Usage

This library can be used strictly according to the Riot API Documentation like so:

import net.rithms.riot.api.ApiConfig;
import net.rithms.riot.api.RiotApi;
import net.rithms.riot.api.RiotApiException;
import net.rithms.riot.api.endpoints.summoner.dto.Summoner;
import net.rithms.riot.constant.Platform;

/**
 * This example demonstrates using the RiotApi to request summoner information for a given summoner name
 */
public class SummonerExample {

	public static void main(String[] args) throws RiotApiException {
		ApiConfig config = new ApiConfig().setKey("YOUR-API-KEY-HERE");
		RiotApi api = new RiotApi(config);

		Summoner summoner = api.getSummonerByName(Platform.NA, "tryndamere");
		System.out.println("Name: " + summoner.getName());
		System.out.println("Summoner ID: " + summoner.getId());
		System.out.println("Account ID: " + summoner.getAccountId());
		System.out.println("PUUID: " + summoner.getPuuid());
		System.out.println("Summoner Level: " + summoner.getSummonerLevel());
		System.out.println("Profile Icon ID: " + summoner.getProfileIconId());
	}
}

It is important to be aware of your personal rate limit. Any method call from the Riot API is a request that counts towards your rate limit, except requests regarding static data which count toward a method rate limit but not toward your app rate limit. The below code makes 2 requests; one request for a summoner, and another for the match list of a summoner.

import net.rithms.riot.api.ApiConfig;
import net.rithms.riot.api.RiotApi;
import net.rithms.riot.api.RiotApiException;
import net.rithms.riot.api.endpoints.match.dto.MatchList;
import net.rithms.riot.api.endpoints.match.dto.MatchReference;
import net.rithms.riot.api.endpoints.summoner.dto.Summoner;
import net.rithms.riot.constant.Platform;

/**
 * This example demonstrates using the RiotApi to request the match list for a given summoner name and iterating over the match list
 */
public class MatchListExample {

	public static void main(String[] args) throws RiotApiException {
		ApiConfig config = new ApiConfig().setKey("YOUR-API-KEY-HERE");
		RiotApi api = new RiotApi(config);

		// First we need to request the summoner because we will need it's account ID
		Summoner summoner = api.getSummonerByName(Platform.NA, "tryndamere");

		// Then we can use the account ID to request the summoner's match list
		MatchList matchList = api.getMatchListByAccountId(Platform.NA, summoner.getAccountId());

		System.out.println("Total Games in requested match list: " + matchList.getTotalGames());

		// We can now iterate over the match list to access the data
		if (matchList.getMatches() != null) {
			for (MatchReference match : matchList.getMatches()) {
				System.out.println("GameID: " + match.getGameId());
			}
		}
	}
}
