Server list

[MatthewHawley]

Can someone make a plugin that has a page with a list of game servers. It would have to let us add them in the admin control panel. It would have to say if it was online/offline and how many people are playing on it.

Thanks!

@MatthewHawley You've got a lot of missing information here. For which games are you trying to include? Each one could have different ways of displaying or communicating server information, which presents a problem for someone who would potentially make such a plugin.

Usually there are ways that already exist for you to display server information; why not create a custom page and put all of them there, rather than creating a separate plugin to do so?

Edit: a widget would suffice as well.

Already working on this with @bentael

We are developing here: https://github.com/xCausxn/nodebb-widget-gameservers
List of game can be found there also!

Currently working on it as you can see (from the hostname being loading :P)

well
fixed in library.js this
templates = module.parent.require('../public/src/templates'),
to
templates = module.parent.require('templates.js'),

it about meta.js

try replacing the init function with

    Widget.init = function(data, callback) {
        var templatesToLoad = ['gameservers.tpl', 'admin/gameservers.tpl'];

        function loadTemplate(template, next) {
            fs.readFile(path.resolve(__dirname, './public/templates/' + template), function (err, data) {
                if (err) {
                    return next(err);
                }
                Widget.templates[template] = data.toString();
                next(null);
            });
        }

        Widget.settings(function() {
            async.each(templatesToLoad, loadTemplate);
            var prefix = '/api/admin/widgets/gameservers';
            
            data.router.get(prefix + '/fetchserver', Widget.fetchserver);
            data.router.get(prefix + '/fetchallservers', Widget.fetchallservers);
            data.router.post(prefix + '/addserver', data.middleware.admin.isAdmin, Widget.addserver);
            data.router.post(prefix + '/rmserver', data.middleware.admin.isAdmin, Widget.rmserver);

            callback();
        });
    };
