This page documents the collections (tables) that Tworld manages in MongoDB.

config

General server configuration and miscellaneous values.

  • _id
  • key (indexed)
  • val (ad-hoc format)

keys are...

  • dbversion: 6 (for this description)
  • playerfields: contains {desc, pronoun} copied to new *players
  • globalscopeid: scid of the single global scope (from *scopes)
  • startworldid: wid of the starting (solo) world (from *worlds)
  • startworldloc: loc key of start location in startworld
  • firstportal: {wid, scid, locid} for a player's first portlist entry (if absent, startworld is used)
  • noregistration: if true, player registration is not allowed
  • nologin: if true, player login is not allowed (except for admin accounts)
  • lastactive: the timestamp of the last time the tworld server was known to be running

localize

Server text customization. This is where we replace the generic Tworld text with Myst-specific flavor. This table also supports internationalization, although Seltani does not have any yet.

  • _id
  • key
  • lang (None for all-language default)
  • client (optional, True if relayed to client)
  • val
  • (no indexes, because we're going to load this stuff up at launch time) (but logically, it's a compound index on key, lang)

sessions

Web sessions. When a player signs in on the web site, they get a ten-day cookie which matches the sessionid. (Refreshed weekly as long as they're connected to the game.)

  • _id
  • sid: session id (generated by create_session()) (indexed, unique)
  • uid: _id from *players
  • email: from *players
  • name: from *players
  • ipaddr: request.remote_ip
  • starttime: time signed in
  • refreshtime: time that cookie was last refreshed
  • guest: True if this is a guest account (optional)

players

Player account records.

  • _id: uid
  • email: fixed at signup time (indexed, unique)
  • name: changeable by player (indexed, unique)
  • namekey: sluggified name (indexed; not unique, although we try to keep it unique)
  • admin: True for the admin (optional)
  • build: True if the player has build permission (optional)
  • askbuild: True if the player can request build permission via web form (optional)
  • guest: True if this is a guest account (optional) (indexed, sparse index)
  • guestsession: id from *sessions, if the guest account is logged in (optional)
  • pwsalt: added to password before hashing (generated by create_player())
  • password: hash of "pwsalt:password"
