Live Events from the Elite Dangerous Data Network
Travel journals, discovery logs and market information transmitted by players into a central data feed to update star maps, prices, route plotters and more.
This is a live monitoring board for that data.
Javascript modules cannot load from file:// URLs, so you need a webserver for the html directory. One simple way is to use Python's HTTP server module:
git clone https://github.com/HansAcker/EDDN-RealTime
cd EDDN-RealTime/html
python3 -m http.server
Then point your browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/. You can edit the files locally while the data websocket still connects to the server at eddn-realtime.space.
To run the websocket service, it is easy to set up a local environment to install the required packages:
cd EDDN-RealTime/eddnws
python3 -m venv venv ## alternative: virtualenv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 ./eddnws.py -v
Then just change the socketUrl option in the index.html to
ws://127.0.0.1:8081.
