Extension to interact with the public Scratch API

[GarboMuffin]

Could you add an extension that connects to the scratch api? Because all the other methods are complicated and the turbowarp extensions dont work with it. I would code it myself but I have no idea how.

Do they mean things like getting how many views a project has?

[GarboMuffin]

I assume so

For anyone that wants to do this, you may want to either use our trampoline (https://trampoline.turbowarp.org/proxy/projects/104) or ScratchDB (we can add them to the always-allowed list if someone submits this extension)

i am currently working on a prototype. I will see if it works

@GarboMuffin, aren't you talking about S-Grab?

S-Grab currently doesn't connect to the public Scratch API and doesn't even work for some users.

What does it do then?

Access ScratchDB which appears to be rather unreliable

yeah a few days ago it was not working and now it is?

[yuri-kiss]

if scratchdb is not working it should at least try to access the proxy for turbowarp, https://trampoline.turbowarp.org/

Can't we just use GET to access data from api.scratch.mit.edu?

No, because the Scratch API does not let other sites access it. (TurboWarp uses its own API proxy to access it.)

PR #803 uses TurboWarp's trampoline proxy instead of ScratchDB to fetch stuff from the Scratch API.
