SQL write #47

Closed Mastergalen closed 11 years ago

Mastergalen commented 11 years ago

Could you add it so that it writes all the Factions data to a SQL server every few, so that it can be shown on a website, e.g. for stats.

I've done this with Towny on my site for example: http://minecraft-techworld.com/towns

The flat file storage for factions still stays the same, just that there is an exact copy of it made over to the SQL servers every few hours.

That's a good idea.

Towny already has built in mysql - not sure why you would write a seperate plugin for it considering you can configure it to store everything on mysql.

The main issue with factions on mysql is the way information is stored: while I have a rudimentary version of this on a very old private build of factionsplus, I eventually scrapped it as too difficult to implement: I'll take another look at it however since the project involved converting completely off the flatfile system rather than merely copying from flatfile which should be simpler.

Any updates on this?

markhughes commented 11 years ago

It is a lot of work to do, and not a high priority thing right now.

Maybe lodge the ticket at http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/factionsplus/tickets/ and I'll be able to keep on-top of it.

If you're still interested in this happening, make a ticket at http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-mods/factionsplus/tickets/ and I'll make it happen when possible.
