POST Requests

League Overseer makes a number of POST requests to its API endpoints. While this plug-in follows BZiON's API specification, you are welcome to write your own endpoints to return custom data or handle matches in a custom website.

Match Reports

This POST request is sent to MATCH_REPORT_URL or LEAGUE_OVERSEER_URL every time a match finishes. League Overseer will output whatever the API endpoint for this request returns as long as it's not an HTML document; in other words, the API endpoint should return plain text.

POST Variable Value Description
query reportMatch The type of request the plug-in submitted
apiVersion 1 The API version plug-in is using. This value is hardcoded in the plug-in and will require you to recompile League Overseer to change this value

teamTwoColor "Red", "Green", "Blue", "Purple" The team color of the second team

teamTwoPlayers comma separated BZIDs A comma separated list of BZIDs for the members of team two; e.g. 180,31980
teamOneIPs comma separated IPs A comma separated list of IPs for the members of team one; this follows the same order as the list of BZIDs; e.g. 127.0.0.1,127.0.0.2
teamTwoIPs comma separated IPs A comma separated list of IPs for the members of team one; this follows the same order as the list of BZIDs; e.g. 127.0.0.1,127.0.0.2

  • The order of the teams being reported respects BZFlag's team color order (red, green, blue, purple). The first team reported is not necessarily the winner of the match.
