Luanti Web Services Proxy

[bgstack15]

I wrote a small project that makes it easy to use multiple instances of ContentDB and Serverlist in Luanti. Because the official ContentDB is very picky about what mods are allowed (under the laws where they are hosted, among other reasons), there might be other places to get packages, i.e., games, mods, and texture packs. I'm not aware of any other public ContentDB instances, but maybe somebody could share any. They would be easy to use simultaneously with official ContentDB when using this new project.

This new project is named lwsp and runs in docker or directly with python3/flask.

Use LWSP for ContentDB and Serverlist when you want your Luanti client to easily access multiple ContentDB instances, or multiple Serverlist instances, or both.

Because of the way a ContentDB instance enforces mod dependencies to be resolvable within that instance, any dependencies for a package will be resolvable from that one instance only.

This is not designed for a general-purpose website to manage multiple ContentDB instances' packages; it is only a shim for Luanti clients to use.
