Utter Chaos Web Comic Engine

Modules

Page Loader

This module creates an XHTML page from the comic template, inserts the image reference to the specified comic, fills in the archive popup menu, and current news entries. As much of this work should be done before hand as possible to make this script run quickly for each page refresh.

Database Interface

This module acts as the abstraction between our internal objects and the database backend. This will probably interface with MySQL.

Comic Uploader

This module uploads comics into the engine and updates the database with the appropriate information.

News Poster

This module is used to add news posts to the database which will be used by the page loader.

Cron Updater

This module is run on a daily basis to post comic updates at a specified time in the future.

Search

This module will run a search for keywords, new posts, and comic dialog.
