generify via a config

[sleepingdragoninn]

I reckon we can do a little bit of work to make this a generic "player roles sync via rest api" mod. sounds like a nice vanity project.

plus then it can go on modrinth.

kaleido config with:

• URL with placeholder for minecraft accound ID for user fetching, key list to pull role string OR array from (append them)
• URL to fetch event from for phase checking, key to pull phase string from
• Map of role strings to player role IDs
• Map of role strings to phase regex

user_api = "platform.modfest.net/user/mc:%s"
user_keys = ["registered", "role"]

state_api = "https://platform.modfest.net/event/toybox"
state_key = "phase"

[roles]
  "team_member" = "team"
  "volunteer" = "participant"
  "toybox" = "participant"

[conditions]
  "toybox" = "testing|building|showcase"

Okay that is interesting. That would require a re-architecture of how role-sync works though. Currently it maintains a local list of all users, with any updates being streamed via platform (with fallback to polling /users)
This would frankly work great as well, it would needs some caching logic though, since I want role-sync to work on cached data if platform goes down.
Additionally, minecraft accounts are private data. We should not be sharing them in generic api's. Sp we should ask the question if an endpoint like used here should have auth too. I think it's safer to say yes (it's already authed atm, can easily be included in the config)
