323473 - Create CGI script for update system

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Camino Graveyard :: Product Site, defect)

Description

[Håkan Waara]

See bug 322592

We'll need a simple CGI/PHP script that takes an URI like this:

http://update.caminobrowser.org/update.php?os_ver=1044?camino_ver=1.0+

And then return a plist with no keys if there's no update (for that OS/camino version) or a full plist with the update info.

For example, if a user with Mac OS X 10.2.8 is querying, and the latest update (say Camino 1.2) requires 10.3, that user will not get that update, but the last 10.2.8-supported Camino.

The script will have to understand that a version string that ends with "+" is trunk, and strip that.

Volunteers?

This won't be needed with the new system in bug 185436.
