RetroPie-Manager web app (Recalbox-Manager fork/mod)

@Botolo just out of curiosity how much overhead does this tool have?

@meleu said in Recalbox Manager port:

Merged, thanks :)

I'd say almost nothing

@Botolo yeah I just tested it and it's very lightweight. Once we sort out the repository stuff we can add some things like the runcommand log. A few icon changes, maybe the colours too. I can get a working module that will automate the install somewhat and we can throw it on zerojays retropie-extra extra repository

Sounds good.
I'd like to add a syntax JS to the editor too.Do you think we should get rid of the original recalbox variables?

I think yes. I'll try to do it tonight.

I found a problem. The RetroPie-Manager isn't able to show subdirs in ROMs directories.
For example, my/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/neshas the following subdirs:
0-9/
a/
b/
c/
d/
etcetera...When I open the NES' ROMs dir in RetroPie-Manager, it's empty.

I know, but this could be tricky to solve since that module has been designed for a single level folder structure.

@Botolo dude, you and you're friends are amazing!

Thanks. I'm happy @meleu and @herb_fargus wanted to help :)

Hey guys!
A small update:
A did a small script to simplify the commands to start/stop the RetroPie-Manager.
Take a look at https://github.com/botolo78/RetroPie-Manager again ;-) -
@herb_fargus made an adjustment and now the RetroPie-Manager can run on a ubuntu-based RetroPie.
@Botolo maybe you should rename this thread to "RetroPie-Manager web server", what do you think? ;-)

@Botolo Well... It's really a server (a system that responds to requests across a computer network to provide a service). But we don't care about these formalities! Name it as you like ;-)

I know it's a server, but I don't wont to let people think you need to install a new server :D

@Botolo Do you mind if I modify it myself to port in my Backup/restore script into it?
I like the interface makes things alot smoother then the current way of doing things

Hey! It's on github man! There is no need to ask for it!
Just fork and play with the code. If you think your changes are usefull and want to share, do a Pull Request so we can see what you did. -
Sure, you can do whatever you want :)
I'm playing around with django now because I'd like to understand what's under the hood. It's possible in the future I'll release a new version (with another repo of course) not forked from Recalbox Manager and completely written from scratch.I'd like to extend it's functions so we will be able to manage rom subfolders (1 level i think) and play around some more with roms and files.
Any request from you?
