Steam Badges & Levels

[TheSeg]

Tracker issue for implementing the new Steam Level, Badges and related WebAPI methods.

• IPlayerService
  • ::GetSteamLevel
  • ::GetBadges
  • ::GetCommunityBadgeProgress

Note: Scheme isn't available to match badges yet, but doesn't prevent implementing these methods.

I (@TheSeg) got this for PHP. Making the issue for my reference and for the other platforms.

It seems this has been removed again. Can you confirm this?

[TheSeg]

Yea, looks like it was removed. I'll keep eyeing for changes.

A side note: I think I'm going to make an automated diff agent for ISteamWebAPIUtil::GetSupportedAPIList that will alert me when there's changes. Both with and w/o a key.

@TheSeg are there any details for this? I've already implemented the IPlayerSevice in Java, so I can add these methods in.

As of this comment, the methods are back.

Because it's late, I just did a quick check and compare between the TF2 wiki notes and the representation, which seem to match up. I couldn't get the optional badgeid param to return anything useful with GetCommunityBadgeProgress, but returns do work without that param.

• GetSteamLevel
• GetBadges
• GetCommunityBadgeProgress

Thanks, I'll look into including these.

The documentation for the Steam Level is amusing :)

There's still no way to get really useful data from this methods, i.e. there's no way to get the badge names, logos etc.

Putting this on hold for now, it has been since over a year now and will probably stay like that until 2.0.0 is released. After that, I'll decide if it will be closed for good.
