gollark: Or kilohashes, actually.
gollark: Shouldn't it be kHz?
gollark: And if you just want to scrape the site's HTML to get information, tough; the class names are seemingly deliberately obfuscated, there's no semantic HTML, and a lot of stuff is paginated (which admittedly is fine for actual browser use).
gollark: It seems to me as if it's deliberately designed to make third-party stuff as annoying as possible. The examples are all for PHP, it uses a weird system[1] instead of fairly standardized HTTP response codes, there are some special cases (-2 and -1 on hoursleft on a dragon) which are a bit weird, and the API keys are request-only. I emailed TJ09 asking for one and got no response (EDIT: oops, there's a request form. Either I missed that or it was added recently.)
gollark: It's a shame the DC API isn't more, well, usable. There could be loads of cool stuff like that made.
