| Database
|
Put more stuff in parameters in URL (e.g. for search) so that more stuff can be linked to
|
|
| Database
|
Each archive (at least) could have a permanent ID (GUID or similar), and pages should be accessible via URL with that ID, so that database entries can be referred to by third party projects (like Wikidata), without there being a risk of the ID changing.
|
|
| Database
|
Locked DATs should still be viewable.
|
|
| Database
|
It would be more efficient for the user if all forms (archive, source, file, attachment) were all on one edit page
|
|
| Database
|
"Extra" (user-specified) fields like the archive has would be useful for sources and files too
|
|
| Database
|
If an archive only has some files MIA, then the tag in Search and the top of the archive page should say "Partially Missing" or something like that, not just say "Missing".
|
|
| Database
|
DAT files could be cryptographically signed so people can tell if reuploads of the dat files are genuine. Probably best to include a text file with the filename, size in bytes and sha256 of each file in the download, and then sign that.

WIP by Hiccup
|
| Database
|
A new, modern, database should be developed.
|
There is something in development by a third party in private, that is making good progress. May be worth waiting to see how that gets on.
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Create a YAML/YAML-like format for submissions in forums, as an alternative for the formats people end up "making up"
|
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Create a script that datters can use locally to convert the YAML format (or just variable human-readable text format) into the DoM import XML
|
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Make import XML support all DoM fields and use names consistent with those DoM fields
|
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Create schema for import XML
|
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Use same XML format for export (instead of the "plain text" format that doesn't have all the fields)
|
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Create API to allow specific data to be retrieved/added to DoM:
- Allows emulators/dump tools to interact with DoM
- Check ROM status
- Submit data directly
|
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Change-request system. I.e. Datters could accept/reject/edit/add comments to submissions by non-datters (maybe even people without logins)
|
|
| Data Import/Export
|
Allow CSV import
|
|
| New Database Fields
|
All fields where people use commas to separate values should probably be split into multiple fields?
|
|
| New Database Fields
|
Scene releases should have a Region field, like "normal" sources.
|
Done
|
| New Database Fields
|
Maybe add faster hash types. E.g. BLAKE3 (cryptographic hash, faster than SHA256 but less common) or xxhash (even faster but not a cryptographic hash).
|
|
| Input Validation
|
Some formats should have certain file extensions and vice versa. E.g.:
- N64 - BigEndian = z64, ByteSwapped = v64.
|
|
| Input Validation
|
Serials generally follow a certain format
- N64 - BigEndian = z64, ByteSwapped = v64.
|
|
| Input Validation
|
There is generally a fixed list of PCB serials for each system.
|
|
| Input Validation
|
Some sizes are invalid (or unlikely) for some systems
