Hello. New project for me. I'm trying to do things Proxomitron can't do easily, its RegEx rules confuse me, it's far easier to adapt Lua to this now, especially as Proxomitron really wasn't written to extract a table or two on the assumption that the rest of a large web page was not to be processed...
I've Googled for examples of sockets used in wxLua, with very little result. I'm using W98, so I hope that isn't a problem as it doesn't do 'raw sockets' as I've seen them called, like WXP does. As wxLua is cross-platform, I'm guessing this isn't a problem for W98. Anyway, it seems the best thing to ask for is something simple, a template I can adapt. The two main purposes I can immediately think of are a GET method to fetch a web page so I can filter it and save it to file, then use wx.execute() to ask a browser to display it. An ideal extension of this would be a local web proxy that the brower would reach on 127.0.0.1. This proxy would be entirely written in wxLua and intercept the external input fetched from a server, and filter it as I want, so the browser then shows it as I need. If someone can help with a working template that does at least the basic fetching of a remote web page, please do, it will be a great help to build on that, instead of tryint to guess my way when I have no idea if it is even possible. Most things I read seem to indicate that the wxLua sockets code wasn't finished, though I grant some of the Google results were a year old or more. Trouble is, no-one apparently has any working examples, so there's a need there... Right now I'm using WGET called by wxExecute) but it's not as nice as doing it all in wxLua would be. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
