I've worked on the OnlineStatistics (Further informations) this evening and manage to send post request to Ash's server.
Ash is the person in charge of creating DataRun Website, he provided us a test page to send post and get request at the following address: http://kyuu.co.uk/datarun.php
If you enter the following url for example http://kyuu.co.uk/da...hp?game=dataRun
the web browser will displayed
post vars get vars "game" = dataRun
The Objective was to send this kind of request using TcpLink UnrealScript class and here is the code which do that:
Use Class
var DataRun_TcpLink wConn;
wConn = spawn(class'DataRun_TcpLink');
wConn.sendPlayerStat("1664", "BeerLand", "124", "51");TCPLink Class
class DataRun_TcpLink extends TcpLink
config(DataRun);
var config String ipWebSite, urlWebSite, pathFile;
var config int portNumber;
var IpAddr ipA;
function PostBeginPlay()
{
super.PostBeginPlay();
StringToIpAddr(ipWebSite, ipA);
ipA.Port = portNumber;
BindPort();
// receive events rather than get data manually
ReceiveMode = EReceiveMode.RMODE_Event;
//method receiveText call
LinkMode = ELinkMode.MODE_Text;
}
/*
Send a Post Request as follow

function sendPlayerStat(String playerID, String level, String totalTime, String energy)
{
local String httpRequest, request;
request = getRequest(playerID, level, totalTime, energy);
httpRequest = getStandardHeader();
httpRequest $= getContentLength(request);
httpRequest $= Chr(13)$Chr(10); // add the blank line
httpRequest $= request;
if(!IsConnected())
Open(ipA);
SendText(httpRequest);
}
function String getStandardHeader()
{
local String header;
//set the path of the file which will receive the post request
header = "POST /"$pathFile$" HTTP/1.0"$Chr(13)$Chr(10);
//set the sender (optional)
header $= "From: xiongmao@datarun.com"$Chr(13)$Chr(10);
//set user agent
header $= "User-Agent: HTTPTool/1.0"$Chr(13)$Chr(10);
//set encode type
header $= "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"$Chr(13)$Chr(10);
return header;
}
function String getContentLength(String request)
{
local String cLength;
cLength = "Content-Length: "$len(request)$Chr(13)$Chr(10);
return cLength;
}
function String getRequest(String playerID, String level, String totalTime, String energy)
{
local String request;
request = "playerID="$playerID$"&level="$level$"&totalTime="$totalTime$"&energy="$energy;
return request;
}
event ReceivedText( string Text )
{
LogInternal("text: "$Text);
}
defaultproperties
{
pathFile = "datarun.php"
ipWebSite = "82.17.97.168"
urlWebSite = "http://kyuu.co.uk"
portNumber = 80
}and you will see a great trace in your logfile:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Mon, 05 May 2008 22:11:59 GMT Server: Apache X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.6RC1-pl1-gentoo Content-Length: 493 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> <title>kyuu</title> </head> <body> <h1>post vars</h1> <ul> <li>"playerID" = 1664</li><li>"level" = BeerLand</li><li>"totalTime" = 124</li><li>"energy" = 51</li></ul> <h1>get vars</h1> </body> </html>
I can't figure out how to find gameSpyId if anyone has a clue ? if not players will have to create a kind of account on the website.
I don't know if it's necessary to take care of receive message (maybe the first line to see if the request has succeeded)
Comment? questions?
