  • You can filter maps by using the gamemode query parameter

Version 2.6.0

Changelog

PR #10

• Added locale optional query parameter on some routes, with translations made available by Blizzard. Default is en-us (same as before the update). Available locales : de-de, en-gb, en-us, es-es, es-mx, fr-fr, it-it, ja-jp, ko-kr, pl-pl, pt-br, ru-ru and zh-tw.
• Updated routes with locale parameter :
  • Get a list of heroes (/heroes?locale=xx-xx)
  • Get hero data (/heroes/ana?locale=xx-xx)
  • Get a list of roles (/roles?locale=xx-xx)
  • Get a list of gamemodes (/gamemodes?locale=xx-xx)

Version 2.5.0

Changelog

PR : #9

• Refactored Cache System to reduce complexity and improve memory usage :
  • Parser Cache is now compressed and is the only cache refreshed in background.
  • API Cache is now only generated on-demand (API call) and not refreshed in background. When expired, the next call will use the refreshed Parser Cache to generate a new API Cache.
• Updated dependencies
• Fixed various minor issues

Version 2.4.0

Changelog

PR : #8

• Added stats summary endpoint (/players/{player_id}/stats/summary) :
  • Get a summary of essential stats you would need to track your progress : games played, time played, winrate, kda, eliminations, assists, deaths, damage, healing.
  • You can retrieve data for a specific hero, but it's also calculated for each role and in general
  • Filter on the gamemode and/or platform you want, or retrieve the sum of the data for every gamemode and/or platform (default behaviour)
• Moved /heroes/roles endpoint to /roles
• Updated documentation structure and various routes descriptions

Version 2.3.4

Changelog

• Various bugfixes
• Updated readme as Blizzard's servers seems stable for two weeks. I'll let the actual values on production (1h of caching) for now.
• Updated tests

Version 2.3.3

Changelog

• PR #7 (fix for #6)

Version 2.3.2

Changelog

• Removed API Cache refresh for players search : it was not relevant as this is a unique request and will most likely not be done on a regular basis, unlike players career stats for example
• Fixed an issue with API Cache refresh system when dealing with 404 errors from Blizzard on existing players who have been retrieved at least one time with the API.

Additional notes

I'm aware there are still some issues from Blizzard, when the API is sending you an HTTP 504 error saying Blizzard didn't respond in 10 seconds. I'll continue to monitor these errors in the following days, and will update caching settings accordingly after studying the frequency and the duration of these server issues from Blizzard.

Version 2.3.1

Changelog

• Fixed an issue with profiles containing invalid time values on Blizzard pages (negative)
