Auracle provides compact, customizable filtering and monitoring of buffs and debuffs.
Overview
Auracle's capabilities are organized roughly into "trackers", "windows" and "styles".
The most important of these is the "tracker", each of which can monitor a list of multiple auras (either buffs or debuffs, but not both at the same time). When any of those (de)buffs are found, the tracker lights up (or changes visually in any number of other interesting and configurable ways).
A "window" is just a collection of trackers that all watch the same unit. On a fresh installation, Auracle provides one window that watches "target", so any trackers in that window will activate according to the (de)buffs on your current target. You can create as many windows as you want, and each one can watch any unit you want (player, pet, focus, etc).
The visual aspects of windows and trackers are controlled by "styles". There is always a "Default" style (one each for windows and trackers), and you can create as many additional styles as you want.
Distribution & Translation
Please note that Auracle is kept current by the author on wowace.com, curse.com and wowinterface.com. If you get it from any other source, you are not guaranteed to get the latest version.
If you would like to help translate Auracle into other languages, please use the WoWAce Localization tool.
Getting Started
Since every role, class, spec and player will be interested in monitoring different (de)buffs, Auracle does not provide any trackers by default. The first thing you'll want to do, then, is add one.
To do this, open Auracle's configuration window, either with the chat command "/auracle" or from Interface Options->AddOns->Auracle. Select the "windows" tab to see your windows (you'll start with one, "Target") and their trackers (none yet). Select the light blue "(Add Tracker...)" option and click the button to add a new blank tracker to the window.
Click the new tracker, and then open its "Auras" tab. Set the type to "buffs" or "debuffs" according to what you want to monitor, and then type the names of as many auras as you want, one per line. Now, whenever your target has any of these (de)buffs applied, this tracker will light up and show the time remaining.
Configuration Ideas
Auracle is highly configurable; there are a great many ways you can set it up to display information however you want. Some ideas:

Very nice addon, I really like it and use it to keep track of short duration buffs like Rapid Fire and Call of the Wild.
One thing that is bugging me though: the behaviour I would like to see is that I see nothing at all when those buffs aren't there, and that the tracker pops up when the buff gets active. Now I can do that of course, except when I have a border enabled under "Window Styles" -> "Border". I can't find a way to not see that border when the buffs aren't active, the outline of said border is always visible. Is there a way to hide the border as well when you don't see the buffs because they aren't up, or isn't that feature implemented at all? |

Instead of disabling the spiral entirely, however, try opening the corresponding "Tracker Style", look under "Spiral" and check "Block External Cooldown". This should tell CooldownCount/OmniCC to ignore Auracle's spirals and get rid of the extra text. If that doesn't work, please post the name and version of any other cooldown-count related addons you use, and I'll see if there's a way to let Auracle block that one, too. |

Just started using this Addon, and it seems great. I'm using it to see my procs at the moment. However, I do have one question. For some reason I have multiple texts on eatch icon. On Brain Freeze for example, I can see the duration tick down, but the number "11" is placed ontop of it. For Fingers of Frost, I also have 2 countdowns, although they change at the same time. Is this a bug, or have I perhaps overlooked a setting?
Edit: It seems that the 11 is connected to the cooldown spiral. If I just disable the cooldown spiral, it works fine. But kind of a bummer, would've liked having the duration both in seconds and show the spiral, but this will do. I didn't think about it before, but perhaps this is an issue with Tukui, wich I'm using.

This thing is great. The use of borders in particular makes it a real winner. Would you ever consider implementing cooldown tracking? This could make it an incredibly powerful buff and action bar replacement.

Is there a way to modify the size of individual tracker windows instead of one size for all? I use Auracle to keep track of Art of War and Judgements of the Pure, but since I want the AoW tracker super huge, my JotP tracker is also super huge.
Awesome mod and keep up the good work! |

From your description:
"You could set up trackers for various raid debuffs which are visible when missing, but disappear completely when present. This becomes your "big brother" raid-leader view; if someone slacks and doesn't put up a debuff, that one pops up for you to holler at them, without having to look through the other 40-odd debuffs which are all correctly applied." I'm having trouble configuring a window to behave this way. How is it done? |

Druid Forms?
Would you be able to add a condition for the various druid forms so that a druid could show/hide certain windows depending on his or her form?
Debuffs available are different whether you're in cat form (form:3) or bear form (form:1). |
