CBADK

App Dev Kit for Chaturbate

What is this?

Well the name says it all: This tool is supposed to help develop and test Apps for CB. I decided to not attempt to make a website copy of CB and build features around it, instead i did my own implementation to realize features that i think are important. Unfortunately the CB API didn't gave me much to work with, so i filled the gaps with tests and guesswork.

Who is this for?

Originally for me since the old ADK linked in the CB API is outdated and misses a lot of features. I make barely everything i code open source so others can profit from it. Doesn't matter if you are a beginner or a pro, you should be able to work fine with this.

Feautures

• All API functions.
• Multi-User support.
  • You can create users and get the POV of the user you select (notices, cam etc.)
  • You can act as any user at any time (chat, tip, enter/leave room etc.)
• Debugger
• Easy chat fontsize adjustment
  • As a broadcaster i can tell you a lot of us greatly increase the fontsize since we usually sit between 1m and 5m away from the screen.
  • Notice-spamming or real big notices fill up the whole chat window disturbingly often, so you should think of (and test) that while developing.
• Image support (without animations)
  • ":whatever" will load "Images/whatever.(jpg/png/gif)"
• Code warnings.
  • Let's face it, the CB appengine has a few flaws. I attempt to give warnings if your code does something stupid.

Make it better

Don't hesitate to report bugs, make feature/pull requests or mail me. I originally did this for myself and didn't intend to fit the needs of everyone.

Compile

It is completely portable and only depends on Qt(5.7) to build.

qmake && make

• Windows
• Since Windows-people usually don't like to compile things i put up a release file. It's just blindly cross compiled with MXE and never tested. If it doesn't work just get Qt and compile it yourself, it's maybe 10clicks and a coffee. There is no knowledge of C++ required to complie and run a project (a chimpanse can do it).
