[Chocolatey | Espreso] Habbo.com Clone CMS & Housekeeping

The General said:
Can just do a get request every once in a while to a remote server to check against the current version. If a new version is available you return something to indicate that. Then you upgrade to the next build.

And if that build is also older then you upgrade to the next build after upgrading etc. That way you can always keep the order and don't have to worry about merging version into one update package.

You can build a CMS in a month. Pretty sure you should be able to do this too.

Or you make a site in the Admin Panel called "Updates", there is a button "check for updates", if there any it shows a diff of the old and new files. If the client agrees with the update, it will be installed like you described above. +1

Not sure why you want to let them see the diff of files.

Why not use the awesomeness of composer? Release your CMS in parts which can be updated with composer update.

Idk, was just an idea I got, could be interesting for developers. So maybe make it an optional option?

I liked the The General, Joopie's and Emetophobic points. The iExit point was +-.

But i prefer doing the update be able from the Housekeeping.

We're developing an Internal "Administractive" communication API between Chocolatey + Espreso. (The Chocolatey Administractive API would be able to be consumed by anyone that have admin access, not only Espreso.. (sooo.. many applications are possible)).

Isn't good Chocolatey regularly check for Updates, since it's an php applet, not a real web service running all time. But would be possible Espreso check for updates and this makes sense.

But i doesn't think that it's good the ability of updating the Hotel by Espreso. This would make necessary Chocolatey have access to Bash (if we want to use Composer as middleware for updates).

Composer does a good job with Updating System, and we can use it. Also Laravel has the Artisan Applet that allows to create custom Console Commands.

So it's better research if we can do this by Composer or by Laravel Lumen. Regarding that Choco doesn't uses LARAVEL, but LARAVEL's Lumen Micro Framework.

A study case would be required. Since we're modeling our own APIs. Like The General said, OK i created a CMS in a month, but i was recreating Habbo's already defined/studied APIs. This is totally different. We need analyse which would be the best way for our scenario of implementing those APIs.

Like.:
1. statistics.
2. updating.
3. control choco's template engine
4. manage choco's settings??

#UPDATES (Chocolatey)

#FIXED
* AngularJS locales to match Default English
* A little weird typo preventing of HabboWEB loading the Group Badges in Angular.
* Some other minimal bugs

#CODED
* Don't show banned users profiles like Habbo
* Don't show invisible room's on the room gallery

#BACKLOG
* Code NUX Rooms
* Code Facebook Integration (boring)
* Other Features.

#ASKING
* People if you see a cool feature that you want be on Chocolatey, or some feature that I didn't replicate from Habbo. Or some feature that doesn't is working exactly like as from Habbo, create an Issue on the Chocolatey's GitHub repository,

#PHPUNIT
* In the future I will code API tests for all Routes and Assignments Test's (White Box Tests). To check if in each new RELEASE I broke something. (This feature can delay a bunch of time)

#SOME FEATURE REQUESTS
* I received a feature request to code the Habbo Help Center. I will not like to code it, since Habbo's use Zendesk. I can create something LITE that uses the same design. The "Help Center" would also be a separated module. But in this case would be Laravel.

Like Espreso it's a separated module. This Help Center would also be a separated module.

If the community wants me to code this, I ask for a minimum of 10 votes for this. Also, I would appreciate a "name" for this "CMS".

Like "Banana" or "Cookie Help"... I dunno.

Thanks for supporting this project!

Zoxq · Mar 5, 2017

I like your idea og making a help center which looks like the original Habbo Zendesk version.
Some ideas regarding names;
- Honey
- Waffle
- Hershey
- Cherry
