6 daysadded requests.check() and uses of it0neGal
Very minimal uses of it, currently it simply checks every 30s and on startup whether a set of domains/endpoints we use work, and if all fail, then we assume something is wrong with the internet.
2024-02-04deleting request cache now deletes old cache file0neGal
We previously had a requests cache file just named `viper-requests.json` in the system's cache folder, we now also delete that alongside the current file, simply cleaning up a user's cache folder, as that file will not be used anymore. We also technically had a file named `requests.json`, however the name is too vague and could potentially (unlikely, but oh well) delete something that isn't actually Viper's older requests cache file.
2024-02-04move IPC events into their respective modules0neGal
I've not been able to find anything that breaks from this, as I've gone through every IPC event that got moved, to ensure it still functions, and all the breakage I found has since been fixed. IPC events that dont fit in any particular module is also now in the new file named `src/app/modules/ipc.js` There's also another module `src/win.js`, which lets you get the `BrowserWindow` outside of `src/index.js` I also took the oppertunity to clean up some of the code when moving it around, and adding a couple comments, as some of it was quite horrid.
2024-02-03requests.js ignores cache time when no internet0neGal
This means if you dont have any internet, but there's a cached requests, it'll use that, even if it was cached a very long time ago. This just attempts to eliminate errors. This can still be turned off for things where you dont want this to happen, notably the masterserver status.
2024-01-24entirely refactor src/modules/requests.js0neGal
Its now been split into 2, requests.js and releases.js, the latter simply gets relevant info from GitHub release pages. The prior however gives simple functions for doing `GET` requests, and caching the result, and then transparently it'll use that cache when you request it next time. On top of this, some requests made by the renderer will now also use this, and this in turn ends up making loading the mod browser much faster. As instead of having to request the list of packages from Thunderstore, we can simply load the result of an old request. The current lifetime of the cache is 5 minutes, however this can also easily be adjusted. This also moves the cached requests away from <cache_folder>/viper-requests.json, and over to <cache_folder>/Viper/cached-requests.json
2023-09-16added buttons for fixing some problems and alike0neGal
I will likely add more buttons in the future, but for now this is most of the ones a user could need to repair problems.
2023-09-16made some lang keys far more logical0neGal
Most of these are from back when Viper was originally started, I also removed a few keys as they were no longer in use, but were forgotten about, most of these are from pre-v1.0.0 aka, the old smaller UI
