Hi@all,

I wrote a little PHP-script to read data out of the WAPstats and to create a picture.
This is how it looks like with my account:



You can also use it by this URL:
http://petrus.homeftp.org/scripting/boincwapstats/counter.php?id=[Your SETI-ID]

If you want to download the sourcecode, you can do that here

So I hope that it will have some use to anyone... ;)

Goodnight/Good morning/... folks!
Petrus

You are the MAN! Excellent job!

test ;-)

OHHH I LOVE TESTS!!!

I KNOW THE ANSWER! ists 44!!!

nice, I was thinking of doing this when the wap page came out (as the other widely used statimage (that I use) is quite slow)... but somehow didn't find any free time, looks like don't have to parse that page now ;)

________<br>We\'re not living in a black and white world

2 things I had to do with it...1 to get it to run, 1 for security, haven't looked at the rest of the code, but as it's only gd stuff I trust your code :)

1. I use Debian stable(woody) as webserver, and that use php prior to 4.3.0 so I added this function at the bottom of the script:


function file_get_contents($file)
{
return implode('',file($file)); //file reads into an array, implode puts it all in one line with no separator
}


2. I don't like Register Globals to be on (and is recommended to be off by the php team), so I made this just after the $statspath declaration, to make it a bit more secure (as it converts the input to an integer aswell):
$id = intval($_GET['id']);

---

________<br>We\'re not living in a black and white world

thx @ FrankH!

based on your ideas I modified the script in the following way:

1)
if file_get_contents() is not supportet by PHP, I use your function, otherwise the original one (I read somewhere that it would be faster).

2)
thx for finding this, I try to write my scripts safe, too ;)
I added > $id = intval($_GET['id']); just where you put it.

The new Version is downloadable by the same link as the first one.

See ya!

Hi@all,

I just noticed that Einstein@home has now a Webinterface with WAP-Support, so I extended my script to support Einstein, too.

Other changes in the new version 1.2:
- script is now named boincwapstats as it supports not only SETI
- I added more comments in the code to make it easier to read (and understand ^^)
- I added optional english language
- with counter.php?update_check you can now check whether there is a new version available

You can use it by the following URLs:

SETI:
http://petrus.homeftp.org/scripting/boincwapstats/counter.php?id=[Your SETI-ID]
Einstein:
http://petrus.homeftp.org/scripting/boincwapstats/counter_einstein.php?id=[Your Einstein-ID]

The downloadlink is the same as above.

See ya
Petrus

PS: Does anyone know how I can publish the script at the Einstein@home-Forum (I don't have an account there yet so I can't post...)

- some other changes/improvements

Downloadlink / counterlink are both the same as always (see previous posts)

I wanted to thank you for creating this Boinc wapstats script and then making it available for Users to download and modify for their own use. I've enjoyed making different versions for my own use. Even though I don't know PHP I've been able to figure it out enough and make some modifications.

My problem with the original script was the size of the type. My eyes are too old to see the small type and the fact I use a 19" TV as a computer monitor doesn't help. ;-)

So I've made versions that are larger. Here are a couple of examples:



These are sample images I saved to a image hosting web site and are static.

Now I need to buy a book about PHP and find the time so I can do more. Win the lottery and retire... that's the answer.

Regards :-)

The output picture (which I think is the thing most users could want to modify) is generated by the Grapics Library, which is a PHP extension.
So if anyone wants to know better about the functions it provides, here is the official homepage, and here is the part of the PHP-manual which deals with GD. Explains quite a lot!

Have you implmeneted image caching yet? Janus did for boinc.dk and I'm trying to figure out exactly how to manage it for my sigs script....

Hi AthlonRob,

I don't think that caching is sensible for a script with unlimited users because of getting a really HUGE cachefolder ;)

anyway, I wrote code for caching some time ago, so I can post it:

-------------

first we need 2 variables:

$enable_cache = true;
$cachetime = 30; // Cachetime in minutes

-------------

then we need this piece of code before any other things (to save CPU time):
if($enable_cache) {

$cache_s_time = $cachetime * 60;
$cachepic = "$user.png";

if(file_exists($cachepic)) {
$filemtime = filemtime($cachepic);
$time_for_cache = time() - $cache_s_time;
if($filemtime > $time_for_cache) {
Header("Content-type: image/png");
$im = ImageCreateFromPNG($cachepic);
ImagePNG($im);
die();
}
}
}

-------------

finally we need to put this code just before the "ImagePNG()" command:

if($enable_cache) {

ImagePNG($im,"$user.png");

}

-------------
If you have any questions, feel free to ask here :)

Again some news:

Version 1.5 is out: (Yes, 1.4 is missing. That's because I added Astropulse and a few days later Pirates without releasing 1.4)

Improvements:
- Astropulse added
- Pirates added
- Bugfixing

URLS:
- Astropulse: http://petrus.homeftp.org/scripting/boincwapstats/counter_astropulse.php?id=[Your astropulse-ID]
- Pirates: http://petrus.homeftp.org/scripting/boincwapstats/counter_pirates.php?id=[Your pirates-ID]

Download the sourcecode here (same link as always)

Have a nice day!
Petrus

(PS: Currently I'm working on v2.0, will release that soon I hope ^^)

OK, I just finished v2.0!

Minor changes are:
- Variables, paths and other stuff is stored in config.php
- improved code
- bugfixing

These are all rather small things, but I also added the completely new function Summary-Counter which I will explain here:

This is my summary-picture->

As you can see, the function lists all projects and calculates the total BOINC credit.

Usage: add the following to the URL -> ?
- name=[Your nick] &
- team=[Your team] &
and for every project you participate...
- seti=[Your SETI-ID] &
- climate=[Your climate-ID] &
- astropulse=[Your Astropulse-ID] &
- einstein=[Your Einstein-ID] &
- pirates=[Your Pirates-ID]

Outstanding work!

Thanks again!

Hi again:

new version 2.1 is available:

- colors and linethickness are adjustable by GET-commands:
-> ctx = text color
-> cbo = border color
-> cbg = background color
use it this way: ?ctx=[Hex-color without #, for example FF0000)
-> linethickness (only 1 and 2 are allowed as values)

- code slightly improved

- fixed a small bug

- new function for RAW-output added:
in order to use that ability, you have to set $allow_raw_output to
true in your config.php
With this function, you can provide a formatted data output for users who
don't have PHP-support.
Use it like summary.php (?seti=[ID]&einstein=[ID]...). With method=, you can
specify the output format (can be XML, JS or PHP)

Examples with my SETI- and climate-stats:
XML - JavaScript - PHP

Again a new version ^^ (v2.2):

improvements:
- parts of the code new written to increase speed and get smaller files
- languages can be edited or added (if you are interested in adding a new language, please look at the subfolder /lang and contact me via ICQ / email)

sourcecode is available by the same link as always :)

Oops, sorry for the late response...

I was actually talking about allowing client-side caching. I think I have it figured out, now, though....
