 Roster Master for Dragonfly v4 Released
Dragonfly Version 4 of Roster Master for Dragonfly is out!

This adds a number of bugfixes and feature enhancements, but most of all, it adds the first iteration of the dynamic signature generator. The signature block generator uses a pretty unique and innovative caching method:

  • Registers a shutdown function to destory GD image resources.
  • Gets the Character_ID from the server environment and casts it to integer.
  • Gets the record matching the Character_ID from the roster, validating that it exists at the same time.
  • Checks the server environment to see if a forced refresh has been requested by a CMS user, if it has, skip the caching logic.
  • The caching logic starts by seeing if a signature block file already exists, gets the last modified time of the file, and checks that the file is at least as new as the latest information for that character in the roster. (The roster is configured by default to check Sony's data on the next roster or heritage quest tracker access after six hours.)
  • It then checks to see if the file modification time is greater than the If-Modified-Since header sent by the client. If it is, it pushes the cached file and exits. If it is not, it sends a 304 response and exits.
  • If the caching logic has been skipped or exited, the module creates the image file, saves it to the cache directory, pushes it to the client, and exits.
Right now, the signature block feature is still pretty nacent, future feature will probably include some customization and better handling of font sizes.
