# Elite Observatory **Core**
# Elite Observatory *Core*
Tool for reading/monitoring Elite Dangerous journals for interesting objects. Successor to the original Elite Observatory, rewritten from scratch using .NET 5.0 and AvaloniaUI.
## *IMPORTANT*
Observatory Core and it's associated plugins are currently in an alpha state and are neither feature-complete nor using a finalised UI. Over the coming weeks I will outline in detail what functionality is missing *but still planned*, and begin work on getting it to feature parity with the original Elite Observatory.
Ommissions to current functionality include:
* Voice notification
* Checks based on surface materials (yes, there are checkboxes for them in the Explorer setting, they do not do anything)
* Having an application icon
* Integration with Frontier's Companion API
* Integration with Telegram
* Data submission to IGAU
* More that I'm just not thinking of right now

The "Read All" button will read all journal files in the specified folder, handing their contents over to all loaded worker plugins. "Start Monitor" will begin watching files in the journal folder for changes, and pass new journal lines as they are created, as well as all changes to the status.json file, over to the worker plugins.
In addition to updating the content of their respective UI tabs, some workers can also send notifications, which will be distributed to all notifier plugins, as well as be passed to Observatory Core's native notification popup.
