Feature Request: Public Read-Only Market API

Summary
Add basic GET endpoints for the in-game market to allow community-run websites to fetch real-time price data and item availability.

Why it matters

  • Player Engagement: Community tools like price trackers and profit calculators keep players involved in the game economy even when they are offline.
  • Market Transparency: Provides a reliable reference for new players to avoid bad trades and helps stabilize the overall economy.
  • Community Support: By providing the data, the community will build the "Wiki" and "Market Dashboards" for you, saving the dev team significant UI/feature development time.

Technical Note
To protect the game's integrity, these would be Read-Only (GET requests). There would be no ability to post or fulfill orders via the API. Standard rate-limiting can be applied to ensure zero impact on server performance.

would love to use it in http://darkfallcompanion.se/
