Ingame Mod Manager
Wow, this is a cool idea. Some comments:
1. I could possibly host a mod repo, while traffic is not too heavy. FTP is fine.
2. Mod authors need to think about and write 'clean-up' code to remove their entities when they are uninstalled. This could be encouraged by the mod installer system. Init code too. mauvebic mentions this above.
3. Groups of mods make a modpack!

Hi Jeija,
Sorry I've been bogged down with work recently, I got most of it added to minetest just got a few tweaks to do and will submit to github, Hopefully I will get time to do it tonight or the weekend at the latest.
Also luazip has a dependency of zziplib, The problem with this is that zziplib doesn't come with a pre-compiled lib like most lib sources, which means before you can compile luazip on windows you will need to compile zziplib which depends on some windows sdks. This isn't really a problem as they are easily available but it will mean people will have that extra step to do before compiling.
I could setup a new repository on github for zziplib with a pre-compiled library I guess? that would mean anyone compiling this could just grab the zziplib source from github and wouldn't need to compile it.

@lesliev regarding #2 it would be a nice idea, there is currently a pull request on github that allows digging of unknown nodes which means at least we can remove stuff left over from mods for the time being until mod developers add clean-up scripts to there mods ^_^lesliev wrote:Wow, this is a cool idea.

I am making a mod database, can I/You incorporate it in to your design.
(you may use it on your website, when it is finished)
http://www.tinyurl.com/mtmdfrm
What i am asking is, how does the mod lookup work, so i can program it in to my mod database.
Interface for ingame version
?
Interface for python version:
(http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=618)
You can interface with my database using:
(pkg-#) mm/getmodbyname.php: http://multa.bugs3.com/minetest/forum/m ... d=mesecons
(pkg-#) mm/getmodbyid.php: http://multa.bugs3.com/minetest/forum/m ... d.php?id=2
(PackageList) mm/getmods.php: http://multa.bugs3.com/minetest/forum/mm/getmods.php

Thank you, I forgot about that. You can be my ethical hacker. lolxyz wrote:rubenwardy, there is (at least) one sql-inj. You should better either not use php or replace all mysql_escape_string with mysql_real_escape_string and make sure all int values are ints, all strings come in quotes (in queries).

Has this been abandoned or is it still being developed?

See this:issa wrote:hello, and if u don't have all stuff to compil, how get the executable files please ?
Also, there's a mod manager in the latest version, although it is a bit different: it allows enabling or disabling mods per-world, but doesn't allow downloading mods from there.Jeija wrote:I had to pause it because noone was able to port it to windows which meant that there was no chance to get it merged.

I too wish to see this feature implemented. Unfortunately I'm still new with compiling and know nill about windows, but as a linux server admin this feature could save me a lot of time then sudo ssh and Wat not. Plz dnt give up?

This is very out of date.
There is already a mod manager in the default game.
It does not download mods yet, but that will be added when a good online database is ready.

Every time a mod API is left undocumented, a koala dies.
