This is a tool for creating a dashboard for clan participation in ClashRoyale. See https://developer.clashroyale.com to sign up for a developer account and create an API key to use with this.
For an example dashboard created for the clan Agrassar (#JY8YVV), see: https://agrassar.com/
This tool is a static site generator -- it generates static HTML, JavaScript, and CSS used to render the dashboard. If you wish to use this, you should set it up to run once per hour on your web server.
This requires Python 3 and pip on your machine. To install, use
pip3 install crtools
If you have an older version installed, to upgrade to the latest version, run:
pip3 install -U crtools
Usage:
crtools [-h] [--locale LOCALE] [--config CONFIG-FILE] [--api_key KEY] [--clan TAG] [--out PATH] [--favicon PATH] [--clan_logo PATH] [--description PATH] [--canonical_url URL] [--debug] [--version]
- optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit --locale LOCALE Locale if language other than English is desired. Currently, only "fr" is valid. --config FILE configuration file for this app. --api_key KEY API key for developer.clashroyale.com --clan CLAN Clan ID from Clash Royale. If it starts with a '#', clan ID must be quoted. --out PATH Output path for HTML. --favicon PATH Source path for favicon.ico. If provided, we will copy to the output directory. --clan_logo PATH Source path for clan logo PNG. Recommended at least 64x64 pizels. If provided, we will copy to the output directory. --description PATH Source path snippet of HTML to replace the clan description. Should not be a complete HTML document. Sample here: https://github.com/AaronTraas/crtools-agrassar-assets/blob/master/description.html If provided, we will copy to the output directory. --canonical_url URL Canonical URL for this site. Used for setting the rel=canonical link in the web site, as well as generating the robots.txt and sitemap.xml --debug Turns on debug mode --version List the version of crtools.
crtools looks for a config file in your home directory called .crtools
This is an INI file. As of current version, there's only one possible parameter: api_key. The file should look like:
[API]
# API key provided for your account at https://developer.clashroyale.com
# Note that the key is limited to a specific list of public IP addresses
api_key=<YOUR-API-KEY>
# Your clan tag
clan_id=#JY8YVV
[Paths]
# your output path. Where you want the static website to live.
out=/var/www/html
# Path to the logo artwork for clan. Must be PNG. Recommended at
# least 64x64 pixels.
clan_logo=~/myclan/logo.png
# Path to the favicon file you want to use for this
favicon=~/myclan/favicon.ico
# Path to a file that contains arbitrary HTML for the site.
description_html=~/myclan/body.html
[www]
# Canonical URL for this site. Used for setting the rel=canonical
# link in the web site, as well as generating the robots.txt
# and sitemap.xml
canonical_url=https://yourclan.com/
For more details, see samples/crtools.ini
The design of this site is optionally enhanced by the fan kit provided by Supercell here. To enable automated downloading of the fan kit, add:
use_fankit=True
To the [Paths]
section of your config file.
NOTE: This requires about 5GB free in your temp forlder on the machine that crtools runs on. It will take 10-15 minutes to download and extract, but only the first time you run with the fankit enabled.
If you have problems, you can manually install the fan kit. See Fan Kit Manual Install Instructions
Crtools currently supports English and French. If you'd like to use French, add the following switch on the command line:
--locale=fr
If you wish for crtools to be available in another languages, reach out to me. I'm unable to do the translation myself (I speak only English), but I can help you provide a translation for this.
This tool is a static site generator -- it generates static HTML, JavaScript,
and CSS used to render the dashboard. If you wish to use this, you should set
it up to run once per hour on your web server using cron
or similar.
Below is an example setup on Linux.
Assuming root is going to be running the script:
- Install this application via pip
- Install nginx or apache
- Find your document root (e.g.,
/var/www/html
) - Create
/root/.crtools
file as specified above, and add your API key (from https://developer.clashroyale.com), output path (the document root), and clan tag - Create the following entry in your crontab:
0 * * * * crtools
This project uses SonarQube for static analysis. The results of analysis are at SonarCloud. The code quality and test coverage are a work in progress.
If you need help getting this up and running, feel free to hop on the crtools discord.
Keep in mind, this is a command-line utility that expects a working Python 3 environment. It also assumes you will know how to configure a web server to serve up HTML, as well as cron or similar on your given platform. There is no install wizard, GUI of any kind, etc.
