README

This is a simple package providing you with all the tools to quickstart development on that Minecraft site you've been craving. Retrieve UUIDs based on usernames or the other way around with a simple and human-readable API.

Install

Via composer:

$ composer require sven/minecraft-php

If you're using the Laravel framework, you can add the MinecraftServiceProvider to your providers array:

// config/app.php
'providers' => [
    ...
    Sven\Minecraft\MinecraftServiceProvider::class,
    ...
];

You may also add the Minecraft facade to the aliases array to use the facade:

// config/app.php
'aliases' => [
    ...
    'Minecraft' => Sven\Minecraft\Facades\Minecraft::class,
    ...
];

Usage

$minecraft = new Sven\Minecraft\Minecraft;

// Build up the user object from a given username.
$minecraft->fromName($username);

// Supply an optional UNIX timestamp to get the user object of the player who
// owned that username at the time.
$minecraft->fromName($username, time() - (365 * 24 * 60 * 60));

// Build up the user object from a given UUID.
$minecraft->fromUuid($uuid);

If you specified the alias in config/app.php, you can use the facade:

Minecraft::fromName($username);

Minecraft::fromUuid($uuid);

This always returns you the same object (Sven\Minecraft\Minecraft). You may use the get() and only($property) methods on it to retrieve the data:

$minecraft = new Minecraft;
$user = $minecraft->fromName('jeb_');

$user->get()->name;  // jeb_
$user->get()->uuid;  // 853c80ef3c3749fdaa49938b674adae6

$user->only('name'); // jeb_
$user->only('uuid'); // 853c80ef3c3749fdaa49938b674adae6

If you want more flexibility, the ->get() method returns a JSON object of data for your user:

$user->get(); // {"name": "jeb_", "uuid": "853c80ef3c3749fdaa49938b674adae6"}

Rate limiting

Mojang has some rate limiting in place so you are expected to cache the results. You may send 1 request per minute to the same resource, and you may request as many unique resources as you'd like. Keep in mind Mojang might change this at any time.
