As of Git Hash: 04cfe17, rAthena's item database has been converted to YAML! What this means: The item database being in YAML format means that the database is now much more human-readable. This allows for quick review, modification, and addition of items without having to memorize the CSV format or use any third party tools. The parser now also has much better error handling when reading items into memory so tracking down those pesky typos is a thing of the past! The update combines item_avail, item_buyingstore, item_delay, item_flag, item_nouse, item_stack, and item_trade databases into the item_db so there is much less searching around multiple databases when doing anything with items! As items are no longer defined in a single row, this means the flat file has grown in size. To ease the on load text editors for people's computers who may not have the horsepower we split the items as they are in game via Consumables, Equipment, and Etc. The Job restriction for items has been cleaned up so that custom masks don't have to be made and removes a horrible restriction for those adding custom classes to their servers. Now it's as easy as defining the EAJ_* constant... and that's it! The item combo system has had a massive cleanup in the background. We no longer do sketchy memory management and manipulation with a move to use standard libraries provided by C++11! As with any YAML conversion we have provided an option in the CSV2YAML tool built right into rAthena! Just build the CSV2YAML tool within Visual Studio or via Make and run the executable. The tool will provide you with general steps and convert your custom items right on over to the YAML format. No muss, no fuss! Something that was brought up in the Pull Request was the support for SQL. Many people were against the move to YAML because the support for SQL was compromised. Well, we are happy to say that SQL is still supported and isn't going anywhere! We've developed a new tool, YAML2SQL, which can convert the YAML item database into SQL format. This allows servers who utilize SQL to continue with this method. We've also gone a step further and provided a SQL View which will create a new compatibility table without breaking support for your Control Panel/databases. The SQL View is optional though once the Control Panel/database is setup to utilize the new table. The new and fuller item data in this table also provides much more detail to the item database than ever before! You can read more details in our README! What this means to developers: Pull Requests can be reviewed much quicker and much more simpler. Identifying the actual change to the item and easily verifying said change without having to count commas! Additional features being added to the item database no longer requires the development of a side database. A vast majority of the item data is now part of the item_db structure and can continue to grow in this format! Redefined Import System: Now that the item_db is in YAML format, the adjustment of items is much simpler. If a change is being made to an item only the parts that are being changed have to be defined in the import. Below are some examples: Adjusting Red_Potion weight to 10 and increasing the heal rate in the script. - Id: 501 Weight: 100 Script: | itemheal rand(100,120),0; Remove the Thief classes from being able to equip the Cap. - Id: 2226 Jobs: Assassin: false Rogue: false Thief: false Add a stack limit of 10 to Meat for inventory only. - Id: 517 Stack: Amount: 10 Inventory: true Check out the item_db documentation for further details! Thanks to @Lemongrass, @Capuche, and @Cydh for their help! 6 12 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I did not understand why they removed the SQL. Can anyone explain it to me? Also, mySQL queyring is easy to me. Or there is other system (just like workbench) to sort/filter the YAML? UPDATED: SORRY I did not read the whole message. Author said "SQL was compromised. Well, we are happy to say that SQL is still supported" But still I wonder which system do I need to use to filter the data in yml. Thanks.

Being an Old School SQL old man, i'm still getting used to it, but i do like it so far. Will this migration extend to mob_db too?, because now we have beautifull item_db.yml files and the old mob_db.txt (csv) files. It'll be great to do so for consistency and custimization (ie custom drops easyness), with a separated mob_db.yml, mob_db_mvp.yml and mob_db_champion.yml would be fantastic imo. Asking for a little help, i've loaded compatibility views in sql, but control panel still cannot read tiem_db (missing columns), what is the right support forum to ask for help on this? Congratulations and keep up with the excelent work!. Edited January 22, 2021 by Adimgar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea... I'm getting that same problem too. NOT A COMPUTER PERSON, just a noob trying to figure it out as well, so take this with a grain of salt: From what I can gather from Google and piece together from the rAthena documents, I think what those compatibility files did was take the item databases and create a "virtual" database that rearranges the tables in the order FluxCP wants them to be in (under Views). However, maybe a file in FluxCP itself needs to be changed? Seems that by default the program looks at (in my case) item_db_re and item_db2_re. However it now needs to look at (in my case) item_db_re_compat and item_db2_re_compat. So I've been spending extra free time the last few days looking in the various php files and seeing if anything like that is in there. Again: I'm doing a blind leading the blind thing here... so I'm probably completely wrong. But I figure trying is better than doing nothing, and maybe I'll stumble on the answer... or fall off the cliff.
