v2 API

Using the API

In order to use the API, the API key must be verified. This is done by passing the API key within the URL, as follows:

example_site.com/api/v2/API_KEY/action

where API_KEY is the API key used, and action is the specified action.

All UUIDs returned by the API are without dashes. The API accepts UUIDs both with and without dashes as parameters.

The API will also return whether there was an error or not, with the error field (either true or false). If true, there will also be a message field containing the error message.

Actions

info GET

No parameters required. Returns in json format:

  • version - string: NamelessMC version, e.g. 2.0.0-pr8
  • version_update - array:
    • update - whether there is an update available, true or false
    • version - the version for the available update (not present if no update available)
    • urgent - whether the update is urgent (ie a security fix), true or false (not present if no update available)
  • language - Default language
  • modules - array: list of enabled modules

Any suggestions?

getAnnouncements GET

Returns all announcements in json. No parameters required. You can optionally add an id GET parameter so that only announcements the user should see will be returned

{
  "announcements" : [
    {
      "content" : "This is an example announcement",
      "display" : ["Home", "Forums"],
      "permissions" : ["Guests", "Standard", "Moderator"]
    },
    {
      "content" : "This message will be displayed on join by the plugin",
      "display" : ["Plugin", "Vote"],
      "permissions" : ["Guests", "Standard", "Moderator"]
    }
  ],
  "error": false
}

register POST

The register action will register a specified user. POST body is a JSON object with

  • username - Forum username
  • uuid - Minecraft UUID (optional. If Minecraft integration is enabled, the website should get the UUID)
  • email - the email address of the user (must be unique)

If there is an issue with the POST request, the API will display an error containing information about the issue. Otherwise, an email will be sent to the user, asking them to visit the website to complete registration.

TODO: Add error code when minecraft integration is enabled and username is not a minecraft username?

The register method response, if email verification is disabled, is as follows:

{
  "message": "Please click on the following link to complete registration:",
  "link": "http://example.com/complete_signup/?c=CODE",
  "error": false
}

The register method response, if email verification is enabled, is as follows:

{
  "message": "Please check your emails to complete registration.",
  "error": false
}

userInfo GET

The userInfo action will retrieve information about a specified user. Possible GET parameters (choose one):

  • id - NamelessMC id
  • username - NamelessMC username
  • uuid - Minecraft UUID (only if Minecraft integration is enabled)
  • discord_id - Discord user ID

The output is a JSON object containing:

  • exists - Whether an account with the provided username or uuid exists. If this is false, all other fields will be missing.
  • username - the Minecraft username of the user
  • displayname - the custom displayname of the user on the website
  • uuid - the Minecraft UUID of the user (without dashes)
  • registered_timestamp - UNIX timestamp of when the user registered
  • last_online_timestamp
  • banned - whether the user is banned from the website or not (boolean)
  • language - User language, e.g. EnglishUK.
  • validated - (boolean)
  • discord_id - Discord ID, not present if user is not linked with discord
  • groups - Json array of group objects (see below for format)

in 2.1, validated will be replaced by

- `verified` - (boolean)

  - `minecraft` - boolean
  - `discord` - boolean
  - ...

If ranks are linked with minecraft ranks or discord roles, those will show up as well.
