Important

R6API.js won't be maintained in foreseeable future. The reasons are simple — I've pretty much lost the interest in players statistics which is core of this package and working with Ubisoft APIs is pain in an ass most of the time (as of launch of Heavy Mettle players stats endpoint is broken again). For most up to date version see next branch. A lot of things, such as assets and constants from this package was moved to my new package — R6Data

R6API.js

Installation

$ yarn add r6api.js
# OR
$ npm install r6api.js

Initialization

To setup this package, you need to provide Ubisoft account credentials (email and password). Credentials should be handled as you would handle any other secure value, it is recommended to use dotenv package to load environment variables from a .env.

Do not use your real Ubisoft account. It is highly recommended to create a new account for using this package. Visit account.ubisoft.com/login to create new account.

Example

require('dotenv').config();
const R6API = require('r6api.js').default;

// // Or ES6 way
// import * as dotenv from 'dotenv';
// dotenv.config();
// import R6API from 'r6api.js';

const { UBI_EMAIL: email = '', UBI_PASSWORD: password = '' } = process.env;
const r6api = new R6API({ email, password });

// export default async () => { // ES6
exports.default = async () => {
  const username = 'Daniel.Nt';
  const platform = 'uplay';

  const { 0: player } = await r6api.findByUsername(platform, username);
  if (!player) return 'Player not found';

  const { 0: stats } = await r6api.getStats(platform, player.id);
  if (!stats) return 'Stats not found';
  const {
    pvp: { general }
  } = stats;

  return `${player.username} has played ${general.matches} matches.`;
};
Daniel.Nt has played 5648 matches.

custom

Useful if you're familiar with Rainbow Six Siege's API; this method will make a request to a custom URL you would provide with the token in the header.

(url: string, params: any) => Promise<T>

await r6api.custom(
  utils.URLS.STATS(
    'uplay',
    ['0b95544b-0228-49a7-b338-6d15cfbc3d6a'],

TypeScript integrations

This package is developed in TypeScript, and the typings are shipped along with the built package: that means that your editor should automatically detect them and give you the static type info. For a full list of supporting IDEs, please see here.

If you're coding in TypeScript you can also import the typings and use the type-checking functions provided in the utils.

import R6API, { utils, typings, constants } from 'r6api.js';

const yourVar = 'r4-c'; // any

if (utils.isWeaponName(yourVar)) {
  // Now your var has the WeaponName type
}

const platform = constants.PLATFORMS as typings.Platform[];
