Addon Packager Proxy
This is a tool designed to help authors of "addons" for the popular MMORPG "World of Warcraft" release their projects to both Curse/CurseForge and WowInterface, the two most popular sites for hosting releases for such projects.
The tool (currently) has some very specific usage requirements:
- The user needs to use Git.
- The user needs to push to both GitHub and CurseForge repositories.
- Alternatively use webhooks for CurseForge.
- The user needs to use Markdown for changelogs.
- Although changelogs are optional.
How it works
This application is utilizing GitHub webhooks, CurseForge's packager and a web application.
Here is a breakdown of how the entire process works:
- The user commits his/her changes locally and creates tags, the tags are used as version numbers/strings.
- The user pushes the commit(s) and tag(s) to GitHub.
- GitHub recognizes the tag(s) created, sends off a webhook to the application.
- The application notices the webhook and queues the addon.
- The user pushes the commit(s) and tag(s) to CurseForge.
- After some time, the application starts querying CurseForge to see if the packager has finished making a zip.
- The application then grabs the zip off CurseForge once it's ready.
- The application authorizes and uploads the addon to WowInterface.
