Code for accessing Fortnite API data and displaying it on a Sense HAT. Full tutorial in MagPi #78. https://raspberyypi.org/mappi
Import score.json into Node-RED to create the flow. By default it gets my test account, but you can change it to anything you wish.
There's also fortnighttickerplus.py which shows how to do the same with Python and adds a few more features.
Assuming you have git and pip installed (sudo apt install git python-pip):
$ cd
$ git clone https://github.com/mrpjevans/fortniteticker.git
$ sudo apt install sense-hat
$ pip install requests
$ cd ~/fortniteticker
$ python3 fortnighttickerplus.py
If you have a Sense HAT installed, moving the joystick will display the scores of four people (or different platforms), one for each direction. Pressing the joystick down will get the current server status.
You can edit the 'users' dictionary that appears early in the code make different directions access different usernames and/or platforms.
Many thanks to the good people of https://fortniteapi.com for their awesome service.
