A small Node.js library to work with Riot's League of Legend's API.
Simple example using promises and callbacks
const_kayn=require('kayn')constKayn=_kayn.KaynconstREGIONS=_kayn.REGIONSconstkayn=Kayn(/* process.env.RIOT_LOL_API_KEY */)(/* optional config */)kayn.Summoner.by.name('Contractz').region(REGIONS.NORTH_AMERICA)// same as 'na'.callback(function(unhandledError,summoner){kayn.Matchlist.by.accountID(summoner.accountId)/* Note that region falls back to default if unused. */.query({season:11,queue:[420,440],}).then(function(matchlist){console.log('actual matches:',matchlist.matches)console.log('total number of games:',matchlist.totalGames)}).catch(console.error)})
Same example (as the above) using async/await, destructuring, and template strings
import{Kayn,REGIONS}from'kayn'constkayn=Kayn(/* process.env.RIOT_LOL_API_KEY */)(/* optional config */)constmain=async()=>{const{ accountId}=awaitkayn.Summoner.by.name('Contractz')// ^ default region is used, which is `na` unless specified in configconst{ matches, totalGames}=awaitkayn.Matchlist.by.accountID(accountId).query({season:11,champion:67}).region(REGIONS.NORTH_AMERICA)console.log('actual matches:',matches)console.log(`total number of games:${totalGames}`)}main()
Example of getting match information from 100 matches at once
constgetChampionIdFromMatch=(match,accountId)=>{for(letiinmatch.participantIdentities){if(match.participantIdentities[i].player.currentAccountId===accountId){returnmatch.participants[parseInt(i)].championId}}}constmain=asynckayn=>{const{ accountId}=awaitkayn.SummonerV4.by.name('Contractz')constrankGameIds=(awaitkayn.MatchlistV4.by.accountID(accountId).query({queue:420})).matches.map(el=>el.gameId)constchampionIds=awaitPromise.all(rankGameIds.map(asyncgameId=>{constmatchDetail=awaitkayn.MatchV4.get(gameId).region('na')returngetChampionIdFromMatch(matchDetail,accountId)}),)console.log(championIds.slice(0,5),championIds.length)}
Example of getting DDragon information of banned champions in a game
constmain=async(kayn)=>{constmatch=awaitkayn.Match.get(2877485196)constbans=match.teams.map(m=>m.bans).reduce((t,c)=>t.concat(c),[])constids=bans.map(b=>b.championId)constddragonChampions=awaitkayn.DDragon.Champion.listDataByIdWithParentAsId()constchampions=ids.map(id=>ddragonChampions.data[id])console.log(champions)}

Handled byColorfulstan's wonderfulriot-ratelimiter.
SeeRATELIMITING.md.
Currently supports a basic JS cache (for simple scripts), node-lru-cache, and Redis.
Works immediately upon installation.
As of v0.8.0, full DTO's are provided thanks toMingweiSamuel'sauto-updated Swagger JSON.
Check outENDPOINTS.md to see kayn's methods, as well as the endpoints covered.
The auto-generated ESDoc documentation can be foundhere.
The minimum requiredNode.js version is v7.6.0 for native async/await support (there's only a mere line in the codebase, though).
npm i --save kayn
yarn add kayn
Quick Setup withDefault Config
const{ Kayn,REGIONS}=require('kayn')constkayn=Kayn('RGAPI-my-api-key')(/*{ region: REGIONS.NORTH_AMERICA, apiURLPrefix: 'https://%s.api.riotgames.com', locale: 'en_US', debugOptions: { isEnabled: true, showKey: false, }, requestOptions: { shouldRetry: true, numberOfRetriesBeforeAbort: 3, delayBeforeRetry: 1000, burst: false, shouldExitOn403: false, }, cacheOptions: { cache: null, timeToLives: { useDefault: false, byGroup: {}, byMethod: {}, }, },}*/)
Note: Any config passed in is deeply merged with the default config.
constkayn=Kayn(/* process.env.RIOT_LOL_API_KEY */)(myConfig)
Although it is possible to manually pass in the API key, it is preferable to store the key in a secret file (which should not be committed).
This allowskayn
to be constructed like in the above code.
# filename: .envRIOT_LOL_API_KEY=RGAPI-my-api-key
kayn.Summoner.by.name('Contractz').callback(function(err,summoner){// do something})
kayn.Summoner.by.name('Contractz').then(summoner=>doSomething(summoner)).then(console.log).catch(error=>console.error(error))
constmain=async()=>{constctz=awaitkayn.Summoner.by.name('Contractz')}
This forces a request to target a specific region instead of the default region set inkayn
's config. If.region()
is not used,kayn
will use the default region to make requests.
kayn.Summoner.by.name('hide on bush').region(REGIONS.KOREA).callback(function(error,summoner){doSomething(summoner)})
There is another utility method in case if you want to avoid handling exceptions caused by.region()
. This method simply catches.region()
's exception, and so it will fall back to the default region as well.
kayn.Summoner.by.name('hide on bush').regionNoThrow(null)// No error thrown. Uses default region.kayn.Summoner.by.name('hide on bush').regionNoThrow(3)// Same as above.kayn.Summoner.by.name('hide on bush').regionNoThrow('kr524')// Same as above.
You can pass in strings, numbers, or arrays as values. Just pass in whatever Riot expects. :)
kayn.Matchlist.by.accountID(3440481).region(REGIONS.KOREA).query({season:9,queue:[420,440],}).callback(function(err,matchlist){console.log(matchlist.matches.length)})
Errors as of v0.8.7 return the following error object:
{statusCode:42,// some random numberurl:'',// the debug URL that is used in logging as wellerror:{}// the rest of the error object}
This forces a request to target a specific version and is no longer mandatory as ofv0.8.22
.
kayn.DDragon.Champion.list().version('8.15.1')/* Explicit */.callback(function(error,champions){console.log(champions)})// Let's say the config region is North America and that the latest version// for the champion endpoint in NA is 8.24.1kayn.DDragon.Champion.list()// Implicitly targets 8.24.1.callback(function(error,champions){console.log(champions)})// Same thing as above, but gets the versions for a different region from the configuration.kayn.DDragon.Champion.list().region('br').callback(function(error,champions){console.log(champions)})
Whenever you make a request that does not have a version passed in,kayn
will automatically grab all the JSON versions associated with your default region or through theregion()
method.
If you do not have caching enabled, note that each request with no version passed will always send an additional request for grabbing the version. Otherwise, it follows standard caching.
// Calls the Realm list endpoint to get the version for North America's champion data. It then gets the champions.kaynWithNoCache.DDragon.Champion.list()// Gets versions for 'kr' instead of default region.kaynWithNoCache.DDragon.Champion.list().region('kr')
// Calls Kayn.Realm.list(), caches it, and then gets the version for North America's champion data. It then gets the champions.kaynWithCache.DDragon.Champion.list()// Retrieves the cached version (because we already called the realm endpoint under the hood) for North America's champion data and then gets the champions.kaynWithCache.DDragon.Champion.list()
This is only for /cdn/data//.json-esque requests. It is a helper method that allowskayn
to not force the user to have to pass in a version.
kayn.DDragon.Champion.list().region('kr').locale('ko_KR')
This forces a request to target a specific locale instead of the default locale set inkayn
's config. If.locale()
is not used,kayn
will use the default locale to make requests.
kayn.DDragon.Champion.list().version('8.15.1').locale('sg_SG').callback(function(error,champions){console.log(champions)})kayn.DDragon.Champion.list().version('8.15.1')/* Locale not specified. Uses default locale, which is 'en_US' in the config and is adjustable. */.callback(function(error,champions){console.log(champions)})
This example firstly hits theRealm
endpoint, which grabs a list of versions where each version corresponds with some type of DDragon endpoint (Champion
,Item
, etc). I then grab the version associated with theChampion
endpoint to get the latest static champion list for the NA region. Note thatkayn.DDragon.Realm.list
uses the default region or takes in a region specified, which is why I am able to avoid passing in extra arguments.
constmain=async()=>{constkayn=Kayn('RGAPI-my-api-key')({region:REGIONS.NORTH_AMERICA,locale:'en_US',debugOptions:{isEnabled:true,showKey:false,},requestOptions:{},// Doesn't apply to DDragon requestscacheOptions:{cache:newLRUCache({max:5000}),timeToLives:{useDefault:true,// Cache DDragon by default!},},})/* kayn.DDragon.Realm.list('na') => { "n": { "item": "8.17.1", "rune": "7.23.1", "mastery": "7.23.1", "summoner": "8.17.1", "champion": "8.17.1", "profileicon": "8.17.1", "map": "8.17.1", "language": "8.17.1", "sticker": "8.17.1" }, "v": "8.17.1", "l": "en_US", "cdn": "https://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn", "dd": "8.17.1", "lg": "8.17.1", "css": "8.17.1", "profileiconmax": 28, "store": null } */// Same as `const championVersion = data.n.champion`.const{n:{champion:championVersion}}=awaitkayn.DDragon.Realm.list(/* default region */)constchampionList=awaitkayn.DDragon.Champion.list().version(championVersion)console.log(championList)}
As of v0.8.19, the following DDragon.Champion functions have been added:
DDragon.Champion.getDataById(championName:string)DDragon.Champion.getDataByIdWithParentAsId(championName:string)DDragon.Champion.listDataById()DDragon.Champion.listDataByIdWithParentAsId()DDragon.Champion.listFullDataById()DDragon.Champion.listFullDataByIdWithParentAsId()
Given:
{..."data": {..."Aatrox": {..."id":"Aatrox","key":"266"}}}
someFunctionDataById
changes the shape to:
{..."data": {..."Aatrox": {..."id":"266","key":"Aatrox"}}}
whilesomeFunctionDataByIdWithParentAsId
changes the shape to:
{..."data": {..."266": {..."id":"266","key":"Aatrox"}}}
These functions also cache their own data, separate from the functions that make the actual HTTP requests. They also have their own method names, and are cached under the 'DDRAGON' namespace.
Default: 'na'
Default: 'en_US'
Default: 'https://%s.api.riotgames.com
'
Default: 3 attempts.
Default: 1000 ms (1 second).
This option will be scrapped in the future in favor for more flexibility (linear, exponential, random, etc).
Default: false.
Disabled by default in favor ofspread
.
true
=>riotratelimiter
will use its burst strategy.
false
=>riotratelimiter
will use its spread strategy.
Default: false.
This option will force the process to quit if your API key is blacklisted or invalid.
To cache, firstly create some cache that implements theget
andset
functions thatkayn
interfaces with, and then pass that cache instance tocacheOptions.cache
.
ttls
are method ttls. This part is pretty inconvenient right now. Suggestions are welcome.
Current caches:
- basic in-memory cache
- (node) lru-cache
- Redis cache
For the last two caches, the options that they take are the same options that their respective docs list out. In other words, I basically export wrappers that takes in the options and just passes it to the actual cache client.
import{Kayn,REGIONS,METHOD_NAMES,BasicJSCache,LRUCache,RedisCache}from'kayn'constredisCache=newRedisCache({host:'localhost',port:5000,keyPrefix:'kayn',password:'hello-world',// etc...})constlruCache=newLRUCache({max:500,dispose:(key,value)=>{},length:(value,key)=>1,// maxAge intentionally is disabled})constbasicCache=newBasicJSCache()constmyCache=redisCache// or basicCache/lruCacheconstkayn=Kayn(/* optional key */)({region:'na',locale:'en_US',debugOptions:{isEnabled:true,showKey:false,},requestOptions:{shouldRetry:true,numberOfRetriesBeforeAbort:3,delayBeforeRetry:1000,},cacheOptions:{cache:myCache,timeToLives:{useDefault:true,byGroup:{DDRAGON:1000*60*60*24*30,// cache for a month},byMethod:{[METHOD_NAMES.SUMMONER.GET_BY_SUMMONER_NAME]:1000,// ms},},},})kayn.Summoner.by.name('Contractz').then(()=>kayn.Summoner.by.name('Contractz'))/*200 @ https://na1.api.riotgames.com/lol/summoner/v3/summoners/by-name/ContractzCACHE HIT @ https://na1.api.riotgames.com/lol/summoner/v3/summoners/by-name/Contractz*/
Check outEnums/default-ttls
andEnums/method-names
to find the constants that you can use as keys withinbyGroup
andbyMethod
.
Here is the order in which ttl's resolve (highest-priority first):
- byMethod
- byGroup
- useDefault
Note that if you're using thettls
prop before v0.8.9, you're perfectly fine.ttls
is the source of truth, and has the highest priotity over the above 3 ways.
byMethod
takes pairs ofEnums/method-names
, which are just unique (string-type) identifiers and the ttl value you desire.
cacheOptions:{timeToLives:{byMethod:{[METHOD_NAMES.SUMMONER.GET_BY_SUMMONER_NAME]:1000,}}}// Same as passing this:// 'SUMMONER.GET_BY_SUMMONER_NAME': 1000,// Constants just help for auto-complete.
byGroup
takes pairs as well. The key difference is that it follows how Riot groups their API methods on their developer interface. You can checkEnums/method-names
once again to see how methods are grouped toegher.
byGroup
has lower priority thanbyMethod
. This as you'll see is flexible.
cacheOptions:{ timeToLives:{ byGroup:{MATCH:60*60*24*30,// 30 days} byMethod:{[METHOD_NAMES.MATCH.GET_MATCHLIST]:1000,}}}// Enums/method-names/*const MATCH = { GET_MATCH: 'MATCH.GET_MATCH', GET_MATCHLIST: 'MATCH.GET_MATCHLIST', GET_RECENT_MATCHLIST: 'MATCH.GET_RECENT_MATCHLIST', GET_MATCH_TIMELINE: 'MATCH.GET_MATCH_TIMELINE', GET_MATCH_IDS_BY_TOURNAMENT_CODE: 'MATCH.GET_MATCH_IDS_BY_TOURNAMENT_CODE', GET_MATCH_BY_TOURNAMENT_CODE: 'MATCH.GET_MATCH_BY_TOURNAMENT_CODE',}*/
What this does is set the cache ttl of every single one of the above match method to 30 days. However, sincebyMethod
has higher priority, we are then able to overwrite theMatchlist.by.accountID
ttl, making it only be cached for a second instead.
This is good because the other match methods rarely change, while matchlists can change every 20 minutes.
Simply setuseDefault
intimeToLives
to true. This option basically sets ttls I thought made some sense.useDefault
has the lowest priority, which means you can set it totrue
, and then overwrite it on a case-by-case basis usingbyGroup
andbyMethod
.
// BasicJSCache O(1)// synchronouskayn.flushCache()// this has been turned into a promise so that it can be chained.// still can just be called normally though.// the `data` parameter returns "OK" just like in the RedisCache.async1.then(()=>kayn.flushCache()).then(console.log)// prints OK always. there's no way to get an error..catch(console.err)// RedisCache O(N)// asynchronouskayn.flushCache(function(err,ok){console.log(ok==="OK")})constflush=async()=>{try{awaitkayn.flushCache()// returns "OK", but not really necessary to store.}catch(exception){console.log(exception)}}async1.then(()=>async2()).then(()=>kayn.flushCache()).then(console.log).catch(console.log)
When logging, URLs printed out on the screen will also have the API key query string attached to it, allowing the user to conveniently inspect the response if necessary.
kayn
now usesdebug for all logging purposes.
Here are the current namespaces:
kayn
- init
- request
- incoming
- success
- error
- outgoing
- incoming
- cache
- set
- get
To enable debugging, firstly make sureconfig.debugOptions.isEnabled
istrue
. Then, run your program with the desired DEBUG environment variables.
For example, if you wish to only see the request errors (404, 420, 503, 500, etc), run:
DEBUG=kayn:request:incoming:error<command># DEBUG=kayn:*:error works too.
...where command runs the script/server/whatever (npm run start
,yarn start
,node index.js
).
To enable all loggers, simply run:
DEBUG=kayn:*<command>
If you're interested in what I have built using this library, here's a small web application I made, along with the original reddit post.

Here are the requests stats for anyone interested.
Note that my requests stats are inflated since I'm not really caching at the moment (lol).
Feel free to make an issue (bug, typos, questions, suggestions, whatever) or pull request to fix an issue. Just remember to runprettier
(viayarn lint
).
Package commands:

Here's my general workflow when it comes tokayn
.
Note: You don't have to worry about editor configuration as long as you follow the steps.
- If possible, create a unit test (make more if applicable)
- Set
describe.only
on your test(s) - Run
yarn test
to make sure test is failing - Write implementation and run
yarn test
on completion - You can manually test requests in
example.js
using your own API key- Preferrable just to use a .env file with kayn's default key (RIOT_LOL_API_KEY)
- Run
yarn example
and verify behavior manually
- Remove
describe.only
from your tests and run the entire test suite - When tests pass and manual testing went well, run
yarn lint
- Commit and push! For forks, make sure you check out a new branch
As long this library is pre-1.0.0, breaking changes may be made, but will be documented and will generally not be drastic. Upon 1.0.0, SemVer will be followed strictly.

You are most likely using the defaultspread
rate limiting strategy, which spreads out your requests over rate limit periods.
SetrequestOptions.burst
totrue
to burst your requests instead.
If you're getting 429's, you're most likely processing huge amounts of requests that probably needs to be broken into smaller pieces (while also settingrequestOptions.burst
tofalse
), needs effective caching, and/or requires a more powerful, but smaller library likeriot-lol-api, which also happens to be made by a Riot employee IIRC.TeemoJS would probably work well too!
Occasionally, ifrequestOptions.burst = true
, the rate limiter may get out of sync if you're running thousands of concurrent requests (likeonetricks.net when building stats), which can cause 429's that will propagate until you're blacklisted.
It is thus ideal to use thespread
strategy when working on apps that process a ton of requests because there is a much lower risk of getting a 429. However, for small or dev scripts, bursting your requests is a lot better.
