RCLootCouncil Classic

World of Warcraft Classic port of RCLootCouncil.

Latest release is available at Curse.

The RCLootCouncil Wiki is also the official documentation source of features, although a few things have been removed from this version (see below).

Description

This project is an direct extension to RCLootCouncil, so that it may be updated without any changes to the core project. Instead patches, hooks, and replacements are implemented to modify the core addon to function within the Classic environment.

This also allows for future updates of RCLootCouncil to be easily implemented, as it's mostly core features that need changing for Classic.

Changes

The following features are changed from the retail version of RCLootCouncil:

Versioning
In the version checker ("/rc v") the version of this module will show up. The Core RCLootCouncil version is shown when mousing over a player.
Master Loot
The options menu have been updated with settings of old regarding Master Looting.
Auto Pass
Updated for Classic. Auto passes are only performed on items the player can't equip, as feedback has convinced me that armor type based auto passing doesn't fit Classic.

Removed

The following features are completely removed:

Loot Status
Not used with Master Looting.
Personal Loot
Removed everything related to personal loot.
Azerite Armor
No longer an option in the "More Buttons" options.
Spec Icon
As there's no clear definition of a spec (nor really the need to have it) the spec icon option has been removed.
Role Column
There's no concept of roles in Classic, and no clear cut way of determining a candidate's role based on their talents, so I decided to remove it completely.

Git Flow

RCLootCouncil Classic is developed using the Git Flow branching model.

Developers

For those interested, RCLootCouncil Classic contains several development scripts located in the .scripts folder. Most of these relies on a .env file being present in the root folder, which can contain the following fields:

WOW_LOCATION="wow_path"
WoW install location - used in the deploy script to copy the development files into the WoW AddOns folder.
CF_API_KEY="key"
CurseForge API key. Used by the release script to upload new files. You probably don't need this.
GITHUB_OAUTH="key"
GitHub OAUTH key. Used by the release script to manage GitHub releases. You probably don't need this.

Build process

RCLootCouncil uses slightly modified version of BigWigsMods release.sh which allows it to run on Git submodules, and more importantly, fetch the localization files for the retail version of RCLootCouncil bundled into the addon. See build.sh for details.

Dependencies

The scripts are developed for use on MS Windows mainly due to the use of robocopy. Other tools used include git, bash and sed.
