In its-gazza/riotR: Riot! API Wrapper for R

require(glue)
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
RIOT_API <- Sys.getenv("RIOT_API")

riotR is a API wrapper for the Riot Games API. Current it supports the League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics end points.

All functions are made to mimic riot's API end point. For example, If I want to get a list of challengers in the OCE region, which has an end point of /lol/league/v4/challengerleagues/by-queue/{queue}, you can access this end point with the following:

challenger <- riotR::league$new(api = "YOUR API", region = "oc1")$league$challenger(queue = "RANKED_SOLO_5x5")

Note all additional parameter required (e.g. queue from example above) will need to be supplied

Install

You can install riotR with the following:

remotes::install_github("its-gazza/riotR")

You need an API from Riot to use this package. You can get it from here

Example

require(riotR)

# Get a list of grandmaster players
tft <- riotR::tft$new(api = RIOT_API, region = "oc1", dry_run = FALSE)
grandmaster <- tft$league$grandmaster()
grandmaster <- httr::content(grandmaster)
grandmaster_tibble <- do.call(rbind, grandmaster$entries)
head(grandmaster_tibble)

Alternatively, you can specify dry_run to TRUE so all return type is the url instead of calling riot's API service

RIOT_API <- "YOUR_RIOT_API"
tft <- riotR::tft$new(api = RIOT_API, region = "oc1", dry_run = TRUE)
print(tft$league$grandmaster())

# Or you can call dry_run in that particular method
tft <- riotR::tft$new(api = RIOT_API, region = "oc1", dry_run = FALSE)
print(tft$league$grandmaster(dry_run = TRUE))
