XML Output

[darknite]

IHateMyISP had coded this little hack up for 2.0, and I finally got around to updating it to work with 2.1..

It's very messy, seeing how I'm not a php expert by any means, I just hacked his hack to make it work..

add to config.php

Code:

/**************************************************************************/
// Define if you want XML-like output of information pertaining to your
// TF install and torrents
$cfg["xmlinfo"] = true;
/**************************************************************************/

then use the attached xmlout.php

This isn't working for me. I am getting the following error:

XML Parsing Error: no element found
Location: http://domain.com/torrentflux/xmlout.php
Line Number 7, Column 27:base class -- dont do this
--------------------------^

yeah, apparently this doesn't play nice with b4rt's installbase. I might visit this issue later, but right now, unless I get a bunch of free time, I don't know if I'll be able to fix it

hacks using hardcoded torrent-clients wont work on my version.
i was thinking of adding features like different output-formats as well... but did nothing in that direction so far but xml would be the first beside html i would add

okay..

once again, this is a dirty hack of a hack..

change

Code:

$af = new AliasFile($dirName.$alias, null);

to

Code:

$af = AliasFile::getAliasFileInstance($cfg["torrent_file_path"].$alias, $torrentowner, $cfg);

from my 5 mins of testing, this should fix the problem with b4rt's codebase

*NOTE* this has not been tested other than "okay, it displays"..

yeah but with eventual wrong values as different torrent-clients and different stat-file-formats are not handled different ~

this "might" work if you only use tornado-clients and have tornado-client as default bt-client.

Well since I mostly use transmission these days, I guess it isn't worth me trying it out.

The reason I use this is that I reformat the xml into an rss compatable format, then I use the rss reader on my phone/xbox and other devices to check on my torrent status. It's easier than booting my computer, and I can do it at the pub/work...

Thanks darknite and b4rt for taking a look at this. I hope the problems on b4rts release can be resolved sometime soon, I know he is a very busy man 

[b4rt]

just overflew the code and this uses stat-files with lower-case-chars only.
(file has copy-pasted functions from tf  with a suffix "2", dunny why ~)
-> this probably will behave bogus in its current form on tf-b4rt-8(+).

the file may be ported to tf-b4rt quite easy so i am thinking of merging this into the next release (not as single file but as "outputformat"-case (very low) of index-page)
as i made further mods on index-page already and my transfer-process-functions are already splitted into more granular functions this may be done easier and with less to none copy-pasted code at all.

EDIT: integrated rss-feed-feature in tf-b4rt. will be in next release
