PS2 Census Client

About

The PS2 Census Client is a tool to simplify the interaction with the Planetside 2 Census API. Note that it is still in a Alpha state and that things might change in the future.

Requirements

• Node.js v12+;
• DBG Census API Service ID.

Installation

npm install ps2census

For better performance it is recommended to install bufferutil and utf-8-validate, though this is optional. The --save-optional flag can be used to install them as optionalDependencies.

Getting started

const { Client } = require('ps2census');

const subscriptions = [{
    worlds: ['10'],
    eventNames: ['MetagameEvent']
}];

const client = new Client('ServiceID', {
        streamManagerConfig: {
            subscriptions
        },
    });

client.on('ps2Event', (event) => {
    // Handle the event, for more information see http://census.daybreakgames.com/#websocket-details
});
// or
client.on('facilityControl', (event) => {}); // Note that the event always starts with a lower case letter

client.on('subscribed', (subscription) => {}); // Notification of a subscription made by the event stream
client.on('duplicate', (event) => {}); // When a duplicate event has been received
client.on('ready', () => {}); // Client is ready
client.on('reconnecting', () => {}); // Client is reconnecting
client.on('disconnected', () => {}); // Client got disconnected
client.on('error', (error) => {}); // Error
client.on('warn', (error) => {}); // Error, when receiving a corrupt message

client.watch();

// To terminate the client
client.destroy();
