The game Elite Dangerous generates a journal file while playing. Tools can use this data for their own purposes.
This library aims to provide an easy way to consume these journal events in a .NET environment.
Instantiate a JournalWatcher object. Call StartWatching() to start
monitoring the Elite Dangerous Save Games folder (where the journal files are created)
and register for events by calling:
JournalWatcher.GetEvent<TEventType>().Fired += MyEventHandler;
All events are automatically registered by a static method, you can find them in the namespace EliteJournalReader.Events.
When you're done, call StopWatching() to stop monitoring file changes.
The full documentation on all generated events can be found at: http://hosting.zaonce.net/community/journal/v18/Journal_Manual_v18.pdf (or the same as a Word document)
