FFLogs Checker Plugin

FFLogs Checker Plugin is a developer-oriented tool that validates FFLogs data feeds and assesses raid performance metrics. It targets data engineers, tooling teams, guild analysts, and CI specialists who ingest FFLogs logs into pipelines, dashboards, or automated QA systems. The plugin compares retrieved values against configured expectations, flags anomalies, and emits structured outputs suitable for automation. By validating data early, teams reduce false positives, improve data quality, and gain reliable inputs for dashboards, alerting rules, and performance benchmarks across raids and patches.
Conceptually, the tool fetches data from FFLogs using region, time window, and fight identifiers, then extracts core metrics such as DPS, damage, encounter duration, and uptime. It applies rule-based checks (thresholds, ranges, sanity checks) and can perform optional batch processing and multi-fight comparisons. Outputs are deterministic and versioned, enabling reproducible checks across environments. Advanced users can enable trend analysis and anomaly scoring to surface subtle deviations that indicate data quality issues or balance changes.
Benefits include faster QA cycles, reliable performance signals for raid teams, and straightforward integration into CI/CD pipelines or data workflows. Builders gain a reusable validator for logs; analysts obtain per-fight breakdowns and anomaly flags; operators can export results to downstream systems or dashboards. The plugin is designed as a lean, API-first component that fits into automated data quality gates.
Core features cover API access to FFLogs, metric extraction, threshold-based validation, anomaly detection, and export formats (JSON/CSV). Use cases include automated validation during log ingestion, nightly performance checks, patch-by-patch benchmarking, and regression testing for tooling pipelines. The tool emphasizes deterministic results, clear error signaling, and compatibility with FFLogs data schemas and common raid metrics.
