RiotAPI

A node.js library for fetching League of Legends data from the Riot API.

Riot's API requires a API Key. More information about how to get a Key, Rate Limits and more can be found on their official Site.

Game constants like queue types, maps, game types, game modes and rune slots are explained here.

Getting started

RiotAPI is designed to be simple.

var RiotApi = require('riot-api');
var api = new RiotApi('YOUR_API_KEY_GOES_HERE');

Each Method takes an options object and a callback. The callback is always a json object, either a set of results or a status message if the call was invalid.
