There was py-ryzom-api for python, but its abandoned and no source in github anymore.

I have not heard of anyone doing it in C.

Thanks Karu.

In Python, requesting the xml from the server would be trivial with the "requests" library, then there are xml/html parsing libraries like BeautifulSoup + lxml.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? :)

Right, I am not a py programmer so C or assembler would do better for me ;),... I would even take Fortran or Pascal.

I am trying to get all items and details in inventory for a toon, then massage it into something magical.

I have been able to get it using this:

import sys

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET

import requests

RYZ_API_ENDPOINT = "http://api.ryzom.com/character.php"

ryz_api_key = "abracadabraverylongcodewithnumbersandlettersstuff"

RYZ_PARAMS = {'apikey': ryz_api_key}

r = requests.get(url = RYZ_API_ENDPOINT, params = RYZ_PARAMS)

print(r.status_code)

print(r.status_code == requests.codes.ok)

print(r.headers['content-type'])

print(r.encoding)

print(r.url)

ryz_toon = ET.parse(r.text)

for elem in ryz_toon.iter():

 print ("%s: '%s'\n\r", elem.tag, elem.text)

Just wondered if there is a better, or pre-made set of libs.

Ultimately, not much different in C either.  there are libraries to get a HTTP/S responses back, and also XML parsers.

I still prefer bs4, maybe it's because it was my first contact with html/xml parsers in Python. Also, it makes it easy to navigate the xml tree quite easily.

Here's a crude example that will print out all of a character's fames:

import sys
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = "http://api.ryzom.com/character.php?apikey=xxxxxxxxxx"
r = requests.get(url)
data = r.text

soup = BeautifulSoup(data, 'xml')

#find all items
items = soup.find("fame").find_all()

for item in items:
 print(item.name+" "+item.text+"\n")

But yes, ultimately not much different than your example.
