Greetings -

I hope this is the correct place to post a question like this, if not please direct me to a better spot.

I was wondering if there is some sort of web service call or HTTP Post that I could make to the server to see who is playing a particular module. I am an admin on Discord for a few wargames that have VASSAL modules and it would be nice to have a command that shows whether or not any games are currently active on the server. This would be similar to the VASSAL Server Status but only for a specific module. Any pointers or suggestions would be appreciated.

Also, I just want to thank all of the developers that work so hard to create this amazing toolkit.

Gary Bartlett

Yes, I see that there is a web page that has some type of control that allows a user to expand a specific module and see if anyone is playing. What I was wondering is if the status.php page, or some similar new page, could be enhanced to take the module name as a parameter and return a JSON structure showing the current rooms and players.

Something like -

status.php?module=

Returning something like -

`{
	"module": "someModuleName",
	"rooms": [{
			"Name": "roomName",
			"players": [
				"playerName1",
				"playerName2",
				"playerName3"
			]
		},
		{
			"Name": "anotherRoomName",
			"players": [
				"playerName4",
				"playerName5"
			]
		}
	]
}`
