Service to provide capability to overcome the static IP limitation of the supercell games API.
PROOF OF CONCEPT: https://statscell.herokuapp.com
This is a service which is developed with the intention to remove the static IP limitation over the supercell games official API (clash of clans).
Currently the above mentioned game API requires to have a static IP while generating a key. But many people do not happen to have that, thus this service is developed to overcome the requirement of static IP.
NOTE: This service is working for the above mentioned games, and is tested properly as well. You can have a look at the proof of concept linked at the top of the page.
By default the API token fetching is disabled i.e. there is nothing working by default apart from the base route response. Keeping in mind that not everyone use every API, all the games API are disabled by default. You can selectively enable the ones you need by setting the respective game value true in config.js.
After setting the value to true, all the official API routes be available for you as well.
This service simply logins to the developer portal at run time and generate a new key for the current IP of your device or host. All the API requests are made using the generated token now. The Service also checks if there is any key for the current host and also deletes old keys to not exceede the limit of keys for your developer account.
- Currently the API has all the API routes covered for
clash of clans,clash royaleandbrawl stars - One can easily customize (add, delete, modify) API routes and their responses simply by visiting the
routesfolder in the the respective game folder (i.e. clash, royale or brawl) - One can setup custom authorization, save the responses to DB or anything as per the needs
Thinking about a free platform to use this service, one can already think of Heroku, thus there is a heroku branch with things managed for the heroku Branch.
Also This article contains a simple walkthrough to help you host this service over heroku securely.
