This page describes the WML commands exchanged between campaign download clients and a campaign server. Note that this WML is not used in the game engine.

Listing Available Campaigns

This request is used to retrieve a list of campaigns available on the server and some overview information about them.

  • Request
    • [request_campaign_list]
  • Response
    • [campaigns]
      • [campaign]
        • author - author(s) of the campaign.
        • description - description of the campaign. For pre 1.0 campaigns this should also describe the playability.
        • downloads - the number times the campaign (including previous versions) has been downloaded directly from the campaign server.
        • filename - filename campaign is stored in (currently the same as name).
        • icon - path to an image in the standard image directory for Wesnoth. This path must use forward slashes (/). It cannot refer to custom images included with the campaign. This image is displayed as an icon by the campaign client built into Wesnoth.
        • size - the size of the campaign in bytes on the campaign server.
        • timestamp - when this version of the campaign was uploaded.
        • title - campaign title.
        • version - version of the campaign. The recommended format is x.y.z where x, y and z are decimal strings. x should be 0 for campaigns that are not yet complete.

  • Request
    • [upload]
