  • Special params:

    • skip - skips a certain number of results
    • limit - limits the search; value is capped between 1 and 50

  • strings/numbers are parsed normally, arrays are like so

    • GET /search?classes=["Knight"] - this will grab every object with a classes field, and one that contains a Knight value inside of it.

  • important fields you should know about:

    • data_type: the data type (i.e. race/class/discipline/power)

• GET /graphql - we have graphql support!

  • Schemas are in /src/data/graphql
  • graphiql is enabled so you can have fun exploring!

To setup:

Install node v6+, start up a rethinkdb server with default ports/etc.

npm install the project.

npm run load-crowfall-data downloads and updates the database with new data from git.

To run:

npm start or npm run tsc && node dist/api.js.

Make sure to clear the dist folder if you want to remove old files (important for building for release!).
