| 07:08.29 | allejo | wooo autoreport is at 90% of match reports from the last 200 matches :D |
| 07:09.08 | Constitution | ~allejo++ |
| 07:09.45 | allejo | it looks so beautiful :') |
| 07:10.12 | Constitution | is there a way to run it on non-official servers just for the benefit of the simpler slash commands (and maybe team mottos)? |
| 07:10.47 | Constitution | or does it need a connection to bz-owl to have any functionality |
| 07:11.05 | allejo | for mottos yea |
| 07:12.46 | allejo | brad would need to add the IP of the server to allow getting mottos or disabling the IP check for requesting mottos |
| 07:22.58 | Constitution | what about just for the commands and match recording? I want to run some funmatch servers for the doubles tournament and it would be nice if the commands are what players are used to |
| 07:24.53 | allejo | I could add a config option to disable match reporting/ignore the lack of a bz-owl counter part |
| 07:26.00 | allejo | actually, why not just use the full plugin? all the plugin does is submit post queries to a specified url and expects some information back |
| 07:27.00 | allejo | could disable the expectation of retrieving json information or get a dump of team mottos |
| 07:46.19 | Constitution | so set up a dummy URL that sends back nothing? |
| 07:46.57 | Constitution | or do you mean just comment it out |
| 07:47.52 | allejo | you could have a dummy URL to send back nothing, you'll just get errors in the logs. your doubles tournament will get some data, no? |
| 07:48.23 | allejo | the plugin records data about caps and the players who played. you can create your php file on your website to accept that information |
| 07:48.31 | allejo | and generate a table or whatever |
| 07:49.16 | allejo | the only troublesome part about that is the plugin will expect to get mottos from that URL also; would be trivial to add a config option to disable that functionality though |
| 07:52.00 | allejo | err... don't think I used trivial correctly |
| 08:07.05 | Constitution | oh? well, not all the matches will be on my servers, so I can't depend on that data for automatic entry. easiest at this point would be if the commands and recording functionality worked without the web site |
| 08:08.03 | Constitution | scratch that? easiest yet would probably be just to get brad to add my server as official for the duration of the event, thereby creating no additional work for you :P |
| 08:17.21 | allejo | I'll add some config options to disable certain options of the plugin regardless. i'm sure they'll be useful for others in the future |
| 08:17.25 | allejo | :) |
| 08:17.50 | Constitution | thanks. just hoping for a familiar experience during the event |
| 08:20.37 | allejo | i'll make the changes in a bit or later today, depending on when I crash :p |
| 08:22.36 | Constitution | k |
| 12:43.28 | blast007 | Constitution: if it's not all going to be on your server, then why would you want to run the plugin on your server and not the others? wouldn't that be confusing for the users? |
| 14:45.54 | BulletCatcher | In the plugin PHP script, checking against $ALLOWED_IPS only for query=reportMatch (not teamNameQuery, teamDump) should safely provide support for unofficial servers. |
| 15:08.59 | blast007 | or perhaps better would be to whitelist allowed operations so that you don't inadvertantly expose too much information later if additional operations are added |
| 15:09.52 | blast007 | (too much info or write operations, I should have said) |
| 15:20.39 | brad | ~allejo++ |
| 16:38.25 | allejo | I'll modify the PHP script to allow retrieval of mottos without checking the IP |
| 18:22.51 | Constitution | blast007: official match servers already run leagueOverSeer which implements custom commands like /countdown, /pause, /resume, etc? that's why I want to run the plugin on my server as well so the commands are the same |
| 18:33.58 | blast007 | Constitution: so you're running the Double Tournament partially on official GU Match server and partially on non-match servers you're going to be running just for the tournament? so once again, consistency... |
| 19:05.10 | Constitution | well, there may not be enough official servers, so I want to have spares just in case. can you think of a better solution? |
| 19:07.18 | Constitution | worst case scenario will be that there are 16 simultaneous matches |
| 19:09.46 | Constitution | or should I say best case :) |
| 19:25.50 | blast007 | (a better idea would just be to have enough servers running so things are the same) |
