SkyDriver is a companion application for Hypixel Skyblock, currently in early development.

Features

Important

There is a big update in v0.0.4 with a new prediction algorithm. To read more about it go to notes

Warning

Do not depend on the predictions. They are purely for providing broad insights into the market.
Always do your own research before flipping lots of coins.

The primary focus of SkyDriver is on bazaar data and flipping, with plans for future expansion. If you have ideas or suggestions for improvements, please open an issue.

SkyDriver generates a detailed breakdown of bazaar data sourced from the Hypixel API. This data is accessible via a public endpoint, meaning you do not need a Hypixel API key to utilize SkyDriver.

The current output format is as follows:

• Command:

SkyDriver -limit 100000 -sell 100000

• Output:

Usage

To use SkyDriver, download the latest release from releases.

Tip

If you have the latest version of go installed, you can run go install -ldflags="-s -w" github.com/kociumba/SkyDriver to install SkyDriver and automatically add it to path.

On windows the built binary will lack an icon and any other typical data when istalled this way.

You can run SkyDriver to retrieve a list of the 10 products with the highest price differences, or use the -limit option to filter items within your flipping budget.

Use the -sell option followed by the number of sales per week to filter out items with fewer sales than specified.

New in v0.0.4

The -search option allows you to search for items by part of their name. For example, searching for flawless will include all items with "flawless" in their name. To display a specific number of items, use the -max flag to set the maximum number of items to display.

With the release of v0.0.4, you can now set these flags in the cli interface.

If a value of the arguments is not passed, SkyDriver will prompt you to enter it in. This can be skipped by just leaving the prompts blank or passing the -skip flag.

New in v0.0.6

You can now use the -json flag to export results in JSON in this schema. This is all of the data shown in the normal table output. The output is in a human readable format and ready for processing in tools like jq.

Tip

The -json flag disables the prompts so you will have to set the parameters using other flags.

New in v0.0.7

The prediction output now uses smoothing functions to normalize the values. You can now choose between different smoothing functions using the -smooth flag:

• none: Raw values without modification (Skydriver experience before v0.0.7)
• sigmoid: Sigmoid function (The default if no -smooth flag is passed in, seemd to give the best results)
• tanh: Hyperbolic tangent function
• saturating: Saturating linear function
• piecewise: Piecewise smoothing function

All smoothing functions are documented in detail in notes.md.

New in v0.0.8

The app now uses a configuration file to store the prediction weights. The file is located in ~/.skydriver/config.toml That is C:\Users\<username>\.skydriver\config.toml for windows users. Right now only the wights for the prediction are configurable but there are plans to add more, like for example themes.

Examples

SkyDriver -search flawless -max 100

This command will display up to 100 items that contain the word "flawless" in their name.

SkyDriver -json -search flawless -max 100 | jq '.results | length'

This command will pipe the output from SkyDriver into jq and return the number of search results found on the bazaar.

SkyDriver -limit 10000000 -sell 100000 -max 100

This command will display the top 100 items that have more than 100,000 sales per week and a sell price below 10,000,000.

Note

SkyDriver filters items that have less than 100 buy and sell price, as well as items that are sold less than 10 times a week.

This behaviour is turned off when searching and only items with 0 sell price and 0 buy price are filtered.

Pro tip 😎

[!TIP] Run SkyDriver -max 10000000 to show a very long table of all the items on the bazaar.

FAQ (not actually because this has 0 users 😭)

Q: Why?
A: I enjoy command line interfaces, and retrieving data this way feels more intuitive to me. 🙂

Q: Why not create a mod?
A: I am most familiar with Go, and the Java ecosystem is a shithole (my condolences to all java devs out there 💀).

Q: How do I [blank]?
A: If you are having trouble with using SkyDriver, read any resource out there on cli apps and if you get past opening the app and your issues persists, please open an issue

Q: What is the prediction?
A: The prediction comes from data collected through the bazaar API and helps you figure out if flipping an item will be profitable. If the prediction is positive, it means you're likely to make a profit; if it's negative, it's probably not worth it. The bigger the number, the higher the expected profit. Confidence shows how many of the seven internal indicators agree on whether the item will be profitable or not. For more info, check out the model

Caution

This model was made by me (a dumbass) and you should not soly rely on it. If you loose all your coins because you bet on something SkyDriver said was going to be profitable, that's on you.
