API Behaviour about simresults HOT 10 CLOSED

Hi schmoomsm ,

Each dropdown option is a result with 1 or multiple logs. Thus you have total control over. For example you could make a results array with season 1, season 2 (in dropdown). And each season result can contain multiple logs (race 1, race 2 etc).

As you can see in the example on the API page:
https://simresults.net/example.json
https://simresults.net/remote?results=https://simresults.net/example.json

In your case you have multiple logs in 1 result array. If you wish to have multiple dropdowns containing just 1 race. Create multiple results array with 1 log only.

Not related but I see now that I should make the config also per result possible (optional). I will make this soon.

Hope it makes sense with the provided example.

Cheers,
Maurice

Thanks again for this great tool!

Great! Though the dropdown active selection seems to be not working fully here when I browse your results page. I think it's a bug on my part. I will look into it Tuesday I think.

Thx!

My site is set-up to not cache json files per your direction and I have my links pointing to a static version number. When my jsons are recreated each day (game server and webserver sync results file once per day and generate a new json per game), will my links continue to show the newest content?

Ye if you increment the version number, simresults should ignore it's own cache and always fetch your updated json.

what if my increment stays at 10? Will I always see dated results, or will it force a refetch each day? Using wordpress so making it increment that version number isn't simple (for me).

Cache is 24 hours. So it will eventually be refetching and up to date.

Excellent. Thx.

The dropdown selection issue is fixed :) Also added support for a config per results group.

I'm closing this issue now. If you have more questions don't hesitate to ask! You helped improve the tool 👍
