Discuss the Card Hunter API here

erm, how to I query for battle data specific to player name ? Or do I have to process post-query ?

 

Exited to see this. Thanks Jon!

 

Sweeeeeeet!

Hmmm.... I expect that you will hear much clamoring for access to player rating/ranking. I would guess that it makes the most sense to return that data with a battle query, if it's been stored at all.

(Also, apologies, I will probably hit 150 queries very quickly as I poke at the API.)

 

Great ! My first tots are targeted at the AI...tracking daily win rates on the wiki and rating fluctuations. Would also help see if changes to the AI behavior routines work, as well as lotsa other stuff... whee, fun times !!

 

I have no idea how I'm supposed to use this. I'm trying this URL:
http://test-api.cardhunter.com/items?battle_id=155558&player_index=0&character_index=0

And I'm getting I'm getting a completely different battle:

Code:

{"meta":{"total":155561,"first":"/items?count=10&page=first","last":"/items?count=10&page=last","prev":null,"next":"/items?count=10&page=next&demarc=9413:1:1:746"},"items":
[{"id":"9413:1:0:152","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":152,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:429","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":429,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:1023","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":1023,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:1521","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":1521,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:1644","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":1644,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:1673","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":1673,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:100197","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":100197,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:100294","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":100294,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:0:100362","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":0,"itemId":100362,"count":1},
{"id":"9413:1:1:746","battleId":9413,"playerIndex":1,"characterIndex":1,"itemId":746,"count":1}]}

 

There is no battle 15555 on the test server yet, so it's probably returning the latest battle, which is 9413.

 

Ah, nope... these urls (cross-referenced from /battles) also return data for battle 9413:

http://test-api.cardhunter.com/items?battle_id=9401
http://test-api.cardhunter.com/items?battle_id=9398

 

/characters does the right thing, though... -

http://test-api.cardhunter.com/characters?battle_id=9398

 

Okay, trying it with test server IDs works better:
http://test-api.cardhunter.com/items?battleId=180

Note that I'm using "battleId" not "battle_id". Still can't change the player or character values.

The question I was testing: "Is it possible to get items from a character during the battle?"
The answer appears to be "Yes, but only the first character of the first player."

PS. These last five posts should probably be a separate thread, maybe "Idiot's Guide to the API"

 

Is it time to update this thread? Or is it not ready for testing yet?
