Server telemetry in json format about dcs-slmod HOT 7 OPEN

I guess my question is which telemetry?

The DCS server API has functions to convert a string between lua and json. So it can be done relatively easily. I don't have a whole lot of experience coding stuff with sockets, all that code in slmod was written by Speed, so I'd have to figure that part out.

net.lua2json(value) -> string
Convert a Lua value to JSON string
net.json2lua(json_string) -> value
Convert JSON string to a Lua value

This would be a great addition as parsing LUA is a pain in the arse.

Stats have had an option to export them in json format since this commit 17bf67a
It isn't constantly written to like the lua version, to be honest I'm not sure if thats possible with json.

Aside for that the events output will have an option for json format in the next commit. Not sure what else would make sense to be available in json format, but its doable with the net.lua2json and that ED fixed it a few patches back.

Dear MrSkortch, when is updated the json file that Slmod exports?

from dcs-slmod.

It saves anytime the lua file gets loaded, which happens once when a mission is loaded and is setup to occur again during a mission after 10,000 writes to the stats file.

Dear MrSkortch, regarding the json file that is generated specifically for every mission ( mission_name - date .json ),
What information is included there? I've seen that every time the mission starts a new file is generated, Does it mean that the information included there are the new events since the last execution?
When is the file generated?
