Do you plan on updating this API for Tears of the Kingdom

[arjunkahlon]

I've really enjoyed using this API to create my own personal project. I envision the new game having a variety of new items, creatures, monsters. If Nintendo does opt to continue the Compendium, will your team continue to update this API with the new data?

This is a good question! I think we will have both games supported. You will probably be able to configure which game you're asking about with a parameter, for example:

https://botw-compendium.herokuapp.com/api/v2/entry/bokoblin?game=2 // 2 means the sequel, 1 means the original

The API will likely point to the original game by default.

I'm excited about the sequel!

Hi @gadhagod, any news? It would be a good idea.

[gadhagod]

Thanks for reminding me! About to start working on it. Will try to get the new features out ASAP.

Edit: see #40.

@arjunkahlon @erikmon it's here! Check out the new docs to see how to access Tears of the Kingdom entries. I deployed the new features just a few hours ago so please let me know if you come across any issues.

TOTK images and regions aren't ready yet; they are still being tested.

[gadhagod]

Glad I could help guys!

Any time estimate of when the regions will be released? And are you looking for any contributions? I'd be willing to help in any matter regarding this. I see you just released the TOTK entries, so my apologies for arrogance. I don't want to make it seem like I'm rushing you. Just curious.

[gadhagod]

Thanks for your message, @JacobDevelopment. I am pretty busy this summer due to my internship, so it may be a few weeks before regions can be released. However, I'm glad to hear that you're open to contributing. The local hosting instructions are here. Since there is no real contributing guide or anything, I can walk you through the codebase if you're open to communicating directly with me at good.aarav@gmail.com or "gadhagod" on Discord.

[jkingster]

No problem, I'll look to getting this setup and contact you via discord as soon as I can.

Was looking for a BOTW api that hopefully had updates with TOTK content as well. Glad I found this!
