The Fortnite tracker api is an excellent way to get your Fortnite battle royal stats, whilst there is no official api yet here is how to use the Fortnite tracker api in php.
Go to Fortnite tracker and get your api key here
Create a php file called fortnite.php
Add and edit the following making sure you add the console, players username (line 2) and your api key (line 8)
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://api.fortnitetracker.com/v1/profile/CONSOLE/PLAYERUSERNAME");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'TRN-Api-Key: *API*KEY*HERE*'
));
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$fp = fopen("stats.json", "w");
fwrite($fp, $response);
fclose($fp); This will fetch the data using curl and save it into a .json file to save excess api calling.
To read the saved data use the following php code:
$data = json_decode(file_get_contents("stats.json"));
$solo = $data->stats->p2;//solos data
$duos = $data->stats->p10;//duos data
$squads = $data->stats->p9;//squads data
$solo_wins = $solo->top1->valueInt;
$duos_wins = $duos->top1->valueInt;
$squads_wins = $squads->top1->valueInt;
$solo_matches = $solo->matches->valueInt;
$duos_matches = $duos->matches->valueInt;
$squads_matches = $squads->matches->valueInt;
$solo_kd = $solo->kd->valueDec;
$duos_kd = $duos->kd->valueDec;
$squads_kd = $squads->kd->valueDec;
$solo_games = $solo->matches->valueInt;
$duos_games = $duos->matches->valueInt;
$squads_games = $squads->matches->valueInt;
$solo_kills = $solo->kills->valueInt;
$duos_kills = $duos->kills->valueInt;
$squads_kills = $squads->kills->valueInt; I have included some examples of getting certain values, but there are plenty more. To view the json file (api call response) see the spoiler below, you can see how the iteration through the arrays is done
