!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!! STOP !!! !! These are not valid MarkDown comments. !! You MUST read, comply with, and then remove all of these lines to have a !! valid Schema README file. 1. Be careful if using any existing Schema, or its README, as reference for a new Schema. Some of them will have some departures from best practices for historical reasons. It's usually not easy to co-ordinate all Listeners and Senders smoothly updating to a new version of a Schema, so less than ideal requires/optional/disallowed definitions might be present in older Schemas. [The main Schema documentation](../README-EDDN-schemas.md) is the canonical authority. 2. Replace all instances of `NewJournalEvent` with the name of the actual Journal event's Schema you are documenting. This should have the case preserved as per how it appears in actual game Journal files. 3. Replace all instances of `newjournalevent` with the lower-case folded version of this Schema's Journal event name. 4. For new Journal-based schemas no key renames should be necessary. If there are no renames of key names for this Schema, then remove the `Key Renames` section. Where such renames *are* required do **NOT** attempt to list them all here. That would just require updating them both here and in the actual Schema. If there are any, then the affected property object should contain a key named `renamed` with its value being the original key name in the source data, e.g. in the commodity/3 schema a Journal `StarSystem` is renamed to `systemName` so we have: ```json "message": { "type" : "object", "additionalProperties" : false, "required" : [ "systemName", "stationName", "marketId", "timestamp", "commodities" ], "properties" : { "systemName": { "type" : "string", "renamed" : "StarSystem", "minLength" : 1 }, ``` 5. Do **NOT** remove the `horizons and odyssey flags` section. It is mandatory that they are allowed (but are optional) in any Journal-based EDDN Schema. 6. If both: 1. either the source Journal event contains information that includes the System name (possibly as `StarSystem` or `SystemName`), **OR** the source data contains a `SystemAddress` value, 2. and a `StarPos` array is *not already present* in the source data. then you MUST include the `StarPos` section in `Augmentations` and add `StarPos` to the `required` message properties in the Schema file. If neither key is in the source data then remove the `StarPos` section from this document and the Schema file. 7. Do **NOT** add an 'Elisions'/'Removals' section. Leave the Schema as the sole reference for any data that is in the source but should not be in the final EDDN message. The line: # EDDN NewJournalEvent Schema below should ultimately be the first line in this file, after required edits. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! # EDDN NewJournalEvent Schema ## Introduction Here we document how to take data from an ED `NewJournalEvent` Journal Event and properly structure it for sending to EDDN. Please consult [EDDN Schemas README](./README-EDDN-schemas.md) 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](https://github.com/EDCD/EDDN/issues/new/choose) to report any such anomalies you find so that we can check and resolve the discrepancy.** ## Senders The data source for this schema is the ED Journal event `NewJournalEvent`. ### Key Renames Some key names in this Schema are different from how they appear in the source Journal data. Look for keys where the object contains a `renamed` key - the value is what the name would have been in the source Journal data. ### Augmentations #### horizons and odyssey flags Please read [horizons and odyssey flags](../docs/Developers.md#horizons-and-odyssey-flags) in the Developers' documentation. #### StarSystem You MUST add a `StarSystem` string containing the name of the system from the last `FSDJump`, `CarrierJump`, or `Location` event. **You MUST apply a location cross-check, as per [Other data augmentations](../docs/Developers.md#other-data-augmentations).** #### StarPos You MUST add a `StarPos` array containing the system co-ordinates from the last `FSDJump`, `CarrierJump`, or `Location` event. **You MUST apply a location cross-check, as per [Other data augmentations](../docs/Developers.md#other-data-augmentations).** ## Listeners The advice above for [Senders](#senders), combined with the actual Schema file *should* provide all the information you need to process these events.
