Developer Overview
Greetings, gamer! If you really do know how to write a bit of code, you can help to improve Rupture for everyone by adding support for new games and extending support for existing ones using the Rupture Client API.
Getting started is very easy, you only need an account with Rupture. In the developer section you’ll find API references, code examples, and a check list to create your first module. Currently the API is implemented in Lua. Lua is a popular scripting language that powers the APIs for many popular games.
Several games already provide an open API, such as World of Warcraft. In these cases, addons for these games can be easily extended to include Rupture support. Integration is as simple as calling a few Lua functions from within your addon, or having your addon save a bit of data in a specific format. If you’re a developer of an existing World of Warcraft addon and interested in learning how to easily publish data to Rupture, you’re in the right place.
You can also use the Rupture Client API to create small Lua modules which are loaded by Rupture Client, and post game data from previously unsupported games. You can even use the Rupture API to build your own applications that post custom statistics and gameplay data to users' profiles.
