Elite Dangerous Market Connector 5.3.4

What Is Elite Dangerous Market Connector?

Elite Dangerous Market Connector ("EDMC") is a third-party application for use with Frontier Developments' game "Elite Dangerous". Its purpose is to facilitate supplying certain game data to, and in some cases retrieving it from, a number of websites and other tools.

To achieve this it utilises the Journal Files written by the game when played on a PC. It also makes use of Frontier's Companion API ("Frontier's CAPI"), accessible once you've authorised this application.

EDMC has a plugin system which many other developers have made use of to extend its functionality.

Find out more on the EDMC Wiki.

NB: This application is of no use with a Console game account. We now test against, and package with Python 3.10.x. As a consequence of this we no longer support Windows 7, due to Python 3.10.x itself not supporting Windows 7.

As has become routine now, various anti-virus software are reporting a false positive on our installer and/or files it contains. I've pre-emptively uploaded the installer to VirusTotal if you want to check what it's saying. Please see our Troubleshooting/AV-false-positives FAQ for further information.

Release 5.3.4 (VirusTotal)

Whilst EDMarketConnector.exe was fixed for the Odyssey Update 11 difference in Journal file names, EDMC.exe was not.  If you're wondering, that's the command-line utility that, for instance, Trade Computer Extensions uses to obtain data. Anyone not using at least 5.3.3 and playing Odyssey needs to update!

  • Use the new common function for finding latest journal file in EDMC.py.
  • Quietens some NavRoute related logging for the benefit of EDMC.py.  This is now at DEBUG level, rather than INFO.
