Massman Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Hey all, We're planning an updated version of the HWBOT external API. Before the coding can start, obviously we need to know what YOU want. In other words, please let us know what you expect from an HWBOT API or if you have any suggestions/requests for it. List of current APIs: http://hwbot.org/api.info.do Quote

Sanko Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Hi Massman, would really like to have ranking based on country. an api which can provide ranking of OverClockers based on country. Regards. Quote
Massman Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 Gobal Point Is Hard For Me To Reach . It Makes Me Down...... Sorry? Hi Massman, would really like to have ranking based on country. an api which can provide ranking of OverClockers based on country. Regards. API that allows you to insert a ranking like this: http://hwbot.org/community/country/belgium/overclocker Only member or also team? Variable = country Variable = member/team Quote
steponz Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 How about best bench per team? For instance... SuperPi32m.. who has the the best.. Bench with most points... Any api for statistics coming down the pipeline? If you need any help, I am a .Net developer.... Quote
Massman Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 I suppose it would also be nice to have an automatically updated list of the ongoing competitions at the bot. A socket specific list would be cool:) ? You mean on the site? API is to show HWBOT information on other websites. Quote

The purpose of this thread is to find out what we have to include in the new API Quote
Mutant_Tractor Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Abillity to pass values from a windows based program to the HWBot form to allow for automated uploading of results Quote
knopflerbruce Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 That must include some HW detection that works 100% flawlessly, not like wprime (in the old days, not sure if it's fixed now), and FM:) Quote
Mutant_Tractor Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Dont mean that I mean a form that is windows based, so when you take a screenshot the program will then ask you for the system specs and all the stuff from the online form and it will then pass the screenshot to the API, I think the API would also need a way to pull the data on the HW from the Bot's DB Quote
knopflerbruce Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Sounds better, but how "heavy" would such a program be? Would it crash a superpi1m stable setup? Quote
Mutant_Tractor Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Only one way to find out man... If based on .Net - which is how i work then about a 10MB footprint, CPU ~5% while working i recon Quote
johnamd Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Hi Massman Good They Would Be Distinguish The Grades In Level Of Conventional Refrigeration Quote
voidn Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Being able to generate text based sigs much like the current sigs would be great on sites that don't allow banners. Quote
Mutant_Tractor Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 You can do that already voidn if the site supports the [ HWBOT] tags, much like how they work in threads Quote
I.M.O.G. Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 (edited) Actually mutant, it doesn't work for sigs - while technically it would, many browsers don't operate well when there's a thread displaying many posts and each users sig is running the hwbot javascript. The browser gets laggy and runs like crap with that much javascript, we've seen it happen in posts on OCF when we were first testing the feature as R_B was developing it. But voidn is on the right track for something with a lighter footprint, we do something similar with folding stats: http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showpost.php?p=6558662&postcount=6 If we were grabbing the XML and pumping the data into a DB table, it wouldn't be much of a leap to then implement this ourselves for benching stats: http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/?nav=IMAGES The largest problem with doing that is using PHP to generate the actual text/image - getting the layout right is similar to making a really complicated vbulletin sig, it takes a lot of trial and error to get right.

voidn Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 Is there an api for team points like http://hwbot.org/community/team/oc_forums?tab=members ? I see one with team members global points but not team points. Quote
Mutant_Tractor Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Any news on an API to allow values to be passed and forms populated for result submissions? Quote
