add support for other call lookup sources? #352
Comments
HamQTH would be another good potential data source, if you're thinking about adding them. |
TODO with this change: remove deprecated |
|
Callook not needing a login is a massive plus |
yeah, I think in the default config, the fallback order should be:
this would allow people to choose the better data sources if they want to pay $$ (qrz) or make an account (hamqth), but still allow some lookup via callook with no creds. not sure if we should do a fallback on callsign not found, or just on credentials not found. thoughts? |
Both, since someone may have qrz but not hamqth, requiring callook for every notfounds on qrz Might be good idea to add commands (or flags) to directly look on a specific data source |
also qrzcq docs |
could we add examtool’s lookup? It’s a json output, and we were able to get it, to update the ULS database every 10 minutes so freshly granted callsigns are mostly in there. a example call is https://alpha.exam.tools/api/uls/lookup/wy4rc |
we'll consider it. Is there documentation of the API somewhere? |
not really, but you can give it a FRN, callsign, or ULS license key. eg. https://exam.tools/api/uls/lookup/kd7bbc and https://exam.tools/api/uls/lookup/0006800387 and https://exam.tools/api/uls/lookup/526662 all load the same thing |
what about documentation of what the response can contain or how it errors? |
For many reasons, we wouldn't add this as a a direct lookup source, but we'd build a "is my call granted" type of command, so that people who freshly passed their exam/upgrade or changed their call could check if it's in the system. Conditional on obtaining documentation on the API, we'd add this. |
Moved the call check command to this new issue: #382 |
