This repository is the home of the configuration files that power the !libs command for BottyMcBotFace on the Riot Games API Developer Community (https://discord.gg/riotgamesdevrel)

The aim of this repository is to provide a semi-automated, centralized way for 3rd Party Library Creators to manage the exposure of their libraries to other 3rd Party Developers.

The libraries directory contains language-specific subdirectories. Within these sub-directories are JSON files that contain library configurations.

The filename is the name of the repository, lowercased and with all non-alphanumeric characters removed.. If the filename already exists (aka there's another library with the same name), simply add a number to the end of your filename (e.g. lolfakejavalib1.json).

For a Java library called LoL-Fake-Java-Lib, it's configuration would live at libraries/java/lolfakejavalib.json

Each JSON file should consist of a single RepoObject JSON object with the following properties:

• owner [string] - The GitHub account that owns the repository
• repo [string] - The name of the repository
• description [string] (Optional) - A description of the library. If omitted, the repository description will be used instead
• language [string] - The programming language of the library
• links [array] - An array of RepoLink objects
• metadata [object] - An object containing metadata on the library.
• tags [array] - An array of strings indicating which features are supported by the library. This array can contain any tags, but only the following are official:
  • v4 - Include if the library supports v4 of the Riot Games API. BottyMcBotFace will only show libraries that have the v4 tag in all channels that don't have other tags (see below)
  • v5 - Include if the library supports v5 of the Riot Games API. You should still include the v4 tag
  • lol - Include if the library supports the LoL APIs. However, only libraries with the tag v4 will show up in #lol-dev
  • lcu - Include if the library supports the LCU API. Libraries with this tag will show up in #lcu-api
  • ingame - Include if the library supports the Ingame API. Libraries with this tag will show up in #ingame-api
  • replay - Include if the library supports the Replay API
  • tft - Include if the library supports the TFT APIs. Libraries with this tag will show up in #tft-dev
  • lor - Include if the library supports the LoR APIs. Libraries with this tag will show up in #lor-dev
  • val - Include if the library supports the Valorant APIs. Libraries with this tag will show up in #val-dev
  • rso - Include if the library supports RSO. Libraries with this tag will show up in #rso-dev
  • rate-limiting - Include if the library natively handles rate limiting

• name [string] - The display name of the link
• url [string] - The URL of the link

Awesome! Simply create a Pull Request that adds a file with your library's configuration to the appropriate folder (if your language's folder isn't there, feel free to create it!). Once we verify that everything is correct, we'll merge it in and you're all set!

It's simple to fix! Simply create a Pull Request that updates the configuration file for your library. Once we verify that everything is correct, we'll merge it in and you're all set!

For any specific issues / feature requests, you can create a Github Issue or reach out to WxWatch on the Riot API Community Discord

• With the upcoming deprecation of pre-v3 APIs, a way for libraries to be marked as supporting v3 . Done!
• Remove the language property and have the updater rely on the directory name to know the language.
• A more robust way to show what APIs a library supports
• A way for libraries to show any additional features it may have (rate limiter, etc.)
• Support for libraries not hosted on Github
