The Engine\n2. The website\n\nThe whole engine is open-sourced in order to avoid the complete oblivion in case the maintainer is not able to work anymore on the project.\n\n1. The Engine\n=============\n\nThe Engine is a set of Python scripts able to crawl on a given list of sources, fetch any updated data, and download the data that changed since the last run. The sources are described using simple text files with a very basic syntax.\n\nOnce the run is done, the result is a tree of folders, containing each version of each emulator, sorted by original machines (C64, CPC, Amiga, Atari...)\n\nEach machine (or emulator) shows a description in English language, extracted from Wikipedia.\nThe extract can be automated using the Wikipedia API.\nhttps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page\n\nEach emulator can be downloaded using one or several urls.\nThe binaries could be either :\n - directly linked to the original emulator's site\n - downloaded from the site and hosted on emucamp.net\n - found by the visitors by following an external link to the original emulator's website\n\n1.a Setup\n---------\n\nYou need python and pip.\nGet python on http://www.python.org/\nGet pip on http://www.pip-installer.org/\n\nOnce you have python and pip installed, you can run:\n```bash\npip install -r requirements.txt\n```\nIt will install the python modules required by the project.\n\n1.b Run\n-------\n\nTo update the website, run:\n```bash\npython python/main.py\n```\n\nTo update the meta ratings, run:\n```bash\npython python/meta_ratings.py\n```\n\nUnder Windows you can run the provided bat scripts:\n```bash\nstart.bat\n```\nand\n```bash\nstart_meta_ratings.bat\n```\n\n 2. The website\n===============\n\n The website is a static site (pure HTML, no PHP, no SQL). Everything is built on the local machine that runs the engine, and then uploaded to a given location.\n\n The files are a mix or html, css, png and binary files.\n\n ![](http://www.astrofra.com/posts/misc/2014-07-20_080904.jpg)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fastrofra%2Femucamp-engine","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fastrofra%2Femucamp-engine","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fastrofra%2Femucamp-engine/lists"}
