Cemetech Support #5

Closed TC01 closed 10 years ago

TC01 commented 10 years ago

I think this is done now; finally gotten around to fixing the bugs with file infos for Cemetech.

All it's waiting on is approval from Cemetech staff that doing this sort of thing is actually okay, and then I'll merge, cleanup a few things, and then release 2.0, finally!

This will automatically fix #4.

TC01 commented 10 years ago

Kerm intends to write a script to make master.index on Cemetech a thing; so we'll probably hold off releasing 2.0 until that happens.

However, I'm going to go ahead and merge anyway, then work on the other minor improvements that are on the theoretical 2.0 roadmap in master/ while we wait around for the index file to happen.

If a master index for Cemetech isn't created by the time I actually have enough free time to release 2.0 (which probably won't be for a few months), I'll look into alternatives (generating the master index file myself weekly and sticking it up on a server, probably).

Need Omnimaga support as well? I could probably write something to give you support.

TC01 commented 10 years ago

Eeems: heh, nice timing there.

Omnimaga support would be fantastic; it's last other major TI calculator repository out there that I know of (other than maybe TIPlanet? There are probably other sites too I'm unaware of or have forgotten). All that I would really need would be a way to retrieve a list of all possible files in the archives (and get a URL and some kind of human-readable name).

I could do it by spidering like how Cemetech support is currently implemented, but obviously some kind of index file or something even more sophisticated would be ideal. :)

@TC01 Give me a format and I can make it so
