ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 3.2.3 has been released with the following features:
* Added the option to generate output in JSON format instead of HTML format, possibly to allow others to extend MaGog's functionality [suggested by ChrisSD]
* Added the ability to double-click the "My Date" field to fill it with today's date (useful when updating just-bought games)
* Improved the algorithm used to determine (a.k.a. guess) the correct link to a new game's forum (thus, hopefully, saving me some tedious manual maintenance)
ChrisSD: Would a
JSON api be possible for MaGog? For example if someone adds "&format=json" on the end of a search URL it returns the data as JSON instead of HTM? This would make it easier if others want to scrape your search and build on it for whatever reason.
Done. You might want to take a look. It should be compatible with all the other MaGog features (scope, filter, display, order, etc.).
I tested the JSON output rather briefly against
http://www.freeformatter.com/json-validator.html and
http://jsonlint.com/ (the former is a better validator) and it appears to be legal.
