This API wrapper was developed for developers to help simplify retrieving Fortnite user statistics. This wrapper is easy to install, as well as easy to use.
Installing the wrapper is easy; just install it as a zip file and then place the extracted folder into your code repository/folder. The
require
line of code.
Before using this wrapper, it is required that all three of these node-modules are both called and installed; the url
, http
, as well as the request
modules are required (the request
module is the only one that requires an npm
install.)
Once again, this wrapper was developed to be simple to use, so getting it working should not be too much of a hassle. After making sure that all required node-modules are installed, we can call the wrapper and also use it's features.
/* This is the file that will use the wrapper. The 'statistics' folder of
the wrapper should be in the same directory as this code file!
*/
var fortnite = require("./statistics/fortnite.js");
/* This line of code logs the number of kills of a player depending
on the gamemode, platform etc. PC is the only supported platform
(as of 3/14/2018.) Since this wrapper uses the API from
https://fortnite.y3n.co/, you must get an API-Key from their bot.
