Remote game repository #1212

Open rygos opened 7 years ago

rygos commented 7 years ago

The user can use an INI file to specify addresses for several repository servers, which can display the games contained within the player in a dedicated interface.

If you are looking for one of these games, you can download and start them directly in the player. Possibly also similar to the webplayer, without the download of the complete game but only the files, which are also needed in the respective moment.

The interface should have at least the following:

Last added games
Last published games
Probably the most important: A search.

Because this is mostly a server-side problem feel free to propose a JSON-REST-API for communicating with the server. For writing a test-client (a simple desktop-app game browser e.g.) this will be needed anyway.

rygos commented 7 years ago

Okay, I'll provide the following for this:

RESTful JSON API documentation
A test server with existing data. Maybe i can provide some something for this =P
A test application. Problem will be, however, that I can not serve with a C ++ Desktop App. I would build a testclient for time reasons with c # or vb.net.

Ghabry commented 7 years ago

The language of the test-app doesnt really matter. Just for having something before the slow coding in C++ starts :D

Booth of them are at a early stage. But growing =)
