First version of my site using the API

[sylario]

Hi here is the very first version of my rails app using maniaplanet app : http://92.243.25.188/

It is using a one hour cache based on the request to the API. Despite that it is still quite heavy with 4 requests to the API each time you search a player (that has not been viewed in the past hour).

Whouah, cool site

It would be nice to put his nickname in the URL directly. Like this http://url/login

Nice work

Good idea, currently you can use the nick as a parameter, but this is a good idea too.

I have works to do on the links anyaway, i should keep the current player name when browsing ladders. Also i must highlight the searched player in the ladders. And i am still considering displaying nickname instead of login in the ladders.

You may consider to cache the MPWS results at least for 24 hours, because the MPWS servers themselves do not update the data more often

Indeed, the ladders are updated once a day, so you might consider a 24 hours cache to decrease the rate.

Ok, i changed the value to 24 hours, it will go up with the next version. Is player data (like the nickname) also subject to a 24 hour caching delay?

[gouxim]

Player data is cached for around 1 hour.

Now there is a domain name : http://www.statsmania.net

I added ubisoft/NADEO mention at the bottom, tell me if itis ok.

Now the ladders display the nickname, and the login is displayed as tool-tip.

It's ok here, nice work

Just one thing : in "Multiplayer Ladder", nickname is shadowed, not in "Solo Ladder"
I think it's better in "Multiplayer Ladder" for visibility

The nicks are shadowed from the $ markup of maniaplanets nickname. I could add it to all the nicknames, but then i would not respect the nickname original formatting.
