0xUniverse is a blockchain-based game on Ethereum.
https://0xuniverse.com

Etherscan is a blockchain explorer for tracking all interactions with the Ethereum blockchain.

(best to make an account here to create an own apiKey for using it for yourself)

This repository is meant to showcase some PHP-coding snippets used to pull data for the 0xUniverse game 
(or more general snippets in the future).

The overall project is a work-in-progress but can already be used to some extent. 
Please have a look here: https://ieffalot.me/0xuniverse/v1/0xhelper/ 

Any feedback, optimalizations, additions, ... are gladly appreciated. Open a new issue here:
https://github.com/iefken/0xUniverse/issues and I'll check what I can do.

./Planet.php:
	- contains the defining class for 'our' Planet object
	- parses the hexadecimal values gotten from Etherscan to decimal values

./PullPlanetData.php:
	- contains initialization of the variables* needed to connect to Etherscan
	- contains the logic to handle the response (with a little help from the Planet.php file)
	- prints the 'json_encoded' values of the Planet.php class
