ItemCount

Discontinued.

ItemCount allows you to quickly share information about your inventory to another account so that other addons can use that data to, for example, refill stacks of crafted items.

This addon will not store anything in your saved variables, so all data must be updated in the same session as you wish to export it. Everything will be forgotten as soon as you relog or /reload.

Other addons can request this data through the global function _GetItemCount(itemId or itemLink). An integer with the amount of items found will then be returned.

You can share data with another account that has this addon installed too through /ic export charName. This will send all known data to charName through an addon channel and charName will get a confirmation box asking whether he or she wants to import the received data. The argument "charName" is optional and if this is empty you will get a popup with the data so you can manually copy (CTRL-C) and paste (CTRL-V) it to another client. To manually import data write /ic import.

Imported Data
Imported data can be stacked. So if you split your items over multiple characters you can export data, relog, export again and repeat.

An example of this cycle:
1 Scribe crafter on main account (called "MainScribe").
3 Glyph posters on secondary account (called "GlyphPosterOne", "GlyphPosterTwo", "GlyphPosterThree").
