Upgrading

From 0.7 to 0.8#

  • New wowForever client for WoW: Forever (see the Forever notes).
  • Retail Item.preview_item.stats, requirements and durability are optional: the API omits them for items without them, such as companion pets.
  • 0.8.3: Item.preview_item.binding and requirements.level are optional, because recipe items have neither.

From 0.6 to 0.7#

  • More response fields that only some characters, players or brackets have are now optional. Among them: active_spec, guild_crest, current_mythic_rating, PvpSeasons.current_season, PvpSeasonLeaderboard.entries (omitted for empty brackets), StarCraft II clanName/clanTag, and the Diablo III hero followers, legendaryPowers and seasonCreated.

From 0.5 to 0.6#

  • A locale is always sent: when locale is not set, the region's main locale is used. Localized fields are therefore always strings, and the types say so. Before, omitting locale returned an object with every locale.
  • Response types were checked against live responses and corrected. Fields that only some characters have are now optional.
  • The Classic clients return Classic* types (e.g. ClassicCharacterProfile, from /wow-classic) where fields that only Retail returns are optional. The Retail types keep those fields required.
  • hearthstone.metadata(type) is typed per type: metadata("sets") returns MetadataSet[].

From 0.4 to 0.5#

  • wowClassic now targets Classic progression. For Classic Era realms, use wowClassicEra.
  • mythicRaidLeaderboard(raid, faction) takes a raid slug and "alliance" or "horde", e.g. ("uldir", "alliance").
  • pvpSeasonLeaderboard(seasonId, bracket) takes a bracket name, e.g. "3v3" or "shuffle-overall".
  • wow, hearthstone and the other namespaces are plain objects. Import types from the game entry points (see Types and links).
  • Some types were renamed to remove duplicates. For example, entries of the character collections are now CollectedMount, CollectedPet, CollectedToy and CollectedHeirloom.
