Maniaplanet Web Services: Introduction

[gouxim]

EDIT: Updated documentation available at http://code.google.com/p/maniaplanet-ws ... ingStarted

Hello fellow coders,

The Maniaplanet Web Services is the public API that everyone can use to retrieve various information about the game, the players, the rankings, etc. You can use that API to build all sorts of applications.

We also release an open-source PHP SDK for easy integration in your applications.

If you don't use PHP but you want to use the API directly you're also welcome to hop in. We'll provide information about how the API works (but it's pretty simple anyway).

If you already used the TrackMania Web Services, it will be very easy since the Maniaplanet Web Services works almost the same.

Have fun !

Where to go from here?

• How to get access to the Web Services API?
• Maniaplanet Web Services SDK for PHP
• Return types documentation
• More to come...

One thing that could be really useful for me on maniapark would be a function that returns the planet cost of a given .pak
Don't know if it's planned or not :-p

When the SDK is released, I'll open a topic to gather suggestions of what information you all want/need.

The list of available resources is missing from the developers portal.

Yep we removed that feature because it didn't make much sense. *In the long run*, the solution will be to have a complete API documentation.
