WoWI Mod Uploader

Version: r53

by: Shadowed [More]

This is for developers who are interested in uploading mods to WoWInterface, not for updating mods from WoWInterface to your computer, Thanks!

This script tries to speed up the process of updating your mods on WoWInterface and making life easier in general, supports uploading from an svn repository on a remote server or from your own desktop. Right now, it'll only update files that have already been submitted but their are plans to allow uploading new files later.

All you need is Java 1.5 (also known as Java 5.0) or higher, and a WoWInterface account. Everything is done through a command line, the arguments can be pulled up by passing -h or -help, heres the ones that are available currently.

Code:

-u <username>               WoWInterface account name
-p <password>               WoWInterface account password
-ver <version>              File version for uploading
-log                        Includes a changelog-<version>.txt file with the mod zip.
-desc-log                   Includes the last 50 commits in the mod description.
-svn <path>                 Path to the svn command line, usually you can just use -svn.
-fid <fileid>               File ID to update on WoWInterface.
-ftitle <title>             Attempts to find the file id using the mod title.
-ftoc                       Attempts to scan the TOC file in the given path for the file title.
-desc <path>                Replaces the mod description which the file passed.
-skip                       Skips confirmation on the mod to upload to
-zip-ver                    Uploads the zip with the file name <folder>-<version>.zip
-svn-export <url>           Grabs the specified SVN directory URL and uploads it, -path and -svn-path are not needed for this.
-svn-path <dir>             Path to the svn to grab the change log/revision number from, only needed if the current working directory isn't the svn repo itself.
-path <dir>                 Path to the mod to be zipped/uploaded, only needed if the current working directory isn't the mod itself.
-zip <dir>                  Zipped file to upload, cannot use -zip-ver or -log with this.
-ignore <pattern>           Lets you choose which files should not be included in the zip, you add as many -ignore args as needed.

You do not need to pass -u or -p through the command line, it'll simply ask you to provide the information, same with -ftitle and -fid you'll be asked for the file id you want to upload to. This can be ran from any location on your computer, you just need to make sure you set the correct -path or -svn-path to point towards the location you want.

A few examples, lets say WoWIUploader.class is located in C:/ and I want to upload the add on FooBar that's located in C:/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons/FooBar and it's also been checked out from svn and the file id is 7500.

java WoWIUploader -fid 7500 -zip-ver -desc-log -log -path "C:/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons/FooBar" -svn-path "C:/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons/FooBar" -ver "r50"

This will create a zip named FooBar-r50.zip, and also include a change log named changelog-r50.txt of all changes retrieved through svn log, the mod description will be updated with the last 50 changes also. Now, say you want to upload a mod that's in SVN from a tag that's located in www.testserver.com/svn/tags/FooBar-r50 and the file title is "Foo Bar", you'd use

java WoWIUploader -ftitle "Foo Bar" -desc-log -log -svn-export "www.testserver.com/svn/tags/FooBar-r55" -svn-path "www.testserver.com/svn/trunk/FooBar" -ver "r55"

This will create a zip named FooBar-r55.zip, a change log file named changelog-r55.txt retrieved from www.testserver.com/svn/trunk/FooBar/ and will include the last 50 changes in the mod description also retrieved from the same URL as changelog-r55.txt and will upload to the mod with the title Foo Bar.

-----
If you want to upload from WoWAce to WoWInterface, but you use .pkgmeta, the latest version will handle that, for example:

java WoWIUploader -curse-page "elitistgroup" -api-key "####################" -desc-log -skip -ftitle "Elitist Group" -repo-log "git@git.wowace.com:wow/elitistgroup/mainline.git"

Will pull the latest version of Elitist Group from wowace, then it will pull the latest version and change log from a git repo.

Or, if you are pulling from a straight git repo:

java WoWIUploader -git-export "git://github.com/Shadowed/DamnCraftSpam.git" -git-path "master" -ftitle "Damn Craft Spam" -log -desc-log -zip-ver -git-folder "DamnCraftSpam"

Will pull from the git repo DamnCraftSpam on github, using the branch master, and it will name the folder DamnCraftSpam.

Yep... to get the shell to pass the entire path as one arg to svn, you have to quote the whole path or escape the spaces with backslashes, and then it works just fine. (Same goes for any other *nix, really... it's just that filenames with spaces in them are a bit more common on the Mac.) Again, that's at the shell level, though... once you're in an environment like Java where you're passing args around as an array, the quotes are superfluous.

Try grabbing the version from http://wowiuploader.googlecode.com/s...k/WoWIUploader this includes skipping any files that starts with a period by default and removes quotes for the svn commands.

[Edit] It also includes -ftoc, does not work with -svn-export yet.

In the shell, can pass the args to /usr/bin/java (and through it, to WoWIUploader) as either -svn-path "/Applications/World of Warcraft" or -svn-path /Applications/World\ of\ Warcraft... either way, once it gets to your code as a single item in the args array, containing the path without any escape codes or quotes. The problem is when you invoke SVN -- at that point, cmdArgs.get("svn-path") is exactly what you need to pass to the ProcessBuilder for the unquoted, unescaped path to get to SVN. Wrapping it in quotes causes SVN to think they're part of the path and throw an error.

I'm surprised it'd work for you at all with it wrapped in quotes... but I suppose there may be some differences in the *nix versus Windows platform-specific parts of the JVM, relating to whether ProcessBuilder ends up going through a shell (or emulating shell command parsing) to invoke the command it's given.

Doesn't run at all: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassFormatError: Incompatible magic value -1095041334 in class file ArgumentTest

Ah, I think I figured it out. When I originally posted those mods on WoWI (ages ago), I must've copied & pasted from the webpages on fizzwidget.com; on there I use the Markdown plugin for Wordpress to get "smart quotes" and whatnot. So the WoWI descriptions got those as literal chars instead of entities, and when those bytes ran through Java it used a different character encoding (UTF8 vs ISO-Latin1, maybe). So I oughta fix that in my mod descriptions.

Must be a Mac vs Windows inconsistency then, I assume if you pass the arguments manually to svn even with the path or URL having a space in it works fine? I'll just remove the quotes if so, since it's not required in Windows either was just doing it to be safe.

Oh well, not a big deal.

Java is using UTF8 I believe, not sure actually.

I'm 99% sure it's something with Mac OS X but this will verify it.

Nice! Anything that makes posting updates to my mods less of a hassle is good by me!

Suggestions:
BUG: Fetching the svn logs fails if the path contains spaces. (BTW, on Mac OS X the default install for WoW puts it in "/Applications/World of Warcraft".) Not wrapping the path in quotes when passing it to executeCommand on line 478 fixes this.

BUG: Some characters get mucked up when it grabs the mod description from the site and inserts the changelog... all my mods now have various accented letters where they should have quotes and apostrophes in their descriptions.

Read the addon's TOC file... from it you could get the title (for looking up the file ID on the site) and the version number for posting the upload under.

Include all filenames starting with a period in the ignore pattern by default. (I do my development on Mac OS X, which likes to put .DS_Store files everywhere.)

If you pass -svn-path "/Applications/World of Warcraft" it doesn't work, if you pass -svn-path /Applications/World of Warcraft it works fine? Thats rather odd, Java is doing the command argument parsing so it maybe just an issue with the implementation used, I'll need to look into this.

[Edit] Can you grab http://wowiuploader.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ArgumentTest/ArgumentTest.class and run java ArgumentTest -svn-path /Applications/World of Warcraft/ and java ArgumentTest -svn-path "/Applications/World of Warcraft/" and give me the output for both? I'm 99% sure it's something with Mac OS X but this will verify it.

Are you using r32? And can you link the mod in question thats causing this issue, I may have missed some characters to convert.

This was originally included in the Lua version but I never got around to adding it back into the Java one, will get it added as an option (probably something like -ftoc) along with showing you all mod titles that are close to the one given, so if your mod is named "FooBar" and you type "FooB" it'll show you that the mod "FooBar" closely matches "FooB".

Done, anything starting with . will be skipped.
