is there a discord server for chatting?

[PhlexPlexico]

Nope, I'd much prefer to keep this project just on GitHub since it's easier to consolidate all problems into one place, instead of having to look in different areas, sorry!

Hi @PhlexPlexico,

Do you have any public documentation on how get5-webapi and G5-API are working together?
Just so I will be able understand what G5-API are doing?

Because I want to add an extra layer between a frontend and G5-API.

Hey!

Well, I don't have any easy-to-consume documentation... But everything that's under the legacy portion of G5API is the calls that are received from the plugin on the CSGO server. Within the get5 plugin, there are a handful of public forwards that can be used, such as Get5_OnSeriesResult that would call the /match/:matchid/finish call. So everything that the API consumes from the game server is just located under there, which requires (confusingly enough) an API key that the system generates per match.

If you'd like, I could go into more detail once I have a bit more free time explaining what each of the calls do, but from the API Docs and reading the source, I think it should (hopefully!) be self explanatory!

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick introduction! That helped a lot, I will take a look on the legacy part.
You are doing an awesome work!
