Hello Campers!
I am totally stuck at TwitchTv Project. . Since yesterday, I am just looking at the API docs and I wasn’t able to gain any insight about how to use it. The project says that I have to use the harcoded JSON to display the data. But I don’t know what to display (i.e. relevant info). It would be really great if someone would point me to an appropriate and updated Resource/ Documentation/ Article for the same. If there’s some other API that I could use in place of TwitchTv one, that’d work too.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Priyank Kharat.
Read this bit:
Combine this knowledge with instruction #9:
UPDATE: Due to a change in conditions on API usage explained here Twitch.tv now requires an API key, but we’ve built a workaround. Use https://wind-bow.glitch.me/twitch-api instead of twitch’s API base URL (i.e. https://api.twitch.tv/kraken ) and you’ll still be able to get account information, without needing to sign up for an API key.
The answers you seek are in the links I provided. From the first:
Here’s an example call to fetch Free Code Camp’s Twitch channel data:
$.getJSON(‘https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/freecodecamp?callback=?’, function(data) {
console.log(data);
});
From the second:
Use https://wind-bow.glitch.me/twitch-api instead of twitch’s API base URL (i.e. https://api.twitch.tv/kraken )
Thank you so much!!
Finally Completed the project. Here’s the Project Link.
Your advice was a big help!
