Reports Extractor for Online Leagues
Some of you use cPanel and file manager to explode your league reports on the server. There may even be some of you going the one file at a time slow route. While cPanel certainly does the job, it still requires a login and several clicks until you navigate to your lgreports directory.
I'm working on an easy and secure extractor that
Here's what it looks like: AllSimBaseball Extractor I'm still playing with the code at the moment but I wanted to see if there is any interest out there. If so, I'll write a readme.txt, package it and share it. EDIT Feb 21 2009: Now released with feature to delete the archive after extraction. Download here: http://www.allsimbaseball.com/index....c=select&id=32 |
I would definitely have a use for this.
|
If its like the feature you use on allsimbaseball.com I'll give a thumbs up!

I'll be done with it before the end of the week and I'll share it fairly soon. :) |
I'd be interested as well. Thanks Fidel!

Can't Wait!!!

Should be done by Friday. Actually, it is done. Just want to write clear, uncomlpicated instructions on how to use it. :)
|
I'd like to try it too.

Seems to work great! Thanks a ton! For future versions, maybe you could add a second function where it deletes the .tar.gz after extraction? Some users, such as myself, are close to our web space allocations, so we (I) delete the reports tar.gz file after extraction. Regardless, thanks for this great util.

After further review, this is not working for me. I placed it in the folder I need the reports extracted to, and asked it to extract the reports file from this morning's sim. It claims it extracts fine, but my reports are not updated. I have to manually export them via my cpanel.

The big question... Did you see a huge list of file names start to show up below the button? EDIT: Make sure you are placing this mod's files in the same directory where your archive is. NOT where you want the reports extracted to. |

Gonna send you a PM about this.

I'm finding the reports for the league i help run is not fully extracting... it gets about 3/4 of the way through and then stops..
Any ideas as to why this would happen? We're not hosted by you and could this be a server issue? |

In general, not just for use of this utility, I would recommend splitting up the reports into two or three uploads for huge universes or leagues that employ 16 levels of minors. Easier on the game and quicker to explode on the server as well. |

How would you go about splitting the reports for multiple uploads and then explode them on the server? Thanks for your help |

First, eliminate what you only need once or once in a while, like history and images. History is only needed after the season and images are only needed when you have new rookies coming in. Then, in the Create Reports page, make sure you remove the checks for roughly half or 2/3 of what is currently showing a red check. Generate the reports, archive and upload as usual. After you extract on the server, repeat the steps in creating reports and archiving, only this time replace the checks for what you left out with the first upload and remove the checks for what you've already done. |
Thanks for this, Fidel! You may want to edit your first post to show that it has been tested and released though.
