Quest database

[pmauldin]

Similar to #16, it would be nice to add a dataset for quests to osrsbox-db. The data on the wiki for quests is pretty well structured, so that portion shouldn't be too difficult.

I'm working on a tool that needs an API for OSRS quests, and to my surprise I couldn't find anything online that exists for that! So I'd love to help contribute to this project so more people can have access to it.
Tomorrow I'll clone the repo and spend some time digging through to get an understanding of how everything works, then I think it would be great to discuss how this work can be planned and broken up into separate work items.

Hey @pmauldin - thanks for opening this issue, which formalizes our previous discussion about adding the quest dataset to the osrsbox-db project. We should keep this issue open as the base issue for adding the quest data, and open any additional issues for tracking/adding any major tasks. I will add some issues soon that will document some tasks I will tackle relating to this project goal.

@osrsbox Hey there! Wanted to let you know that I've started to do some of the work around parsing the wiki entries for quests on my fork. It's not quite ready for a PR yet, but I do have a branch up with the initial code and generated json files (under docs/quests-json). When you have some time, please take a look and let me know what you think. If it seems like I'm going in the right direction, I can keep working on the other fields.

Just to keep everyone in the loop... The idea of the quest database is still something that I want to add to the project... it is just difficult to keep the project up-to-date weekly and is taking a lot of my time. This weeks update took nearly 4 hours due to major OSRS Wiki changes. Nevertheless, since the RESTful API release has been somewhat smooth, and is complete.. this issue is back on the table to get done. The following steps outline my plan:

• Add schema-quests.json as a Cerberus schema to the schema repository (see: https://github.com/osrsbox/schemas)
• Add quests_api to the osrsbox directory, and package, that matches the Cerberus schema
• These were both done in the past, but the project updates (switching to Cerberus instead of JSON Schema, resulted in changes) have required a rewrite of these, previously implemented, solutions
• Start development (branch?) of this repository that includes a builder/quests module to extract and parse quest data from the wiki to this project

Expect to see some issues being posted that link to this issue, to get the all rolling on implementing the quest database.
