CCWiki



I saw that no one had made this, so I gave it a go. This program allows you to browse information for all of the items in ComputerCraft. Instead of switching windows to visit your browser, you can walk over to your computer in Minecraft and look here instead.

Features:
- Database updates automatically and instantly via Pastebin
- Search through all of the database entries
- View the index of all of the database entries
- Mouse scrolling to support entries of any length

To-Do's:
- Cleanup code
- React to screen size changes
- More complete database that can be modified on Github
- Support normal computers
- Work with Peripheral Manager

Screenies:
SpoilerHome screen:


Search function:


Wiki article:

NOTE: This is clearly not a complete database. I felt that it was only necessary to include the recipes for ComputerCraft items. This does not include other information.

Download:

pastebin get tbkPYZWp ccwiki
Or
packman install ccwiki

SUGGESTIONS: If you would like me to add items from other Peripheral Addons, let me know in the comments.

Maybe you can take info from the real wiki. Parse the info and put it on the database.

Thanks! I appreciate the compliments! If you have any other articles I should add or existing articles that I should elaborate on, please let me know.

offtopic: There has to be a bug with the forums or the cookies on my computer. For me, the topic kept saying that there was 3 replies, but yours wasn't visible at all. Weird.

ontopic: That's an interesting idea. I could either parse it live in the browser, or I could put that information in the pre-existing database. Either way, I'll have to add scroll support first in order to allow any length of a page.
