Out of Game Data

[tkouan]

I wanted to know if there was an API, if so infoz pls, and if not, what your policy on respectful level of client scraping for the data would be?

 

I've already made a lot of progress parsing through client data, but figured I should probably stop and ask

Currently we provide no API, but we will possibly make some approach to public API at a later stage of development

You're not the only interested in the public API

Please don't make something like XVM possible, it would be toxic for the community.

Well API could be usefull for fansites. For example to show all current RvR status on map etc. I would gladly share this info on my website in future. I used to love Armeagle webiste about PotBS...veru usefull when you offline or at work

This, it would be cool to take the in game map and extract the data so that you can have an up to date map of which ports are owned by who(although, in my opinion the owners of the ports should not be on the ingame map... but that is an entirely different discussion).

Are you ok with scraping until then?
