This is the documentation for how to take data from an ED FCMaterials.json
file and properly structure it for sending to EDDN.
Please consult EDDN Schemas README for general documentation for a schema such as this.
If you find any discrepancies between what this document says and what is defined in the relevant Schema file, then you should, in the first instance, assume that it is the Schema file that is correct. PLEASE open an issue on GitHub to report any such anomalies you find so that we can check and resolve the discrepancy.
The data source for this schema is the file FCMaterials.json. That it has
been freshly written is signalled by the ED Journal event FCMaterials.
NB: This schema is not, currently, for sending CAPI /market-sourced data
about these materials.
So, monitor the Journal as normal, and when you see a FCMaterials event open
the FCMaterials.json file for reading, read it, and close it again. Use the
data you got from reading this file, not merely the Journal event.
Your message should primarily be the contents of this file, with the addition
of any augmentations, as noted below.
Please read horizons and odyssey flags in the Developers' documentation.
You MUST always set these as per the relevant section of the Developers' documentation.
The advice above for Senders, combined with the actual Schema file should provide all the information you need to process these events.
