  • Synchronet API Documentation?

    From Jagossel@VERT/DISCREAL to All on Sun May 5 19:21:53 2019
    Would anyone have a link to some sort of API or SDK documentation? I have an idea for a project in Synchronet for an ad bot. I think it might be possible to do it in JavaScript.

    Thank you in advance!

    user.security.restrictions (and exemptions) are integers, so how would one change say restrictions A CD F N P to just CD? I am not sure of the integer representations of exemptions/restrictions.

    There are lot of examples in exec/*.js, but most of them are setting or clearing a single flag at a time. To set (or clear) multiple flags at a time, use the | bit-wise operator:

    user.security.restrictions = UFLAG_C | UFLAG_D;

    Is there an easy way to clear all flags for a user account with no restrictions? or a var NEW_UFLAG_SET = ... ?

    I'm not sure what you're implying by the NEW_UFLAG_SET var.

    I am modifying emailval.js ... user.security.restrictions = 0; is good to clear all restrictions, thank you. Is there an easy way to declare a flag set variable (I called it NEW_UFLAG_SET as an example) similar to NEW_UFLAG_SET = "UFLAG_C | UFLAG_D | UFLAG_E ... etc"; ?

    If your goal is to do something like:

    user.security.restrictions = NEW_UFLAG_SET;

    then your example is close to what you'd want:

    const NEW_UFLAG_SET = UFLAG_C|UFLAG_D|UFLAG_E; // And so on

    Note that you don't want quotes around the right operand, which would make it a string instead of a bunch of numbers that you're OR-ing together.

    This is kind of a flyswatter approach, which is probably what you want anyway. If you don't want to overwrite the user's entire flag set, it's also possible to add a single flag:

    user.security.restrictions |= UFLAG_C;

    or unset a single flag:

    user.security.restrictions &=~ UFLAG_C;

    Various other things are possible. For some information about these types of operations:
