Plugin Autoupdater - Page 3

I've already tried adding empty gamedata file and the only differece is that now it downloads an another html code but not a real plugin's code.
I looked into the code and found that download processes for all files happen in one moment so maybe google refuses more than 1 connection at the moment?

Ok upon thinking about this.. why do you need a plugin to add autoupdate support to itself via code? Why not do it via some kind of configuration file.

i.e. to add support to autoupdate a plugin called abc.smx we go to data/autoupdate/abc.txt and it is a key-value file with the URL to the XML file?

Code:

//Filename: abc.txt
{
  "Plugins Repository"
  { 
    "http://localhost/plugins.xml"
   }
}

That way to add autoupdate support could be done to any plugin without having to edit the source code

.
------------------

You could try iterating the plugins with GetPluginIterator/MorePlugins/ReadPlugin then with GetPluginFilename see if there's any matches entries in data/autoupdate and if there is then you just associate them with it. GetPluginInfo or "sm plugins list" to get the version of the loaded plugin

.

That's an even better idea!

I've been waiting for something like this guys. Keep up the good work!

Tryed svn 2 http url:
http://code.google.com/p/showhealth/...wse/#svn/trunk
showhealth.smx: http://showhealth.googlecode.com/svn...showhealth.smx
showhealth.sp: http://showhealth.googlecode.com/svn.../showhealth.sp

Same result. Text in .sp and .smx files:

<HTML><HEAD><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">

Have you tried using code.google.com in the .sp and

Code:

<source>\p\showhealth\source\browse\trunk\scripting\showhealth.sp</source>
// etc

in the xml?

exvel · 05-11-2009 , 12:14 Re: Plugin Autoupdater

http://code.google.com/p/showhealth/.../showhealth.sp is incorrect page, it shows info about file.
This one is a direct link: http://showhealth.googlecode.com/svn.../showhealth.sp and I tested plugin with it.
Also version.xml downloads well so I think links are correct. Mike, please figure it out. I am sure that something wrong inside plugin's downloading code. Maybe it is better to make a line for downloading-files so they won't download at the same time.

MikeJS · 05-11-2009 , 13:43 Re: Plugin Autoupdater

Updated the plugin so it actually works with something other than XAMPP (use "/" rather than "\" in the xml file now). Also added a public cvar because I forgot to add it before.
