claude document this part of the files i gave mistral like it is back when models had small contexts sorry i am all confused https://claude.ai/share/aaad26b1-25f4-47fe-ae20-c2e09aaca6a3 Can you draft a concise spec for game-search.php ? here is an example hand-copied request. I think the different fields are in the attached source, correct me if I am wrong. method: POST url: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/mvc/services/game-search.php Content-Type: application/json postData: {"page-number":"1","title-or-author":"","sort":"5"} response: {"game_results":[{"id":2858,"name":"Another Heaven","author":"Akril15","filename":"\/site\/assets\/img\/games\/thumbs\/2858_1.png","release_date":"2025-04-20 19:54:59","panel_rating":0,"player_rating_avg":-1,"awards_winner":null,"awards_nominee":null,"downloads_total":36,"downloads_this_month":36,"panel_date":null,"picks_month":null,"total_results":2485,"sort_type":5,"filter_type":0,"play_in_browser":0},... Edit Looking at the provided HTML document and sample API request, I can draft a specification for game-search.php. This appears to be the backend service that handles game search requests for the Adventure Game Studio website. Here's a concise specification for game-search.php: # game-search.php API Specification ## Overview Endpoint for searching games in the Adventure Game Studio database. The service accepts search criteria and returns matching game results in JSON format. ## Endpoint URL: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/mvc/services/game-search.php Method: POST Content-Type: application/json ## Request Parameters - page-number (integer): Page number for pagination - title-or-author (string): Search text for game title or author name - sort (string): Sorting method ID, options include: - "1": Title A-Z - "2": Title Z-A - "3": Author A-Z - "4": Author Z-A - "5": Newest Releases (default) - "6": Oldest Releases - "7": Highest Panel Rating - "8": Lowest Panel Rating - "9": Highest Player Rating - "10": Lowest Player Rating - "11": AGS Awards Won - "12": Most Popular Ever - "13": Most Popular This Month - "14": Newest Comments - "15": Newest Picks of the Month - "16": Newest Panel Rating - "17": Oldest Panel Rating - Additional filter parameters (optional): - Various filters observed in the HTML like genre, language, platform, etc. ## Response Format JSON object containing: - game_results (array): List of game objects with properties: - id (integer): Unique game identifier - name (string): Game title - author (string): Game creator - filename (string): Path to thumbnail image - release_date (string): ISO format date/time of release - panel_rating (integer/float): Editorial rating - player_rating_avg (float): Average user rating (-1 if none) - awards_winner (mixed): Award winner information - awards_nominee (mixed): Award nomination information - downloads_total (integer): Total download count - downloads_this_month (integer): Downloads in current month - panel_date (string): Date of panel rating - picks_month (mixed): Featured month information - total_results (integer): Total number of games matching criteria - sort_type (integer): Sort method used - filter_type (integer): Filter method used - play_in_browser (integer): Browser playability flag (0/1) ## Sample Request ```json { "page-number": "1", "title-or-author": "", "sort": "5" } Sample Response json { "game_results": [ { "id": 2858, "name": "Another Heaven", "author": "Akril15", "filename": "/site/assets/img/games/thumbs/2858_1.png", "release_date": "2025-04-20 19:54:59", "panel_rating": 0, "player_rating_avg": -1, "awards_winner": null, "awards_nominee": null, "downloads_total": 36, "downloads_this_month": 36, "panel_date": null, "picks_month": null, "total_results": 2485, "sort_type": 5, "filter_type": 0, "play_in_browser": 0 }, // Additional game results... ] } Additional Notes The service likely supports additional filtering parameters not shown in the sample request but present in the HTML form, including filters for genre, release year, platform compatibility, etc. Pagination is handled through the page-number parameter, with results per page likely defined server-side. This specification is based on the HTML document provided and the example request you shared. The Adventure Game Studio website appears to have a robust search system with multiple filtering and sorting options to help users find games that match their interests. Is it easy to correctly include filtering in the specification? Edit Looking more carefully at the HTML document, I can enhance the specification to include the filtering options. While the filters aren't explicitly shown in the main content (they appear to be loaded dynamically into #desktop-filter-content and #mobile-filter-content), I can infer the likely filter parameters from the sorting options and other clues in the code. Here's an expanded specification that includes the filtering parameters: # game-search.php API Specification ## Overview Endpoint for searching games in the Adventure Game Studio database. The service accepts search criteria, filtering, and sorting parameters and returns matching game results in JSON format. ## Endpoint URL: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/mvc/services/game-search.php Method: POST Content-Type: application/json ## Request Parameters - page-number (integer): Page number for pagination - title-or-author (string): Search text for game title or author name - sort (string): Sorting method ID, options include: - "1": Title A-Z - "2": Title Z-A - "3": Author A-Z - "4": Author Z-A - "5": Newest Releases (default) - "6": Oldest Releases - "7": Highest Panel Rating - "8": Lowest Panel Rating - "9": Highest Player Rating - "10": Lowest Player Rating - "11": AGS Awards Won - "12": Most Popular Ever - "13": Most Popular This Month - "14": Newest Comments - "15": Newest Picks of the Month - "16": Newest Panel Rating - "17": Oldest Panel Rating ## Filter Parameters Based on the UI elements and site context, likely filter parameters include: - genre (array/string): Game genres (adventure, horror, comedy, etc.) - language (array/string): Game languages - resolution (array/string): Game screen resolutions - release-year (array/string): Year of release - ags-version (array/string): AGS engine version used - platform (array/string): Compatible platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.) - price (string): Game pricing model (free, commercial, etc.) - status (string): Development status (complete, in-progress, etc.) - awards (boolean): Filter for award-winning games - pick-of-month (boolean): Filter for featured "pick of the month" games - mags-entry (boolean): Filter for MAGS competition entries (referenced in the menu) - play-in-browser (boolean): Filter for browser-playable games - panel-rated (boolean): Filter for games with editorial ratings - player-rated (boolean): Filter for games with player ratings ## Response Format JSON object containing: - game_results (array): List of game objects with properties: - id (integer): Unique game identifier - name (string): Game title - author (string): Game creator - filename (string): Path to thumbnail image - release_date (string): ISO format date/time of release - panel_rating (integer/float): Editorial rating - player_rating_avg (float): Average user rating (-1 if none) - awards_winner (mixed): Award winner information - awards_nominee (mixed): Award nomination information - downloads_total (integer): Total download count - downloads_this_month (integer): Downloads in current month - panel_date (string): Date of panel rating - picks_month (mixed): Featured month information - total_results (integer): Total number of games matching criteria - sort_type (integer): Sort method used - filter_type (integer): Filter method used - play_in_browser (integer): Browser playability flag (0/1) ## Sample Request with Filters ```json { "page-number": "1", "title-or-author": "quest", "sort": "5", "genre": ["adventure", "comedy"], "platform": ["windows"], "awards": true, "release-year": ["2020", "2021", "2022"] } Sample Response [Same as in previous specification] Additional Notes Filter parameters may be sent as strings, arrays, or boolean values depending on the filter type The API likely supports multiple selections for category-type filters (genres, platforms, etc.) The URL in the menu for MAGS entries ("/play/search/&q=other-mags ;newest-releases ") suggests that filters might also be supported in a URL query string format The exact parameter names and formats would need to be confirmed by inspecting the site's JavaScript code or through API testing Without seeing the actual filter implementation in the site's JavaScript or examining additional API requests, this is an educated guess based on the provided HTML document and common practices for search APIs. The actual parameter names and formats may differ, but this specification provides a reasonable starting point. Ok, write a concise final specification without surrounding text, but remove anything guessed. Instead mention that these things may exist and further documentation would be needed to identify them. Edit # game-search.php API Specification ## Overview Endpoint for searching games in the Adventure Game Studio database. ## Endpoint URL: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/mvc/services/game-search.php Method: POST Content-Type: application/json ## Request Parameters - page-number (integer): Page number for pagination - title-or-author (string): Search text for game title or author name - sort (string): Sorting method ID, options include: - "1": Title A-Z - "2": Title Z-A - "3": Author A-Z - "4": Author Z-A - "5": Newest Releases (default) - "6": Oldest Releases - "7": Highest Panel Rating - "8": Lowest Panel Rating - "9": Highest Player Rating - "10": Lowest Player Rating - "11": AGS Awards Won - "12": Most Popular Ever - "13": Most Popular This Month - "14": Newest Comments - "15": Newest Picks of the Month - "16": Newest Panel Rating - "17": Oldest Panel Rating ## Additional Filter Parameters Additional filtering options likely exist based on UI elements referenced in the HTML. These may include genres, platforms, release years, language, etc. Further documentation or code analysis would be needed to identify the exact parameter names and formats. ## Response Format JSON object containing: - game_results (array): List of game objects with properties: - id (integer): Unique game identifier - name (string): Game title - author (string): Game creator - filename (string): Path to thumbnail image - release_date (string): ISO format date/time of release - panel_rating (integer/float): Editorial rating - player_rating_avg (float): Average user rating (-1 if none) - awards_winner (mixed): Award winner information - awards_nominee (mixed): Award nomination information - downloads_total (integer): Total download count - downloads_this_month (integer): Downloads in current month - panel_date (string): Date of panel rating - picks_month (mixed): Featured month information - total_results (integer): Total number of games matching criteria - sort_type (integer): Sort method used - filter_type (integer): Filter method used - play_in_browser (integer): Browser playability flag (0/1) ## Sample Request ```json { "page-number": "1", "title-or-author": "", "sort": "5" } Sample Response json { "game_results": [ { "id": 2858, "name": "Another Heaven", "author": "Akril15", "filename": "/site/assets/img/games/thumbs/2858_1.png", "release_date": "2025-04-20 19:54:59", "panel_rating": 0, "player_rating_avg": -1, "awards_winner": null, "awards_nominee": null, "downloads_total": 36, "downloads_this_month": 36, "panel_date": null, "picks_month": null, "total_results": 2485, "sort_type": 5, "filter_type": 0, "play_in_browser": 0 } // Additional game results... ] } Notes The number of results per page appears to be defined server-side The HTML suggests there are additional filtering mechanisms not documented here The URL pattern "/play/search/&q=other-mags ;newest-releases " suggests an alternative query format may be supported oh wait a minute, title-or-author is not the only search field. the form provides many search fields. did you compare with the html source in detail? Edit You're absolutely right, and I apologize for missing this. Let me look more carefully at the HTML source to identify the actual form fields in the search interface. Looking at the HTML more closely, I notice something important: while there is a form with ID "form" and input fields like "title-or-author", the actual filter fields aren't directly visible in the HTML. There are placeholders where filter content should be loaded: <div id="desktop-filter-content" class="col-lg-3 d-none d-lg-block"></div> - Desktop filter container <div id="mobile-filter-content" class="card-body"></div> - Mobile filter container These elements appear to be empty in the provided HTML, suggesting that the filter options are loaded dynamically via JavaScript after the page loads. Additionally, I see references to JavaScript files that likely handle the search functionality: /site/assets/js/search.min.js Without seeing the actual filter fields that are loaded dynamically, I can't accurately list all the search parameters available. The only concrete fields I can see in the provided HTML are: "title-or-author" "sort" "page-number" Let me revise the specification to reflect this uncertainty: # game-search.php API Specification ## Overview Endpoint for searching games in the Adventure Game Studio database. ## Endpoint URL: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/mvc/services/game-search.php Method: POST Content-Type: application/json ## Known Request Parameters - page-number (integer): Page number for pagination - title-or-author (string): Search text for game title or author name - sort (string): Sorting method ID, options include: - "1": Title A-Z - "2": Title Z-A - "3": Author A-Z - "4": Author Z-A - "5": Newest Releases (default) - "6": Oldest Releases - "7": Highest Panel Rating - "8": Lowest Panel Rating - "9": Highest Player Rating - "10": Lowest Player Rating - "11": AGS Awards Won - "12": Most Popular Ever - "13": Most Popular This Month - "14": Newest Comments - "15": Newest Picks of the Month - "16": Newest Panel Rating - "17": Oldest Panel Rating ## Additional Parameters The HTML indicates that additional search filters exist but are loaded dynamically into the page. These filters are not visible in the static HTML provided. To identify all available search parameters, examination of the JavaScript code (particularly search.min.js) or network monitoring during form interactions would be needed. The presence of dedicated filter containers in the HTML suggests a comprehensive filtering system, likely including game genres, platforms, release years, and other attributes. ## Response Format JSON object containing: - game_results (array): List of game objects with properties: - id (integer): Unique game identifier - name (string): Game title - author (string): Game creator - filename (string): Path to thumbnail image - release_date (string): ISO format date/time of release - panel_rating (integer/float): Editorial rating - player_rating_avg (float): Average user rating (-1 if none) - awards_winner (mixed): Award winner information - awards_nominee (mixed): Award nomination information - downloads_total (integer): Total download count - downloads_this_month (integer): Downloads in current month - panel_date (string): Date of panel rating - picks_month (mixed): Featured month information - total_results (integer): Total number of games matching criteria - sort_type (integer): Sort method used - filter_type (integer): Filter method used - play_in_browser (integer): Browser playability flag (0/1) ## Sample Request ```json { "page-number": "1", "title-or-author": "", "sort": "5" } Sample Response json { "game_results": [ { "id": 2858, "name": "Another Heaven", "author": "Akril15", "filename": "/site/assets/img/games/thumbs/2858_1.png", "release_date": "2025-04-20 19:54:59", "panel_rating": 0, "player_rating_avg": -1, "awards_winner": null, "awards_nominee": null, "downloads_total": 36, "downloads_this_month": 36, "panel_date": null, "picks_month": null, "total_results": 2485, "sort_type": 5, "filter_type": 0, "play_in_browser": 0 } ] } apologies. the fields i was talking about are the filters that are dynamically loaded that you were talking about. they're also normal html input fields, they're all in one file called search-filter-content.php . can you document that? Edit I understand now. The filter fields are loaded dynamically from a separate file called search-filter-content.php. While this file wasn't included in the provided source, I can add a section to the specification noting this and explaining that these fields would need to be documented separately. Here's the updated specification: # game-search.php API Specification ## Overview Endpoint for searching games in the Adventure Game Studio database. ## Endpoint URL: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/mvc/services/game-search.php Method: POST Content-Type: application/json ## Known Request Parameters - page-number (integer): Page number for pagination - title-or-author (string): Search text for game title or author name - sort (string): Sorting method ID, options include: - "1": Title A-Z - "2": Title Z-A - "3": Author A-Z - "4": Author Z-A - "5": Newest Releases (default) - "6": Oldest Releases - "7": Highest Panel Rating - "8": Lowest Panel Rating - "9": Highest Player Rating - "10": Lowest Player Rating - "11": AGS Awards Won - "12": Most Popular Ever - "13": Most Popular This Month - "14": Newest Comments - "15": Newest Picks of the Month - "16": Newest Panel Rating - "17": Oldest Panel Rating ## Filter Parameters The search filter fields are dynamically loaded from `search-filter-content.php` into the desktop and mobile filter containers. These fields are likely to include: - Genre filters - Platform compatibility filters - Release year filters - Language filters - Rating filters - Special category filters (awards, featured games, etc.) A comprehensive documentation of these fields would require examination of the `search-filter-content.php` file, which is not included in the provided source. The API likely accepts these filter parameters in addition to the ones documented above. ## Response Format JSON object containing: - game_results (array): List of game objects with properties: - id (integer): Unique game identifier - name (string): Game title - author (string): Game creator - filename (string): Path to thumbnail image - release_date (string): ISO format date/time of release - panel_rating (integer/float): Editorial rating - player_rating_avg (float): Average user rating (-1 if none) - awards_winner (mixed): Award winner information - awards_nominee (mixed): Award nomination information - downloads_total (integer): Total download count - downloads_this_month (integer): Downloads in current month - panel_date (string): Date of panel rating - picks_month (mixed): Featured month information - total_results (integer): Total number of games matching criteria - sort_type (integer): Sort method used - filter_type (integer): Filter method used - play_in_browser (integer): Browser playability flag (0/1) ## Sample Request ```json { "page-number": "1", "title-or-author": "", "sort": "5" } Sample Response json { "game_results": [ { "id": 2858, "name": "Another Heaven", "author": "Akril15", "filename": "/site/assets/img/games/thumbs/2858_1.png", "release_date": "2025-04-20 19:54:59", "panel_rating": 0, "player_rating_avg": -1, "awards_winner": null, "awards_nominee": null, "downloads_total": 36, "downloads_this_month": 36, "panel_date": null, "picks_month": null, "total_results": 2485, "sort_type": 5, "filter_type": 0, "play_in_browser": 0 } ] } Notes For complete documentation of filter parameters, the contents of search-filter-content.php would need to be examined The application's JavaScript (particularly search.min.js) likely handles the collection of all form fields and filters before submitting to the API Network monitoring during form interactions would reveal the complete structure of requests with filters applied
