UDP API DEV: Difference between revisions

:It would probably be ok to add this, but note that it would be a hassle to fetch a complete mylist. I mean, you can already do this with your own list, but it takes a lot of time because of the datagram rate limit. (It would take at least 8h to fetch my own list). And that is usage we don't really want @ udp api. And a command that returns all the data in once will, of course, not be allowed. So, in other words, if you just want to check if a friend has a specific file, or what files per anime (multiple files found), then ok, but ''view and browse a specified user's list just as I can with the web interface'' is not likely to happen/be allowed.--[[User:Epoximator|Epoximator]] 11:29, 4 June 2006 (CEST)

What I'm really interested in is maintaining local dbs of 3/4 user lists and having a client automatically update them every 2/3 weeks. We use this to coordinate information within our country regarding who has what =p. But what we're interested in is a way to be able to selectively retrieve the entire list by some index. OFcourse if its slow, then it makes sense to maintain it locally and just look for changes. The other thing I really want is to somehow retrieve with mylist file data (or user list file data), the date at which something was added to the list. (I understand this information exists). The idea here is we can locally query these lists for files added within the last 2/3 months.
