Catalog Search Script

Hello,
I’m writing a automatic clothing script for my plugin.
(Like Roblox’s Avatar Shop, But Text Version.)

function listCatalog(typeId,maxSearch) --I will use typeId variable later.
local search = 0
local id = 1
while wait() do
	if search > maxSearch then
		break
	end
		local ok,item = pcall(function()
			return market:GetProductInfo(id,Enum.InfoType.Asset)
		end)
		print(item.AssetId)
		if item and ok then
			search = search + 1
			print(id)
		end
			
		id = id + 1
		
	
  end
end

But,this search takes long time. I want my script faster.

I saw a solution from here:

But I don’t want use another web service. There is a way to make script faster?

(I think Http Service will solve my problem, but I need some tips for this.)

How would I search for a UGC item in a script?

I’m pretty sure you need another site. You can learn more about HTTPService here: link

Ok. I used JavaScript Host Servce called glitch.

There is my script now:

function listCatalog(dressId,maxSearch)
local search = 0
local id = 1

local appName = "roblox-http-service"
local baseUrl = "https://"..appName..".glitch.me/catalog/json"

local out = http:JSONDecode(http:GetAsync(baseUrl))

print(out)
print("------------------------------------")
print(unpack(out))

end

And my result: (output may be messy :confused: )

table: 0xb3c975f9899a6e27

But, I want to seperate this tables to unpack it and get data. How can I do?

Edit: I rewrited this script like this:

function listCatalog(dressId,maxSearch)
local search = 0
local id = 1

local appName = "roblox-http-service"
local baseUrl = "https://"..appName..".glitch.me/catalog/json"

local out = http:JSONDecode(http:GetAsync(baseUrl))

print(out)
print("Type:".. type(out))
print("------------------------------------")
print(unpack(out))
print("Type:".. type(unpack(out)))
print("------------------------------------")
print(unpack(out).Name)


end

And result is this:

Now that you have a table of tables, you will have to iterate through that table using

for index, value in pairs(out) do
    print(index.Name) -- whatever else you want from the table
end

Yep, that worked but I changed like this:

for index,value in pairs(out) do
	print(value.Name)
end

But thanks!

Oops, that was an error on my part. Glad you spotted it though :sweat_smile:
