| | Hello all. I am wondering if it is possible to export or convert some of the Database in Penn to MySQL? basically I would like to have a realtime user authentication list for a website that a MUSH player can log on using their MUSH log in and access certain pages and information pertinent to their faction and so forth. Do you guys know if it's even possible? please email me if you know. thanks. | | Top |

| Anything is possible, I suppose. The database format in PennMUSH is fairly straightforward, you could conceivably make it mySQL, however I don't see how that answers your problem.
Maybe have a background thing that every 10 minutes or so saves player information to a mySQL database, and query that for the authentication you require. |

| What I'm looking for is something that is similar to a TinyMUSH function. It allows you to write a SQL statement to INSERT into a databse. I suck at C++ so I was wondering if there was anything already coded that might accomplish this.

| I found this while looking for something else. Check it out. If there is anyway I would love a compiled version with this patch installed. I think I could do some very interesting things with it.
