My goal is to pull XML data from the API and load it to a sql server database. The frist step I'm attempting here is to access the data and display it. Once I get this to work I'll loop through each row and insert the values into a sql server database. When I try to run the code below nothing happens and when I paste the url directly into the browser I get this error
"2010-03-08 04:24:17 Wallet exhausted: retry after 2010-03-08 05:23:58. 2010-03-08 05:23:58"
To me it seems that every iteration of the foreach loop makes a call to the site and I get blocked for an hour. Am I retrieving data from the API in an incorrect manner? Is there some way to load the data into memory or an array then loop through that?
Here's the bit of code I hacked together.
using System;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Xml;
using System.Data;
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
string userID = "123";
string apiKey = "abc456";
string characterID = "789";
string url = "http://api.eve-online.com/char/WalletTransactions.xml.aspx?userID=" + userID + "&apiKey=" + apiKey + "&characterID=" + characterID;
XmlDocument xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
xmldoc.Load(url);
XmlNamespaceManager xnm1 = new XmlNamespaceManager(xmldoc.NameTable);
XmlNodeList nList1 = xmldoc.SelectNodes("result/rowset/row", xnm1);
foreach (XmlNode xNode in nList1)
{
Response.Write(xNode.InnerXml + "<br />");
}
}
catch (SqlException em)
{
Response.Write(em.Message);
}
}
}
Here's a sample of the xml
<eveapi version="2">
