Lack of updates

Posted by: on April 8, 2011, 3:38 pm

Sorry for the lack of updates for the site. It's just a lot to do and I never find enough time to get it all sorted. I am however considering writing the whole site from scratch. 1) Becuase I miss the site and I've fallen behind on a lot of comics I read. 2) I wana try some ASP out. But I'll probably just end up doing the whole thing in php again.

Backend wise I really need to re-write that part, the current version was causing no end of memory leaks and just killing the entire server so I took the updates offline. The new c# mono version did work a hell of a lot better than the previous php implementation I made. Multi-threaded, much faster, much easier to use.

Anyway, keep an eye out in the future for a new version of the site hopefully with a lot more features.

 

A fresh start

Right, I've basically recoded about 70% of the backend of the site. Site should run a lot smoother, and be a lot easier for me to maintain. Things I've done:

-Recoded the entire user login/register script
-Wrote an archive program to easily archive new comics in .NET, runs using mono. It archived 1400 Penny Arcade in around 5 mins. Old one used to do the same thing in about an hour or so (gorram php and curl)
-Wrote a new comic parser in .Net. It runs threaded so it will check 5 different comics at once rather than waiting for the previous one to finish. The new program also emails me on errors if a comic fails 5 times in a row.
-Few other odd code changes around the site, getting rid of unused code and ordering the way things are done.

With the new comic parser and archiver it means I should be able to add a lot of comics quick quickly now including ones like Perry Bible Fellowship :D
