This is a test instance of Bifrost

Alpha 3 tests the new retry logic which will make up to 3 total attempts for ESI requests should ESI return any internal server errors instead of expected success responses.

Additionally, a major refactor has been completed which has made the internals of how we request ESI entities like alliances, corporations, and characters easier to use and more in-line with best practices. Our callback method, which handles the login, has also been refactored as well to be far easier to read and understand the various scenarios when logging in such as a character already has an account, or they are a new character, or they're being linked to an account, etc.

To participate in the test, simply login with EVE Online and play around with the character linking system. You can link characters to an account, then logout, login with a character not yet linked and then try to link your previous logged in characters to the new account to see how well transferring characters between accounts behaves. Try to break it.

Keep an eye on the metadata on the auth page that shows when your character information was last updated, your data should update at a rate of:

• Faction Information: 24 hours
• Alliance Information: 24 hours
• Corporation Information: 24 hours
• Character Information: 30 days (ESI has a really long cache for this)
• Affiliations: No longer than 1 hour and 10 minutes

There is much more work to be done, this is a very basic implementation of the foundations built so far. Keep an eye on the Autumn Discord for details!
