/collection so for them all the data are kept). Keep for now the previous save in a separate table in case there is a mistake in order to be able to roll back)
- Deprecate characterBooks save, it now references the bookId instead of the title and fill at the same time the unreadPerCollection list
- Optimize ImportFromLoreLibrary by removing the Refresh every frame (without it, past 1000 books, the game slow down a lot and at 4000 you end up with less than 1fps)
- Activate back auto importation from init now that it is quick enough
- Add full localization and support for french language
- Add a small timer before refreshing the list when doing a research as we could trigger a crash if we were typing a search too fast when we have too many books
- Improve settings (better integration with LibAddonMenu and add a few options)
- Add category column in Librarian UI
- Use smaller font in order to fit all of the text in the UI
- Add button to select if you want to search through the Full-Text or just the Title of the books

1.0.3 2014-4-15
- Added a settings screen which can be accessed from the standard settings menu.
- Added a time format setting so the user can choose between 12 and 24 hour time. This setting should default to 12 hour for english and 24 hour for other languages, which is the same logic the game itself uses.

I tried to investigate with just the callstack but it doesn't make much sense to me. It is as if one of ESO API function (GetNumLoreCategories) returned 0 for you instead of the real number. If you still have the issue, could you try to disable every other addon you have installed and see if the error is still present ?

Orionik Forum posts: 1 File comments: 9 Uploads: 0	It used to be the full text indeed but I changed that in the first updates that I made on this addon to limit the size of the save as I was encountering some issues when saving books from an account having more than 5000 books Especially as ESO API is allowing to access book content from anywhere (no need to copy it into the save) and it was also fixing issues about people switching language as the books read from Librarian were displayed in the language of their first discovery. Although, even with this change, it seems that for my character with 5000 books, the call to RequestAddOnSavedVariablesPrioritySave doesn't do anything. My save file is around 2MB just with this character, so I guess it is too big for the priority save to happen. It probably works well on character having just a few books but eventually it will stop working. So to avoid silent fail I prefer to not introduce this change into the addon and keep the alert message. Like Baertram said it is safer to do a manual /reloadui or use the key-binding added in this addon to trigger the reload with just a few pressed keys

SlippyCheeze Forum posts: 53 File comments: 272 Uploads: 1	Originally Posted by Baertram Keep in mind that priority save is handled by the game and done in between and should be ONLY used for very small amount of "critical data" and NOT on every update of your addon settings etc. If this is about saving new collected book positions etc. to the SV: Okay. The data is just the list of book ID and timestamps, no full text.

If this is to save book texts it most probably won't fit in the priority save methods timeframe available as it is only able to save very small kind of data like a flag on/off or similar. And as many addons could use that priroty save one should not miss-use the feature so all work fine in combination Do not use that for whole book texts, and all addon settings or anything more than a small flag or changed value that really needs to save "in time". Better justdo a manual /reloadui during your gameplay to save all properly to the disk/SSD Originally Posted by SlippyCheeze hey, thanks for the addon! I made a change to enhance it a bit locally, and thought you might want to integrate itcalling the ZOS API to request a "priority save" of the addon data, when it would spit out the "reloadui" reminder. Lua Code: -- LibrarianData.lua, line 167, disable the alert, and then ask for a save... -- d(GetString(LIBRARIAN_RELOAD_REMINDER)) GetAddOnManager():RequestAddOnSavedVariablesPrioritySave(Librarian.name) self.newBookCount = 0 Last edited by Baertram : 11/13/23 at 02:15 PM.

Update version info

Could you update the version number in Librarian.txt? It still says 1.0, which confuses Minion into always thinking that it's out of date.

Orionik Forum posts: 1 File comments: 9 Uploads: 0	Thank you very much @KomeSake for the translation, I have just updated the add-on with it. It should be soon available, it usually takes a few hours before getting validated. If anyone else want to suggest some translation for their language, don't hesitate to do it and suggest your translation like KomeSake did, I would gladly add them to the addon.

Thank you very much for your contribution, the game Elder Scrolls is famous precisely because of the huge world view, and having these books can help me to understand the world very well. And now with this marker system, it's fantastic! I made a Chinese plugin for your plugin, I hope more people will use it, thanks again for your work!

Yeah, I also thinks it makes sense so I have added this in the next version (v3.4) Although, I added this only for books which are not part of a collection (in the lore library). Because, these would be added back automatically in Librarian upon next login (or reload UI) as Librarian automatically gather all of the books from your eidetic memory during its initialization. And anyway, these books are always displayed in the language you use so they shouldn't cause an issue

I still have the backup saved variables, is there any way to piece them together at all? I am sorry it caused this issue. I have sent you a private message so we can go more in depth into this issue don't hesitate to answer me there .
