[REQUEST] Beancounter alike feature about aux-addon

[shirsig]

Hey. I know about beancounter/tsm accounting. The thing is, even though it comes bundled with auctioneer/tsm, because of the way the API works, this isn't really an auction house addon but more of a mailbox/tradeframe addon and I can't think of a good reason to build it into aux. The autumn semester's just started so I won't have time for it in the near future but I guess I could make an addon like that at some point. What's wrong with beancounter though, can't you use that?

Well, beancounter often fails to register the mails I'm opening. Using Postal btw

I don't think it's a good fit for aux as like I said it's more of a mailbox addon and also there's no reason to show it only at the auction house like aux.

In case someone else wants to make something like this here's what I think is the only way to reliably retrieve this information in combination with an auto opening addon:

local index
CreateFrame('Frame', InboxFrame):SetScript('OnUpdate', function()
	if index then
		if GetInboxInvoiceInfo(index) then
			local invoiceType, itemName, playerName, bid, buyout, deposit, consignment = GetInboxInvoiceInfo(index)
			local _, _, count = GetInboxItem(index)
			-- do stuff
			index = nil
		end
	else	
		for i = 1, GetInboxNumItems() do
			local _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, read = GetInboxHeaderInfo(i)
			if not read then
				GetInboxText(i)
				index = i
				return
			end
		end
	end
end)
