ABOUT
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Setup a MYSQL database server
|
This is the MegaGlest master server. MegaGlest (http://megaglest.org) is a
|
||||||
|
libre software cross platform real-time strategy game.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This master server does the following:
|
||||||
|
· publish game hosts (when a user decides to host)
|
||||||
|
· list hosted games (HTML, CSV, JSON output)
|
||||||
|
· list recently hosted gamed (HTML output) - this code is currently disabled
|
||||||
|
· list available game mods (CSV output)
|
||||||
|
· provide a version check for game installations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It uses a standard PHP/MySQL setup to achieve this. When instances of MegaGlest
|
||||||
|
engine based games publish their game information, they do so by pushing it to
|
||||||
|
this web server in regular intervals. Stale entries are removed when the next
|
||||||
|
client requests the list. When game instances retrieve the list of hosted games
|
||||||
|
or available game mods, they do so by pulling this information from the server.
|
||||||
|
Game and master server communicate using HTTP. The client sends requests by
|
||||||
|
HTTP GET passing along URL parameters while the server responds in a CSV format
|
||||||
|
or single field plain text. The version check is currently implemented as plain
|
||||||
|
text files (which use symbolic links for deduplication purposes) on the server.
|
||||||
|
This may be replaced by a single configurable PHP script in the future.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The MegaGlest Team hosts a live copy of this code at
|
||||||
|
http://master.megaglest.org
|
||||||
|
Please do not use this instance for your tests, but set up a copy of your own.
