getRegionByName about riot-api-java HOT 7 CLOSED

Yes, that method is new in 4.0. Version 4.0 is currently an alpha version, meaning it's not recommended to use this in a productive environment. (Even though I do. Living on the edge, heh.)

For now, you can manually create a method like that:

    public static Region getRegionByName(String name) {
        for (Region region : Region.values()) {
            if (region.getName().equals(name.toLowerCase())) {
                return region;
            }
        }
        return null;
    }

To use the latest version of the master branch, you can also fork/download this repository.

Sure, you forgot to erase the exception, but yes, I will just add the code and wait for the release.

What are you using the api for ?

from riot-api-java.

Whoops, removed the throws statement.

I'm the founder and CEO of LoLSkill.net - some of our backend applications run in Java and use this API wrapper.

Wow that's a good website. Are those adds enough to keep it up ?

What kind of key do you have to execute such a big amount of "querys" ?

from riot-api-java.

Yep, the current page view numbers are high enough to monetize the project and earn a living with advertising. Infact, LoLSkill is my 'main' full-time job since more than a year now. (Besides that I'm translating Steam and games to German for Valve)

LoLSkill has an extended api key, not using the default limits.

@Linnun That's amazing man, congrats on that. I am currently living in Germany, no ida of German though.
How did you get to translate for Valve ? Do you have any "language license" or just a native speaker ? I would do it for Spanish too ! haha
By the way, how did you get the extended api key ? And how many visitors do you have per month in the website ? How many are neccesary to earn (let's say) 2000 € (or $) ?

from riot-api-java.

I'm born and raised in Germany, so I'm a native speaker.

You can request an extended api key from Riot, if your api is regularly hitting the limits and you have a huge user base to serve.
The amount of page views needed to acquite a given goal depends on many factory. It's probably best to ask your advertising partner about the details.
