Update no longer Functions

[Nathan3-14]

Update doesn't work now that the script tool has been changed and the url /data/roles.json doesn't exist.

I believe there is a pull request meant to fix this, but I cannot install the package itself locally.
note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. ERROR: Failed to build 'file:///C:/Users/nathan/Documents/botc/experimental_temp/botc_tokens_repo' when getting requirements to build wheel

[Tsubashi]

Yes, this is a known issue. I was waiting for an official release of the file based on comments by @Bra1n, but it is probably time to just build an alternate system.

[Nathan3-14]

Thanks!

[joernlenoch]

The data is still there but a bit more complicated to extract.

I've made myself a current JSON dump, but I will currently not risk posting it here in case of copyright issues. Will ask Bra1n tomorrow if there are any issues...

If you get hold of the roles dump, you can use this to create the tokens with a local copy..

botc_tokens update --output-dir ./inputs --reminders ./reminders.json -c dumped_roles.json

[Tsubashi]

Yep, I'm rewriting the tool to always require an input JSON, though it will take a URL as well as a local file. That way if TPI ever does publish an official list you can just point to that one. If not, you can just use things like Released As Homebrew.

20260203_roles.json

Asked and its fine. If you want to use the non "RaH" version you can just import this one.

There ist same base file (https://github.com/GrayPockets/Released-as-Homebrew/blob/main/Downloaded/data) which contains the role data.

[Nathan3-14]

Turns out TPI have got an official roles.json at https://release.botc.app/resources if it's in a similar format to the previous one

If this is still a problem (it is for me), it can be fixed in the helpers\wiki_soup.py file.
Original lines 25-32:

    def load_from_web(self):
            """Load the role data from the wiki."""
            roles_from_web = urlopen("https://script.bloodontheclocktower.com/data/roles.json").read().decode('utf-8')
            self.role_data = json.loads(roles_from_web)
            # Filter the roles
            self.role_data = [role for role in self.role_data if self._script_filter in role['version']]
            night_from_web = urlopen("https://script.bloodontheclocktower.com/data/nightsheet.json").read().decode('utf-8')
            self.night_data = json.loads(night_from_web)

Change to:

    def load_from_web(self):
            """Load the role data from the wiki."""
            roles_from_web = urlopen("https://release.botc.app/resources/data/roles.json").read().decode('utf-8')
            self.role_data = json.loads(roles_from_web)
            # Filter the roles
            self.role_data = [role for role in self.role_data if self._script_filter in role['edition']]
            night_from_web = urlopen("https://release.botc.app/resources/data/nightsheet.json").read().decode('utf-8')
            self.night_data = json.loads(night_from_web)

ie: change "script.bloodontheclocktower.com/data" to "release.botc.app/resources/data" in lines 27 and 31 and change 'version' to 'edition' in line 30.
