DayZHive - Hive application [MySQL] [Node.js]

[AWA]

This is an application which simulates DayZ's hive/saving system. In comparision to other implementations, mine saves the character data in a MySQL database.

GitHub repo:
https://github.com/matsuiman/DayZHive

Download:
https://github.com/matsuiman/DayZHiv...ive/master.zip

Requirements:

• Node.js
• MySQL

How to use:

1. Install Node.js and MySQL (I'm not giving instructions for that)
2. Run the install.bat file included (multiple times if needed)
3. Open up server.js in a text editor, edit the MySQL details:
   

   var connection = mysql.createConnection({ 
      host: 'localhost', 
      user: 'root', 
      password: '', 
      database: 'hive'
   }); 

4. Run run.bat
5. Start up your DayZ Server

You can also edit the port and allowed IP's if you want to.

This should hopefully save people a lot of headaches trying to get the other way of saving working.

Very nice work man. Downloaded and using now. Hope to see more from you in the future

Fantastic work, thank you very much for sharing <3 Much better than raw dumps on a webserver

Added MySQL pooling to the application.

Great application so far, I have noticed one game breaking bug which is sometimes, when the server saves/queues data the hive application crashes. Or if it somehow finds player data not there when it trys to /load/queue/find it will crash out. Undefined data error.

Yeah its happening when a player either looses connection while dying, the server trys to queue them when they logout, no data is found so the application is crashed, because kill before queue had deleted the data.

[AWA]

I'll try fixing the crash bugs, but for now just edit the run.bat:

:start
node index.js
goto start

Thanks for the swift response!

Maybe make queue ignore the request if it cannot find the uid in database, and make save remake the uid if it cannot find the uid in database.
