2024-02-04removed use of "vipertmp" folder0neGal
Previously we downloaded the Northstar archive and packages to a folder named "vipertmp" in the system's cache folder, now that's just moved into "Viper/Temp" (still inside the system's cache folder) With this, all Viper cache is stored in the same folder in the system's cache folder... Wait... Why wasn't it always like this? Oh right, my past stupidity and lack of foresight. Oh well. "vipertmp" still gets deleted when clearing install cache, along with the new folder, so doing so will by itself clean up the old folder.
2024-02-04merge src/modules/window.js into src/win.js0neGal
I intended to do this when creating src/win.js, but wanted it to be in a different commit, as that commit made pretty large changes as well. So no more `main_win`, `win_show` and confusion between what `win` is.
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.
2024-02-03src/modules/settings.js now provides a function0neGal
This fixes a couple issues where the main process wouldn't actually get changes made to the settings, this fixes that. On top of this, changing settings is now done with `settings.set()` There shouldn't be any breakage from this change, but I suppose it is possible. Especially because the `settings()` function still does contain backup options set, meaning `settings.nsargs` is technically still valid, but dont expect it to actually be updated when that variable is changed, its merely here to avoid any problems.
2024-01-29prevent multiple updates running simultaneously0neGal
We're the renderer to request for an update multiple times, then it'd simply start both updates, at the same time, causing all kinds of issues. This was only really realistically possible to happen if you were to manually check for updates whilst an update automatically were to be checked from right before then. As an example, when Viper starts up, it'll by default check for updates for itself, then Northstar, if you within that time frame checked for updates manually, it'll run both. Now however, we check if an existing update is occurring, and do nothing if so, this is both for Viper and Northstar updates.
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
2024-01-11updating Northstar now deletes existing core mods0neGal
This solves #223
2023-11-08added progress bar to download and extraction0neGal
This takes a bit of code from #220 to implement percentage progress on the download, then with the new pseudo element on the Launch button, we can have a slight progress bar inside the button, along with percentages, and it all works handy dandy. This may not be finished, but it's definitely far there.
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.
2023-09-16more minor fixes to the change in lang files0neGal
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
2023-07-31accidentally wrote console.status instead of .info0neGal
2023-07-24Fixed formatting issue in the up-to-date console message.someordinaryidiot#
2023-07-22colored console logging0neGal
Far prettier, and far more useful at a glance.
2023-03-09handle HTTP errors when downloading Northstar0neGal
In case we get a 404 or similar we should be cancelling the update, as otherwise we'll end up downloading the HTML for a 404 page, and subsequently try to extract that. Clearly not intended or good.
2023-03-09download Northstar to <cache_dir>/vipertmp0neGal
"cache_dir" being wherever your OS puts it's cache, it's the same place mods.js uses to download mods. This prevents cluttering up the gamepath with temporary files.
2023-03-05small cleanups and changes in comments0neGal
I've made some code return early instead of adding more nesting, on top of this I've added some more comments in some files, rephrased a few things, and so on...
2023-03-05show alert when updating with game running0neGal
This also fixes is_running not quite working on Linux
2023-03-05modularized many functions and got rid of utils.js0neGal
Notably, winLog() and winAlert() are now win.log() and win.alert() inside modules/window.js. updateViper(), updateNorthstar and handleNorthstarUpdating() are now update.viper(), update.northstar() and update.northstar_autoupdate(), inside modules/update.js isGameRunning() and isOriginRunning() are now is_running.origin() and is_running.game() inside modules/is_running.js, along with a .titanfall() and .northstar() for more specificity. Not used anywhere right now, but may in the future be used. setpath() and gamepathExists() are now gamepath.set() and gamepath.exists() inside modules/gamepath.js killOrigin() are now kill.origin() inside modules/kill.js setlang() is now just inlined into the only event where it's used.
