world record web api

http://dev.kz-endo.com/wrs

keep in mind it's a work in progress. it currently retrieves all the different routes for a map such as easy/medium/hard (ie. link) with the normal route defined as "normal". hopefully i plan to implement other url routes such as player/lewly, country/russia, time/gt/2m35s, time/lt/30s, etc.

grabbing daily from xj/cc text files.

if it isn't allowed to use the xj records file as part of a way to generate this api please inform me asap and i will take it down. my goal was to allow people to easily grab popular information without having to sift through text.

is this a dumb project/idea? should i quit while i'm ahead? is it amazing? i'd love to hear your thoughts.

i think you are misinterpreting the intention of this project. my goal is to stop people from having to parse the different wr text files and instead simply be able to go to http://dev.kz-endo.com/wrs/{MAPNAME} to retrieve the necessary and most up-to-date wr information. for example, this could be utilized in the kz-endo.com records script when it loads the server records for a map to compare against the wr for that same map.

Nothing extraordinary I would say but it's still great :)

looks good. is it for kz-endo server top15 pages and let people view the info about wrs?
our 97club coder did something like this
records and release page from xj/cc/kzcn/world-surf text files http://top.iwan.pro/records.php
http://top.iwan.pro/records.php?type=XJ&lang=en
and click a player's name to view, like this http://top.iwan.pro/records.php?holder=g-Lp&lang=en
and we are currently working at the different routes stuff for servers, for example , there will be 4 top15 pages for kz_xj_3ways.

added more functionality:

http://dev.kz-endo.com/wrs/time/eq/50
http://dev.kz-endo.com/wrs/time/lt/50
http://dev.kz-endo.com/wrs/time/gt/50

http://dev.kz-endo.com/wrs/player/lewly
http://dev.kz-endo.com/wrs/player/deathclaw

etc.

good shit
