• Upload Processor

    From stizzed@21:4/156 to All on Saturday, June 08, 2019 17:29:47
    Thoughts on a good upload processor for Mystic? A good processor would:

    1) Virus Scan
    2) Remove specific extensions (.nfo)
    3) FILE_ID.DIZ verification
    4) Refresh archive
    5) Log activity and perhaps post to email

    Wishful thinking?

    Here is a great one written in Python that places nicely with Mystic and
    covers most of what you are looking for.

    I use it.

    As a software author, I have a problem with 2 and 4. BBS's should never be modifying archives especially if there is a CRC to ensure that the archive is "authentic". The .nfo file may be an actual file related to the program.

    I'm not quite sure what benefit refreshing an archive would do. I have files on my BBS for download dating back to 1987 and they test fine.

    I used that same one back in the day! I too cannot remember the name either
    but it was pretty when it ran.
