Could I write a 3ds homebrew to update/install homebrew using this site for the downloads?
And if so, is there an api/way to pull a list of all apps I can use?

You need to know how to download from github since the page doesnt anythng, just links to the github page of the proyect

No, you can pull the direct links from the site. Quote:

The download link is:

• Cia: homebrewhub.xyz/latest/cia/<author>/<application>
• 3dsx: homebrewhub.xyz/latest/<author>/<application>

The Cia download for 2048-3D for example would be:

• homebrewhub.xyz/latest/cia/MrJPGames/2048-3D

I like the idea of this site, this seems like a really good way for new developers to get more people downloading their software. Maybe you could create a sort of "Homebrew of the Day" thing to give a shoutout to small homebrew projects which are very good/useful.

There is no publicly visible api, but we plan on making one just for his purpose.

Do you need some help on the web part?

 

[Tjessx]

The problem with updating is that you need to know which version you've got currently installed

Not really at this point, but thanks!

Nice! So atm, there's no public file with a list of downloads? Would make things way easier.

No, but i could post a dummy file with the same format if you want (you prefer Json or xml?)

Could you just use plaintext in a .cfg file? Lua doesn't like xml or json very much.
Something like

name:link:version

would be perfect.
This probably sounds stupid, but eh. If I had to choose between xml or json, json.

i would choose Json as well. ok, just pretend that that'll be the format for now, i'll put it online when you've got something

I would recommend using json, since that's usually the best choice when it comes to public web apis.

You can find pure lua .json parsers if you want to use it in lua.

The server backend is in PHP (json_encode($object/array))

The database should automatically refresh each 30 minutes now, people should have to wait on the first page visit each 30 minutes anymore.
