Let's talk about Census

• Planetside-2-API-Tracker

  10 33 7.2 JavaScript

  An unofficial repository for Planetside 2 (PS2) Census API Examples, Issues, and Wiki. Collected and Maintained by members of the PS2 API Community.

Us as developers (if you can call me that with the limited public development I do) have had to repeatedly work on ways around issues to the point where we indeed scrape stuff from the game. This data gets put into a GitHub repo which we also use as a central collection for other tools and even mirror some Census data so it doesn't get lost whenever issues occur.

• api

  3 10 5.3 TypeScript

  Centalised API that processes aggregates coming in from the Aggregator via RabbitMQ. Also is a REST interface for the website and external users. (by ps2alerts)

  

Oshur data - we had no choice but to scrape the data from the PTS game client and jury-rig a "response" from Census in all applications which use maps or do things with facilities

• SurveyJS

  surveyjs.io featured

  Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  

• aggregator

  1 11 6.2 TypeScript

  Websocket client which subscribes and processes data from the Census Streaming Service, passing it to the PS2Alerts API via RabbitMQ.

  

Connections to worlds continue to get randomly dropped - we have to implement some form of health checks in our applications to detect if we stop getting events from a server as we just randomly stop getting data for a server

• auraxium

  4 28 6.7 Python

  A high-level Python wrapper for the PlanetSide 2 API.

A big part of that was [writing API wrappers](https://github.com/leonhard-s/auraxium) that take care of most of the undocumented quirks the API has in store for its developers, as well as [updating](https://github.com/leonhard-s/auraxium/wiki/Census-API-Primer) the original API docs and [extending them](https://ps2-api-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/openapi.html).
