Get player login

[danodude]

Hey, guess who's back asking questions?

Was just wondering how to get the login of whoever visits a manialink? I'm sure its simple... I'm guessing some PHP script?

Thanks

Hi,

You have to use ManiaConnect. We give a PHP SDK: https://github.com/maniaplanet/maniaplanet-ws-sdk

A reference is available here: http://maniaplanet.github.io/documentat ... rence.json

And you can get help here : http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewforum.php?f=282

Happy coding

Thanks guys, I'll check out ManiaConnect. Seems awesome

steeffeen: what's the code for that in ManiaScript? I haven't tried using MS & Manialinks yet

[steeffeen]

well the manialink script has basic access to the current user, such as login and nickname
the script could then send the data to the server, though the server would of course only know this data afterwards but not in the moment of the request, maniaconnect would give you that information directly

i don't really know what you want to do with the data so you have to validate both ways

the relevant classes are CMlScript, CUser, CHttpManager

Code: Select all

Http.CreateGet("url?login="^LocalUser.Login);
