Connect to AppCake's REST Api #3

Closed ThanosSiopoudis closed 11 years ago

The import functionality needs to connect to AppCake's REST api to fetch info on the game being imported.

The sequence goes like this:

Barrel checks the server for entries on the guessed game name
If the server returns no results, users get the choice to either create an entry (porting process) or search the server for a different name
If the server returns a result, the info is downloaded, along with the required engine, patches, etc
If there's more than one result for the game, the user gets a dropdown list of choices and selects one of the results
