Halo 5 Stats API

Developer Key:

An included empty file developer_key is where you can store the development key so as to not require always having it passed in as an environment variable. To make sure your key does not accidentally get committed, please do the following to prevent git from tracking any changes:

$ git update-index --assume-unchanged developer_key

The development key can also be passed in via an environment variable (defined below). Multiple keys can also be passed, comma separated. So if several people are working on the same project, but not all using their keys at the same time those keys can be leveraged by the group.

Environment Variables:

The environment variable is set for every API request, so a key can be added at runtime by adding it to process.env.

• HALO5_DEV_KEY: The 32 character Halo 5 developer key to perform queries.
• HALO5_QUERY_DELAY: Number of milliseconds to wait between queries. Default is 1200ms.
• HALO5_429_RETRIES: When an HTTP status code of 429 is found the API will automatically retry after a short delay. The default number of retries is 3 before the callback is called with the error. This value can be overridden using this environment variable.
