This is a universal wrapper/client for the official PlayerUnknown's BattleGround's API that runs on Node JS and the browser.

Project owner is Wobow, and is open to contribution.

It includes helpers to do the following :

Matches

• Load and filter matches
• Load a specific match

• Installation
• Usage
• Status
• Contributing
• Running tests
• Roadmap

$ npm install pubg-api@latest -S

After installation, you can import the module to your project using require.

const Pubgapi = require('pubg-api');

const apiInstance = new Pubgapi('<apiKey>');

The module exposes a class that represents an instance of the api, given an official API key that you must provide.

You can then interract with the instance of the API. All routes use promises by default.

For example :

apiInstance
    .loadMatches(options)
    .then(matches => {
        // success
    }, err => {
        // handle error
    });

You can force the wrapper to return rxjs' Observables only by specifying with the asyncType options:

const apiInstance = new PubgApi('<apiKey>', {asyncType: 'observable'});

or

apiInstance.asyncType = 'observable';

then

apiInstance
    .loadMatches(options) // <-- Now returns an Observable
    .subscribe(matches => {
        // success
    }, err => {
        // handle error
    });

This tab highlight the status of each route and function attached to it.

If you want to contribute, open a pull request. Unless the change you are requesting is a hotfix for the latest stable version, you should always pull from develop.

master is the branch where we try to have the latest stable version up to date. Every new version shall be tagged properly with its version, followed by a release. One cannot push to this branch without a code review from the code owners. Use develop instead.

develop is the branch used to iterate the development versions of the wrapper. It should always be based on master. All unstable versions of the wrapper will be tested on this branch.

We will follow the naming convention of major.minor.build.

We are using eslint to check the code syntax, and are using the AirBnB style guide for Javascript. To run the lint :

$ npm run lint

Be sure to clean your code before submitting it.

To build the wrapper, run

$ npm run build

It will generate the file lib/pubg-api.js using babel.

Run

$ npm publish

It will automatically check lint, unit tests and build the lib properly before publishing. The version must be bumped manually.

You can run the unit tests executing npm test. To execute the tests, you must provide an environnment variable PUBG_API_KEY_TEST set with the api key you want to use to run the tests.

$ export PUBG_API_KEY_TEST=<your API key>
$ npm test

The goal of this wrapper is to simplify access to the API, and give a broader spectrum of functions to help developers use the API to its full potential.

This includes developping functions that computes multiple API calls and responses.

• Implement Telemetry
• Implement rxjs observable alternative to promise
• Allow selecting a specific shard for each call, instead of setting a default shard
• Wrap multiple shard functions
