Useful Tool: EMC Shopkeeper

is it intended that the chart section won't update past the day of the latest player-to-player transaction?

my last transaction was on Aug 8th, but I keep voting every day, so my rupee balance graph is not up to date.

You can select entire history.

I did, and it still doesn't show that part of the history

and before somebody asks, yes, I updated the database just before that

The charts only take shop transaction into account. So, someone will have to buy/sell to your shop in order for the graph to "update" to your latest rupee balance.

Basically, EMC Shopkeeper only puts shop and payment transactions into its database. The other transactions it only keeps a tally of, so that means that they are not reflected in the Charts tab.

So do I really need to go through 36 pages of comments or can someone include how to use this .jar file in the wiki? It has how to create an alt, but nothing on how to make the jar work.

I click the auto run option up above and it just give me xml with no data

**edited to note that I did use the FAQ project page. The directions for the log and how to save and then execute did not work**

You need to run it with Java.

(Windows 10 instructions)

1. Right-click shopkeeper.jar and select "Open with" and then "Choose another app."
2. Make sure "Always use this app to open .jar files" is checked.
3. Click "more apps," scroll all the way down, and then select "Look for another app on this PC."
4. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Java\jre(whichever version you have)\bin\javaw.exe and select it (javaw.exe).
5. Done

Yeah I did all that and it does nothing. Not sure the deal here. My jre is up-to-date as well... hmmmm

If you install Java by going to the java.com website, then all you should need to do is double-click on the EMC Shopkeeper JAR file to launch it.

This I know, but didn't work. I have the latest version. I even tried a rollback. This is why I was looking for additional guidance in the wiki...

I had a similar problem with my laptop when I tried to install OptiFine. Try this method:

Windows key -> type “cmd” -> enter

Type this:

java -jar C:\(path to your shopkeeper.jar)

And press enter.

Example:
java -jar C:\Users\Zomberina\Downloads\shopkeeper.jar

You can find the path of your application by going to its location in File Explorer and by clicking in the address bar at the top.

Your solution - for now - may be to create a text file and put that same command in it. You can rename the text file from example.txt to example.exe and it should run. I can’t test it at the moment, though.

usually it is .bat for that kind of usage, afaik

agreed, but it works same either way in this case

does this still work

Yes, and it’s a great tool.

is there an updated version or this version?

The February 2021 version in the original post is the most up to date.
