LCU Connector

Inspired by Pipix's lcu connector
The connector parses the credentials from the lockfile for the API
Make sure you check out the API reference

Features

• Upon initialization you can either provide League of Legends installation directory to the constructor - or leave it empty and just launch league client.
• File checking, timeouts and reasonable console output
• Modern code style (at least I am trying)

How to build

• Load up the project (.sln)
• Build -> Build solution | ctrl+B

Note: if you are getting strange build errors make sure that the project configuration type is set to 'Static library (.lib)'

Usage

• Include everything in your desired project, or straight up create a main method in the same project.
• Initialize
• Get creative with the HTTP requests

Samples

• Init with League home dir as parameter

const LeagueConnector conn{L"D:\\Games\\League of Legends"};
std::cout << conn;

• Init without parameters (will retrieve path from client process)

const LeagueConnector conn;
std::cout << conn;

• How I use it (Aram boost)

int main()
{
    try
    {
        const LeagueConnector conn{L"D:\\Games\\League of Legends"};
        std::cout << conn;

        std::wstring_convert> converter;
        const std::wstring headers{ L"Content-Type: application/json\r\nAccept: application/json\r\nAuthorization: Basic " + converter.from_bytes(conn.getEncodedAuth()) };

        std::wcout << "URL: " << converter.from_bytes(conn.getUrl()) << "\n";

        const auto host{ converter.from_bytes(conn.getHost()) };
        const std::wstring path{ L"/lol-champ-select/v1/team-boost/purchase/" };

        executeHttpsPost(headers.c_str(), host.c_str(), path.c_str(), std::stoi(conn.getPort()));

        std::cout << "Boost applied!\n";
    }
    catch (const std::exception &e)
    {
        std::cerr << e.what();
    }
    return 0;
}
