  Re: is the Peeron Database available?
 
(...) well, we update the master list, and I have a script that I can run against any number of inventories (or all of them), and update all the files automatically. (...) heh, it might defenitly be interesting to see another way of going at it, not (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: is the Peeron Database available?
 
(...) two reasons... first, MySQL wasn't installed on the server I set peeron up originally. and second, I need to learn a lot more SQL before I could use it effectivly... yes, it's in my Little Plan (tm), but need to find the time... :) Besides, (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: "Diffs" of the master list of numbers?
 
(...) How about a 24-hour-diff, and if the diff file is empty, just throw it away? That way, you would keep only the diffs in which something actually changed. What I'm doing at the moment is to download your master list and commit it to my CVS (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: is the Peeron Database available?
 
(...) Oops ;-) (...) So how do you do updates if, say, the name of one piece changes or if you make a picture of a new part that you haven't had in your inventories up to that date? I tried the perl-and-textfile solution myself, but the task of (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  nearly-complete inventories for sets from EBay?
 
Hi, I got a few sets from EBay that were marked as "complete", and, as far as I can see, they had all the right pieces to build at least the main model. Dou you accept inventories of those sets into the Peeron Database or have the sets be MISP? (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: is the Peeron Database available?
 
(...) Why not use MySQL for the backend and then you can just export the tables? KL (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: is the Peeron Database available?
 
(...) actually, the backend is completely custom written by me in perl, so there's no formal database to export... maybe one day I'll set up some sort of export function, that will take all the sets and dump them out into one big file... (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: "Diffs" of the master list of numbers?
 
(...) I thought of that, and I wouldn't mind doing it - except that I'm not sure what I'd diff it to - 24 hours ago? a week ago? last update? the master list is sometimes generated 5-6 times in an evening, if we're doing a lot of edits... I guess I (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  "Diffs" of the master list of numbers?
 
Hi, Would it be possible that, when the master list of numbers is updated, you could generate a diff to the next-older version? I have a few inventories on my laptop (which I *really* intend to post one of those days ;-)) that I would like to keep (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  is the Peeron Database available?
 
Hi, I guess the inventories on the peeron site are database based. Is it possible to (nightly?) export the data and make it available for automated processing, the way the lugnet set reference is made available? I'd love to have the inventories (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

  Re: Set inventory for 6096
 
(...) (much snipped) the entry for 6096 has been fixed, the others need to be, those were all submitted inventories that were done in a big batch, so scanning through them was nearly impossible... it should be fixed tonight. (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

  Re: Set inventory for 6096
 
(...) Um, Peeron doesn't use 6029, you say? But when I searched for 6029 there I got (and get) a whole slew of results in Pirates sets. (Actually, quite a few more matches than 6029a. . .) I originally listed these as one part in keeping with my (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)

  Re: Box scans for 8710 & 8035 Technic Expert Builder sets
 
Thanks, I've added these, the thumbnails will be generated shortly. Generally speaking, the front page of the instructions is the scan most preferred. Obviously some sets don't have instructions, so a box picture is 2nd best... Thanks so much and (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.scans)
 
  Box scans for 8710 & 8035 Technic Expert Builder sets
 
Here's two box scans. The database currently show ads for these sets. Generally speaking, which is preferable, box or ad? Set 8710 (URL) as a Supplementary Set, box says Expert Builder Parts Pack. Listed as 1981, box copyright is 1980. Listed 122 (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.scans)

ok, for some clarification... piece 4 6029 White Minifig Two Bones & Feathered Headdress is what you say, but to translate it to peeron, it should be... which? 4 bones or 8 bones? 4 headdresses or 2? I only see 3 bones in use in the picture on (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
