Oh wow, an xdcc post, let me use the rare opportunity to plug my project: https://github.com/MaggiWuerze/xddcwebloader
Very cool, good job!
Thanks. I built it mostly for subsplease anime releases and just recently learned that there are actual search engines for this, so I'm currently looking into adding an option to integrate search engines of choice
It's actually not that hard to build your own search engine for specific server/channel.
I'm looking more for a generic approach, so users can register any search engine of their choice (as long as it returns a json result set I guess)
I think only one has api SunXDCC and its bad. Best code your own apis for that.
Ok, so from xdcc.rocks, xdcc.eu and skuldxcc.com only xdcc.eu doesn't return its search results as json. For that one I'll have to find a way to parse an html table :D
I highly recommend coding your own api from parsed html data.
Having parsed HTML before (or tried to) I'm not sure if that was sarcasm :D
You asking me? If you are of course I did its very easy.
