Notes and current limitations of the HTTP API

[dyc3]

Notes

• Battle IDs can't be reused.
• Battle IDs are provided by the server.

Endpoints

• All currently undocumented.
• All subject to change without notice.

This function contains all the paths:

pokemonbattlelib/http/api.go

Lines 13 to 24 in cf6f896

	func buildRouter() *http.ServeMux {
	mux := http.NewServeMux()
	mux.HandleFunc("/pokedex/list/moves", HandleListMoves)
	mux.HandleFunc("/pokedex/generate", HandleGeneratePokemon)
	mux.HandleFunc("/battle/new", HandleCreateBattle)
	mux.HandleFunc("/battle/simulate", HandleBattleSimulate)
	mux.HandleFunc("/battle/context", HandleBattleContext)
	mux.HandleFunc("/battle/act", HandleBattleAct)
	mux.HandleFunc("/agent/dumb", HandleDumbAgent)
	return mux
	}

Limitations

• Battles cannot be removed from the battle server's memory, ever. Meaning that there is no way to delete a battle.
• The current way that queuing turns works will not work for double battles.
• The simulate endpoint will not respond if the battle is waiting for turns to be queued.
• Transactions do not have a field to indicate their type.
