Hiya lockwooddev!

Do you plan on updating this with the recent drastic changes in Blizzard's API.

Community API has been completely retired.
Game Data API has added several endpoints, for example an Auction House endpoint that is very different than its old Community API endpoint.

Also one thing to note, with the new Auction House API specifically, we need an option to make a head() only request (no content) to the endpoint. The "last modified" date/time of Auction House data is stored there. Currently this package only returns the JSON from the response.

I was tinkering with some of these changes in a branch but I didn't want to waste time if you were also working on some changes!

If you don't plan on continuing this project, please let me know - I would gladly adopt it.

Thanks for all your work on this, I hope this message finds you safe!

Only a few hours after the 2.1.0 release adding the game data api's, Blizzard added additional endpoints to this API.

We’re pleased to announce an update to the World of Warcraft® Game Data APIs. As previously mentioned on the Blizzard API Developer Forum, we’ve been hard at work adding Mythic Keystone Dungeon information to character profiles (a.k.a. Armory) and exposing this data to community developers via the WoW Game Data APIs.

We’re adding data for the seasonal best run for each dungeon, including the seasonal best within qualifying time and seasonal best by Keystone level. We’re also adding new statically and dynamically namespaced documents that describe Mythic Keystone Profile Seasons and Dungeons, plus other related documents including Mythic Keystone Affixes, Character Specializations, and more!

At the moment, get_data_resource accepts only url and region. It would be useful to accept filters as other api calls do to allow for adding things like locale to url's obtained from the game-data API:

race = api.get_playable_race_index('us', 'static-us', locale='en_US')
human = api.get_data_resource(race['races'][0]['key']['href'], 'us', locale='en_US')

It would be nice if the json was parsed into python class models. This would allow for better navigation of the data especially within IDEs. I know this would take a decent amount of work, but it would definitely make it nicer. I would be willing to put some time into making this happen.

Will this be updated in light of changes to API access:

This issue seems to happen randomly/intermittently. I can run my script and it will work fine and then wait a minute before running it again and this error is produced. Any clue? I am on the most recently version.

The relevant code is this:

self._wowapi = WowApi(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET)
self._auction_header = self._wowapi.get_auctions(self._region_prefix, self._realm_slug, locale='en_US')
data_url = self._auction_header['files'][0]['url']
self._auction_data = self._wowapi.get_data_resource(data_url, self._region_prefix)

Sry, but I think blizz needs more developers, or even more with brain. I myself test my code before i publish sth. :D
gamedata.py - not working, nothing is working :D throw your computer in trash, go get a gameboy and play pokemon, but don't dev anymore, THANK YOU

Hi, I've noticed a small bug.

api.py: _get_client_credentials(self, region):

    def _get_client_credentials(self, region):
        path = '/oauth/token'
        data = {'grant_type': 'client_credentials'}
        auth = HTTPBasicAuth(self._client_id, self._client_secret)

        #url = 'https://{0}.battle.net{1}'.format(region, path)
        url = 'https://eu.battle.net{1}'.format(region, path)

As you can see, I intentionally commented out the "region.battle.net" code and replaced it with "eu.battle.net". Why?

Because:

# Code:
data = api.get_spell("tw", namespace="static-tw", id=195072, locale='zh_TW')
# Result:
# 2021-07-05 15:24:50,980 - wowapi - WARNING - Invalid response - 401 for https://tw.battle.net/oauth/token

Code 401 means "Unauthorized". I am not authorized to login to tw.battle.net.

Changing it to login to your own account's region and THEN querying the other regions is the correct way to use the API. And yes, to query data from another region you do need to provide a region to the wowapi.get_spell() etc APIs.

So the oauth login must be your region. The query must be the target region.

Furthermore, their documentation pages say that the data is segmented into region locks. Non-Chinese accounts can query all regions except China. Chinese accounts can only query Chinese regions (zh_CN):

• Described here: https://develop.battle.net/documentation/guides/regionality-and-apis
• List of locales etc: https://develop.battle.net/documentation/world-of-warcraft/guides/localization

Hello, implement get_wowtoken_price. I wrote it in my downloaded api.py, but i think this is crutch.
def get_resource(self, resource, region, type=None, *args, **filters):
resource = resource.format(*args)

    base_url = self.__base_url.format(region)
    if region == 'cn':
        base_url = 'api.blizzard.com.cn'
    if type == 'token':
        base_url +=  '/data'

I'm pulling a wow character profile, which works, but 'fields' seems to do nothing to the output as it still returns all fields. I am following the example you provided:

api.get_character_profile('eu', 'khadgar', 'patchwerk', locale='en_GB', fields='guild,mounts')

Getting the following error following update to the latest release (4.0.0)

Invalid response - 400 for https://eu.battle.net/oauth/token?grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=REDACTED&client_secret=REDACTED

with:

wow_api_client.get_guild_roster(GAME_REGION, f"profile-{GAME_REGION}", GAME_REALM, GAME_GUILD)

How can I get the characters thumbnail, not only the relative url?

I understand I can make docinstall and make docs to view the docs. But I don't feel I should. For one, it seems shady that I have to install something to see how it works. Secondly, I have zero reasons for installing this package as I can't compare it with the normal WoW API. If anyone has the docs, I'd like to view them.

It doesn't look like there is a method for getting guild members e.g. WowApi.get_guild_members()

I am able to make this request manually, however it would be nice to keep all my calls contained to your module if possible.

If I get some time maybe I can submit a PR if that is faster.

Great module btw!

Hi, thank you so much for creating this API wrapper, it's really easy to use!

I noticed that 4.0.0 is broken, but the latest master code works (is able to login). Thanks for fixing it!

However it's still outdated at the pypi package and any other distribution places. :)

ie get_token should be get_token_index etc

Hi, I'm starting to toy around with python-wowapi and testing some stuff. However, I cannot seem to get some endpoints to work. Namely get_characters() (but I would believe others would be affected).

My code:

>>> from wowapi import WowApi
>>> api = WowApi('CLIENT_ID', 'CLIENT_SECRET')
>>> api.get_characters('us')
Fetching access token..
Fetching new token from: https://us.battle.net/oauth/token?grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=CLIENT_ID&client_secret=CLIENT_SECRET

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/godlike/sandbox/python-wowapi/wowapi/mixins/community.py", line 160, in get_characters
    return self.get_resource('wow/user/characters', region, **filters)
  File "/home/godlike/sandbox/python-wowapi/wowapi/api.py", line 161, in get_resource
    return self._handle_request(url, region, params=filters)

    raise WowApiException(msg)

However, other endpoints (public ones maybe?) work just fine:

>>> api.get_character_profile('us', 'kel\'thuzad', 'Stilgan')
Requesting resource: https://us.api.blizzard.com/wow/character/kel'thuzad/Stilgan with parameters: {'access_token': 'ACCESS_TOKEN'}

>>> 

Am I doing something wrong? I didn't see if there was any caveat in the documentation, but after tweaking the logging a little bit, the library does appear to be following the correct Oauth flow.

Just to double check, I am able to use the API via https://develop.battle.net/documentation/api-reference/world-of-warcraft-community-api using my client_id and client_secret.
