Albion-Sniffer-py is a packet Analyzer for Albion Online Client's market data using the Albion-Data-project through the Python programming language.
The Albion-Sniffer-py is a tool that works in combination with the Albion-Data-Project to retrieve market data that the Albion-Data-Project collects, it can retrieve Buy orders and sell orders and generally doesnot miss anything
these are the relevant information that you can access using Albion-Sniffer-py (Example code on how to do it is further down)
Order Id
Silver Per Unit
Total Silver
Item Amount
Item Tier
Order Type
Buyer/Seller Name
Item Enchantment
Item Quality
Order Expiry Date
this script was inspired by the AlbiPy Script that was published by hrichharms , the main diffrence between Albion-Sniffer-py and AlbiPy is that this script doesnot attempt to decrypt the market data that arrives to your pc, it utilizes the albion-data-project to do that which is alot better than what AlbiPy Does , threw testing AlbiPy will get 20-30 sell orders from the market and alot of times the Albipy doesnot work as intended due to data being moved around (example: you might try to access the order id and get the Silver per unit price) and the data being out of range
on the other hand Albion-Sniffer-py uses the albion-data-project to gather the data and decrypt it which threw my hours of testing it has always got all 50 sell orders instead of the 20-30 that albipy gets it has never in my testing faced any problem with data being moved around or not being assigned to its correct call (for example if you call for the order Id you will always get the order Id)
It utilizes the Albion-Data-Project which can be downloaded here: https://www.albion-online-data.com
This Script is only Limited by the Data that the Albion-Data-Project gives (which is The best Albion Online open source Market Data Sniffer api)
1- First you need to download the Albion Data Project which can be found here: https://www.albion-online-data.com or here: https://github.com/ao-data/albiondata-client/releases
2- After Downloading it and Fully Inistalling it -- IN ITS DEFULT PATH -- you can now Download the Albion-Sniffer-py and Use it
Note: If you Decide to store the Albion-Data-Project file into another Directory you will have to change the directory in the Albion-Sniffer-Py.py here:
3- Download the Albion-Sniffer-py.py File and put in in your Project Folder
4- The Code is Used As The Following Example:
from Albion-Sniffer-Py import *
import time
sniffer = Sniffer()
sniffer.start() # Starts Recording the Market Data
time.sleep(5) # The Ammount of time you want it to record for
sniffer.stop() # Stops Recording the Market Data
orders = sniffer.get_output() # Gets The Data Collected
for order in orders:
print(orders['Id'])
print(orders['UnitPriceSilver'])
print(orders['TotalPriceSilver'])
print(orders['Amount'])
print(orders['Tier'])
print(orders['IsFinished'])
print(orders['AuctionType'])
print(orders['HasBuyerFetched'])
print(orders['HasSellerFetched'])
print(orders['SellerCharacterId'])
print(orders['SellerName'])
print(orders['BuyerCharacterId'])
print(orders['BuyerName'])
print(orders['ItemTypeId'])
print(orders['ItemGroupTypeId'])
print(orders['EnchantmentLevel'])
print(orders['QualityLevel'])
print(orders['Expires'])
print(orders['ReferenceId'])Alternatively, the collected data, orders can be written to json simply by typecasting the sniffer data object to a string then writing it to file.
from Albion-Sniffer-Py import *
import time
sniffer = Sniffer()
sniffer.start() # Starts Recording the Market Data
time.sleep(5) # The Ammount of time you want it to record for
sniffer.stop() # Stops Recording the Market Data
orders = sniffer.get_output() # Gets The Data Collected
output_file = open("output.json", "w")
output_file.write(str(orders))
output_file.close()Note: The above code and AlbiPy in general can only capture market data that is received by the client while the thread is recording (between sniffer.start() and sniffer.stop()).
Id -> A unique id for the specific order
UnitPriceSilver -> The price buying or selling one item from the given market order
TotalPriceSilver -> The total amount of silver involved in the order
Amount -> The quantity of items being bought or sold in the order
Tier -> The tier of the item being bought or sold if applicable
IsFinished -> Seems more like a backend boolean for the developer's database but I'm not sure
AuctionType -> Whether this is a buy order or a sell order
HasBuyerFetched -> If the order is a buy order this is a boolean determining whether the buyer has fetched the order. This seems like a largely backend attribute.
HasSellerFetched -> If the order is a sell order this is a boolean determining whether the seller has fetched the order. This, again, seems like a largely backend attribute.
SellerCharacterId -> If the order is a sell order, this is the unique id of the character that posted the sale.
SellerName -> If the order is a sell order, this is the in game name of the character that posted the sale.
BuyerCharacterId -> If the order is a buy order, this is the unique id of the character that posted the buy order.
BuyerName -> If the order is a buy order, this is the in game name of the character that posted the buy order.
ItemTypeId -> This is the item type identifier. Example: Adept's Longbow with 1 level of enchantment = T4_2H_LONGBOW@1
ItemGroupTypeId -> Same as ItemTypeId without the enchantment difference
EnchantmentLevel -> The enchantment level of the item being bought or sold if applicable
QualityLevel -> The quality of the item being bought or sold expressed as an integer if applicable
Expires -> The expiry date of the order
ReferenceId -> To be totally honest, I have no idea what this is. Probably something for the backend database I'm not sure.
