Requirements

In order to install this API, your system must have:

  • TDB 335.59 or newer
  • PHP 5.5.9 or newer
  • OpenSSL PHP Extension
  • PDO PHP Extension
  • Mbstring PHP Extensionn
  • Tokenizer PHP Extension
  • PHP Sqlite driver (php5-sqlite)

If you are installing it from sources you will also need:

Installing requirements on Ubuntu 16.04

To install the requirements you can type the following command on the terminal:

sudo apt install php-xml php-mbstring php-sqlite3

sudo service apache2 restart

1) [Easy] Get full version archive of latest release

1) [Developer] Install latest version from sources

  • Install all the required software. If you don't have Laravel yet, after you have installed composer, just run:

composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"

  • Clone the TC-JSON-API inside your server web directory:

git clone https://github.com/ShinDarth/TC-JSON-API.git

if you don't have git installed, you can download it directly.

  • Move inside the TC-JSON-API and run composer install:

cd TC-JSON-API

composer install

  • Copy the file .env.example to .env

  • Automatic encryption key generation:

php artisan key:generate

  • Generate key for auth:

php artisan jwt:generate

2) Configure the API

  • Create a new database that will contain all dbc data and import the file achievements.sql (in storage/database/achievements.sql) which contains all the dbc data of achievements.

  • Open .env with a text editor and set properly DB_* parameters, example:

DB_HOST=localhost

DB_WORLD=world

DB_CHARACTERS=characters

DB_AUTH=auth

DB_DBC=dbc

DB_USERNAME=root

DB_PASSWORD=yourpassword

Note: setting all databases is not mandatory, just set the databases that you need.

  • Run the follow command to generate the users table

php artisan migrate

If everything is ok you should be able to correctly open http://localhost/TC-JSON-API/public/index.php.

From now on you can perform HTTP requests to the API at http://localhost/TC-JSON-API/public/index.php/.

Check our documentation to see all possible requests.

Enabling Debug mode

APP_ENV=production

APP_DEBUG=false

Replace with:

APP_ENV=local

APP_DEBUG=true

Now you can see error messages in your browser & logs too.

Be careful! Do not use debug mode on production server.

Developing environment

You really don't need install apache or nginx on your local PC for developing, that easily to use integrated web server. Go to root project directory and run CLI command: php artisan serve

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure that the entire folder TC-JSON-API (including all its files and subfolders) have the proper file permissions.

  • If you get white page or any error, check storage/logs to understand what happens.

  • If for some reasons the API is not able to read from .env file, you have to configure database manually in config/database.php file.
