Skylark95 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Thought it should be easier to read and search weekly deals so created this...Will plan on adding some enhanced steam like features to it as well. http://webapp.skylark95.com/steam-weeklong-deals/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dateranoth Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I like this feature. I was hoping you would add something like this. I haven't looked at the source yet. What did you write it in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylark95 Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 I like this feature. I was hoping you would add something like this. I haven't looked at the source yet. What did you write it in? Mostly PHP and JavaScript Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Anyway to move to mostly javascript and use background loading? I had it hang a couple of times. I guess it was having trouble querying the api. I like PHP a lot except for the need to wait on it to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylark95 Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 The php is really just serving as a proxy, minifier, and server side cache for the different http calls I'm making. The JavaScript is making async calls for the weeklong deals and other detail pages through the proxy then using jQuery to parse them into the table. [edit] The only way I could make it work with all JavaScript is if steam has cors enabled on their site which they likely do not. My shared server was having a maintenance update last night so php was running a little slow. It's back to its normal speed of a few seconds to load the page ow. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I wasn't sure how you were pulling the info. If it was an api of steams that was setup to allow that or not. It's normally fast. Do you cache the entire weeklong deals on your local server? Since, I assume they are only changing once a week. Really just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skylark95 Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 Steam prettymuch just implemented a new design that removed about half the reason I even needed to write this...Oh well, I fixed the bugs the redesign caused none the less.
