I have a game/league management bot. I want to tightly integrate it with vB.
It needs to get various info (of group, users in it, certain info on their profile)
It should be able to add/remove user from group
and many other minor things
Now, I'm not sure exactly how I should "link" the bot (running c# on mono and/or java) with vB.
I can create php files with necessary actions. but how should I authenticate?
I can put a "password" variable while calling the php file. I can try using vB's login and get cookie data. which one will be better? or is there any other way?
It needs to be simple from bot's side.
I am seriously feeling the lack of an extensive API on vB's side.
