About

Have you ever used Rust's in-game art tool to make something that you have so much pride over that you wish you could hang onto it wipe-to-wipe? SignUploadAPI is for you: save your art and your memories.

This plug-in is a simple tool to allow players with the appropriate permission level the ability to upload the art of an in-game sign they are looking at to Imgur. The plug-in may optionally be integrated with DiscordCore, to DM the player the Imgur link or post to a channel, and/or ServerRewards, to deduct a configurable amount of RP from the player's balance. To prevent players from spamming the functionality, a configurable cooldown is included.

This plug-in is NOT a copy of Sign Artist, which allows players to download pictures from a web address to the server's file storage. SignUploadAPI delivers the opposite functionality: giving players a way to upload pictures from the server's file storage to a web address on Imgur.

If a Photo Frame is selected and contains a Photo, the photo file itself will be exported.

Examples

Configuration

{
  "Chat Command": "uploadsign",
  "Use Discord Core": false,
  "Discord Channel to Upload to": "",
  "Use Server Rewards": false,
  "Cost to Upload": 20,
  "Cooldown Between Uploads (seconds)": 30.0
}

• Use Discord Core: Upon enabling this, if DiscordCore is successfully loaded players who have linked their Discord accounts with their Steam accounts on the server will receive a DM including the picture. This does not post to a channel on it's own.
• Discord Channel to Upload to: DiscordCore will post the file to the specified channel on your Discord server.
• Cost to Upload: This is the amount of RP which is deducted upon an upload attempt to Imgur if Use Server Rewards is set to true.

• signuploadapi.free Allows the player or group to use the plugin free of charge.
