Hello,
You have absolutely right.
This is my simple code

I have tested with EasyPhp and Anigame it work's

PHP Source Code

<?php
$GAMER=$_GET['spieler'];
$PREFIX="http://uni104.ogame.it/";
$XMLURL="";
$NUMERO=0;
$XMLURL=$PREFIX . "api/players.xml";
echo "<center>";
/*
if (file_exists($XMLURL)) {
$xml = simplexml_load_file($XMLURL);
print_r($xml);
} else {
exit('Failed to open test.xml.');
}
*/
$xml = simplexml_load_file($XMLURL);
foreach($xml->children() as $child)
{
if (strcmp(strtoupper($child["name"]),strtoupper($GAMER))==0)
{
echo $child["name"] . "  (" . $child["status"] . ")<br><br>";
echo "<table border=1><tr align=center><td>Coordinate</td><td>Colonia</td><td>Luna</td></tr>";
$XMLURL=$PREFIX . "api/playerData.xml?id=" . $child["id"];
$pp = simplexml_load_file($XMLURL);
foreach($pp->children() as $pp01)
{
if (strcmp($pp01->getName(),"planets")==0)
{
foreach($pp01->children() as $pp02)
{
$aa = explode(":", $pp02["coords"]);
$LINKO=$PREFIX . "game/index.php?page=galaxy&no_header=1&";
echo "<tr align=center><td><a target=_blank href=" . $LINKO . "galaxy=" . $aa[0] . "&system=" . $aa[1] ."&planet=" . $aa[2] . ">" . $pp02["coords"] . "</a></td><td>" . $pp02["name"] . "</td>";
$NUMERO=$NUMERO+1;
foreach($pp02->children() as $luna)
{
echo "<td>" . $luna["name"] . "</td></tr>";
}
}
}
}
}
}
echo "</table>";
echo "<br>Totale Pianeti " . $NUMERO;
echo "</center>";
?>

Hello, I´d like to suggest that highscore.xml without type parameter give all the types as attributes for every player/alliance.
For example:

Source Code

<player id="302163" score_0="3962478" position_0="1" score_1="3962478" position_1="1" ships="10" .../>

I´m actually using this file and storing it´s values in database and I can tell you, that it take several minutes to walk through 7 files for each players and alliance when you have about 6k players in the universe. So this could speed up the process about 7 times.
And if someone doesn´t need all of the attributes he will be still able to use type parameter.

Or is there any quick&easy way to merge these files together in PHP?

Omar Hawk · Feb 8th 2013, 6:37pm

I'm not really sure, what you want to do.

If you want to get data for only a single player, there is the playerData.xml, whch contains also all the highscore values for a single player.
If you just want to read in all the data into tables and this is taking several minutes you are doing something really wrong. E.g. the Galaxytool requires a maximum of 10s to read all API files (universe.xml + all highscore files) and INSERT the complete data into a MySQL database. For small universes, the required time is even less!

hynner · Feb 9th 2013, 8:55pm

well, it turned out that you were right, my code wasn´t optimized. I managed to get the highscore update time down to 3.5s for 3500 players.
But it could be about a half without having to go through 7 files, so I think it might be worth it.

Black Cat · Mar 25th 2013, 3:34pm

what is the update interval of localization.xml?
edit: it seems to be 1 day

Black Cat · Mar 26th 2013, 6:29pm

in 5.4:

[Feature Request] OGame API additions (extra fields setting)

I noticed that moon size is added in playerData.xml, can we have more infos?

My last update from Francolino was that this feature is delayed.

no, as I said they added moon size in playerData.xml, but what else??? we still don't have any information

jrme · Apr 25th 2013, 2:26pm

Moonsize in playerData.xml And when there is a bonus to the size of the primary planet, it is now indicated in in serverData.xml.

And btw this has been posted on .fr board few days ago

Black Cat · Apr 25th 2013, 7:10pm

thanks jrme

My bad :x Sorry

So...
I think you should provide a json version of the API, since modern browsers have a JSON parser included.
For older browsers there's a plugin available.

github.com/douglascrockford/JSON-js

Use of JSON would reduce browser plugin code size and maintenance times.

Warsaalk · Apr 27th 2013, 12:05pm

Json would indeed be faster and more usefull in some cases.
I'd also like to test that !

But i'd still like to have the xml version for now

Because it's easy to use native DOM to search for nodes etc !

Francolino · May 8th 2013, 4:45pm

Serverlist for each community - added with OGame 5.5:

uni670.ogame.org/api/universes.xml

- This file is hosted on all universe server for each community

Using JSON for such a huge amount of Data is not senseful.

- You can't handle exceptions well
- The browser (tab) freezes for many seconds while parsing the object, and much more on mobile devices

That's it, thanks :)

Please be glad THAT there is an API, and using XML is much more flexible.

marshen · May 9th 2013, 11:29am

endless war between JSON and XML.

For me JSON is much easier to parse (in particular for languages that ain't javascript). But I don't want to discuss with you advantages and disadvantages but

Why not both? Give everyone what he things is best.

Black Cat · May 9th 2013, 12:54pm

I agree with Francolino, it's not a good habit to use JSON for a big amount of data, because you must parse all data before reading them and you never need everything
it takes too much time for nothing... when you can use XML to read the particular element you need at a moment, and read another element for instance 10 seconds later if you need it at this time (it's what i do here with players.xml and highscore.xml)
