Usage

First you need an API key so head to the developer portal and register an application.

var battle = require('battle');

// create a new client with a default region
var client = battle.createClient({
    apiKey: '...',
    region: 'eu'
});

// load an item
client.item({ id: 72095 }, function (err, item) {
    console.log(item);
});

// load a character from a US realm
client.character({
    region: 'us',
    realm: 'nesingwary',
    name: 'havøk',
    fields: 'stats'
}, function (err, char) {
    console.log(char);
});

// also nice errors
client.item({ id: 99999999 }, function (err, item) {
    console.log(err instanceof battle.APIError) // true
    console.log(err.statusCode) // 404
    console.log(err.message)    // "unable to get item information."
    console.log(err.body)       // json body
});

API

`battle.createClient(options)`

Options:

options.apiKey - required
[options.region] - optional, defaults to us. Supports: us, eu, kr, tw, ch

Returns: an instance of battle.Client

`client.endpoint(params, callback)`

The client supports all endpoints found on Blizzard's API docs.

Sending a request to the character endpoint:

client.character({
    region: 'us',            // optional param
    realm: 'nesingwary',     // required param
    name: 'havøk',           // required param
    fields: 'stats'          // optional param
}, function (err, data) {
    // do your thing
})

Note: Passing in params.region will override the client's default region.
Note: all request parameters that are not required to build the url (such as fields in the example above) will be sent to the API as query string parameters.
