Introduction

The armory-API is a modified version of the armorypy @ http://code.google.com/p/armorypy/.

The additional info you can get from it:

• Primary & secondary spec with name and icon (to build a icon link with wowhead or wow-europe)
• Major and minor glyphs for the active spec with name, type and effect
• 2v2, 3v3 and 5v5 arenateams with name, rating and ranking
• Secondary professions (cooking, fishing etc.) with name and value
• Prefix titles, such as Private, Twilight Vanquisher etc.

Usage

To use the API, just do an import like this

::

>>> from armory_api import Armory

Mock Armory.getCharacter

Returns a dictionary similar to the dictionary we would get from the API, so that this test can be used while offline

::

>>> from test_armory import mocked_getCharacter

Mocking the function

::

>>> Armory.getCharacter = mocked_getCharacter

First create an instance of the Armory object

::

>>> armory = Armory()

To get the character info, use getCharacter(name, realm, zone, language) currently only "de" and "en" are supported

::

>>> raider = armory.getCharacter("Kutschurft","Azshara","EU", "en")

Now you can get the info with get()

::

>>> name = raider.get("name")
>>> name == "Kutschurft"
True

>>> server = raider.get("server")
>>> server == "Azshara"
True

>>> zone = raider.get("zone")
>>> zone == "EU"
True
