🚀 Admin Features & Squad Management

New in v1.0.8! Powerful admin capabilities for enhanced squad management:

⭐ Update Player Scores (Admin Only):

from mc5_api_client import quick_update_player_score

# Update any player's score, XP, and kill signature
result = quick_update_player_score(
    target_user_id="anonymous:d2luOF92M18xNzcwMDUxNjkwXy7H33aeTVB4YZictyDq48c=",
    score=5200,
    xp=2037745,
    killsig_color="-974646126",
    killsig_id="default_killsig_80"
)

if result.get('success'):
    print("✅ Player score updated successfully!")
    print(f"New score: {result.get('score')}")
    print(f"New XP: {result.get('xp')}")

� Admin Client Usage:

from mc5_api_client import create_admin_client

# Create admin client with elevated privileges
client = create_admin_client()
client.connect()

# Update player information
result = client.update_player_score(
    target_user_id="player_user_id",
    score=10000,
    xp=5000000,
    killsig_color="16777215",
    killsig_id="default_killsig_42"
)

# Get squad members (if you have access)
members = client.get_squad_members()
print(f"Found {len(members)} squad members")

# Kick members (if you have permissions)
# client.kick_member("member_user_id", "Reason for kick")

client.close()

⚠️ Important Admin Limitations:

• ✅ Can Update: Individual player scores, XP, kill signatures
• ✅ Can Kick: Squad members (with proper permissions)
• ❌ Cannot Edit: Squad rating directly (requires squad ownership)
• ❌ Cannot Modify: Squad settings (requires squad ownership)

🔧 How It Actually Works:

Admin privileges allow you to modify individual player data within a squad, which indirectly affects the squad's overall rating through the sum of member scores, but you cannot directly set the squad's rating value.

🎮 Simple Usage for Non-Developers

New in v1.0.7! We've added a revolutionary super-simple interface for non-developers:

🚀 Quick Start - Just 3 Lines!

from mc5_api_client import SimpleMC5Client

# Connect and auto-detect your clan
client = SimpleMC5Client('YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD')
client.connect()

# Search for any player by dogtag
player = client.search_player('f55f')
print(f"Found: {player['kills']:,} kills")

🎯 Super Simple Examples:

Search Players:

# One-line search
from mc5_api_client import quick_search
player = quick_search('218f', 'YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD')
print(f"Elite player: {player['kills']:,} kills!")

Batch Search with Loop:

from mc5_api_client.simple_client import batch_search_players

dogtags = ['f55f', '9gg9', '78d7', '218f']
results = batch_search_players(dogtags, 'YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD')

# Conditional processing
for player in results['found']:
    if player['kills'] > 10000:
        print(f"🌟 Elite: {player['dogtag']} - {player['kills']:,} kills")
    else:
        print(f"👤 Player: {player['dogtag']} - {player['kills']:,} kills")

Smart Clan Cleanup:

from mc5_api_client.simple_client import clan_cleanup

# Intelligent cleanup with conditional logic
results = clan_cleanup(
    'YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD',
    inactive_days=30,
    min_level=15,  # Protect high-level players
    dry_run=True   # Simulation only
)

print(f"Would kick: {results['would_kick']} members")
print(f"Protected: {results['protected']} members")

if results['would_kick'] > 0:
    print("⚠️ Consider removing inactive members")

Real-time Monitoring:

from mc5_api_client.simple_client import monitor_clan_activity

# Monitor clan activity every 60 seconds for 10 checks
monitor_clan_activity(
    'YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD',
    check_interval=60,
    max_checks=10
)

Clan Management:

with SimpleMC5Client('YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD') as client:
    client.connect()  # Auto-detects your clan!
    
    # Get all clan members
    members = client.get_clan_members()
    print(f"Your clan has {len(members)} members")
    
    # Kick by dogtag (no clan ID needed!)
    client.kick_member('9gg9', 'Inactive for 30 days')
    
    # Update clan settings
    client.update_clan_settings(name="Elite Squad 2026")

Send Messages:

with SimpleMC5Client('YOUR_USERNAME', 'YOUR_PASSWORD') as client:
    client.connect()
    
    # Send message to any player by dogtag
    client.send_message('f55f', 'Want to play together?')

✨ Key Benefits for Non-Developers:

• ✅ No Clan ID Needed: Auto-detects your clan from your profile
• ✅ Simple Method Names: search_player() instead of get_player_stats_by_dogtag()
• ✅ Auto-Connection: Just call connect() once
• ✅ Clear Error Messages: User-friendly error descriptions
• ✅ Context Manager: Automatic cleanup with with statement
• ✅ Quick Functions: One-liners for common tasks

📚 Simple vs Advanced Comparison:

Task	Simple Version	Advanced Version
Search Player	client.search_player('f55f')	client.get_player_stats_by_dogtag('f55f')
Get Clan Members	client.get_clan_members()	client.get_clan_members(clan_id)
Kick Member	client.kick_member('9gg9')	client.kick_clan_member_by_dogtag('9gg9', clan_id)
Connect	client.connect()	Manual authentication

🎯 Perfect For:

• Clan Leaders: Easy member management
• Players: Quick stats lookup
• Beginners: No programming experience needed
• Quick Tasks: One-liner functions

📖 How It Actually Works

🔑 Getting Your Login Credentials

Before you can use the API, you need your MC5 login info:

1. Username: This looks like anonymous:some_long_string_here=
2. Password: Your regular MC5 password

Where do I find this?

• Your username is usually stored in the game files
• The password is what you use to log into the game

🎯 Different Ways to Authenticate

Method 1: Login when creating the client

client = MC5Client(
    username="anonymous:your_username_here",
    password="your_password_here"
)

Method 2: Login later

client = MC5Client()
client.authenticate(
    username="anonymous:your_username_here", 
    password="your_password_here"
)

Method 3: Admin access (if you have it)

client.authenticate_admin()

👤 Managing Your Profile

Want to check your stats or update your profile?

# Get your current profile
profile = client.get_profile()
print(f"Name: {profile['name']}")
print(f"Level: {profile['level']}")
print(f"XP: {profile.get('xp', 'N/A')}")

# Update your profile (if the game allows it)
try:
    client.update_profile({
        "name": "CoolNewName",
        "description": "I love MC5!"
    })
    print("Profile updated!")
except:
    print("Couldn't update profile - might not be allowed")

🏰 Complete Clan Management

If you run a clan, you can manage it programmatically with comprehensive features:

# Get your profile and clan info
profile = client.get_profile()
clan_id = profile['groups'][0]  # Your clan ID

# Get clan members
members = client.get_clan_members(clan_id)
for member in members:
    print(f"{member['name']} - XP: {member['_xp']} - Status: {member['status']}")

# Update clan settings
client.update_clan_settings(
    clan_id=clan_id,
    name="Elite Squad",
    description="Best clan ever!",
    member_limit="50",
    logo="1",
    logo_primary_color="12722475",
    membership="owner_approved"
)

# Kick member by dogtag
result = client.kick_clan_member_by_dogtag(
    dogtag="9gg9",
    clan_id=clan_id,
    from_name="CLAN_ADMIN",
    kill_sign_name="default_killsig_42"
)

# Search for clans
clans = client.search_clans("Elite", limit=10)
for clan in clans:
    print(f"{clan['name']} - {clan['member_count']} members")

# Create a new clan
new_clan = client.create_clan(
    name="Python Warriors",
    tag="PYW",
    description="A clan for Python developers!",
    membership_type="open"
)

# Get clan info
clan_id = new_clan.get('id')
clan_info = client.get_clan_settings(clan_id)
print(f"Clan: {clan_info['name']}")

# Manage members
members = client.get_clan_members(clan_id)
print(f"Found {len(members)} members")

# Invite a player
client.invite_clan_member(clan_id, "anonymous:player_credential", "officer")

# Handle applications
applications = client.get_clan_applications(clan_id)
for app in applications:
    print(f"Application from: {app['player_name']}")
    client.accept_clan_application(clan_id, app['credential'], "member")

# Get clan statistics
stats = client.get_clan_statistics(clan_id)
print(f"Total wins: {stats.get('total_wins', 0)}")

# Get internal leaderboard
leaderboard = client.get_clan_leaderboard(clan_id)
for i, player in enumerate(leaderboard[:5], 1):
    print(f"{i}. {player['name']} - {player['score']} points")

👥 Squad/Group Management

Manage your squad members and their stats in real-time:

# Get all squad members with stats
members = client.get_group_members("your-group-id")
for member in members:
    print(f"{member['name']} - Score: {member['_score']} - Online: {member['online']}")

# Update member stats
client.update_member_score("group-id", "member-credential", 1500)
client.update_member_xp("group-id", "member-credential", 2500000)

# Update kill signature
client.update_member_killsig(
    "group-id", 
    "member-credential",
    "default_killsig_90",
    "-123456789"
)

# Get online members only
online_members = client.get_online_members("group-id")
print(f"{len(online_members)} members online now")

# Get squad statistics
stats = client.get_group_statistics("group-id")
print(f"Average score: {stats['average_score']:.1f}")
print(f"Total XP: {stats['total_xp']:,}")

# Find specific member
member = client.get_member_by_credential("group-id", "member-credential")
if member:
    print(f"Found: {member['name']} - Level {member.get('level', 'Unknown')}")

💬 Squad Wall Communication

    kill_sign_color="-123456789",
    kill_sign_name="default_killsig_95"
)

# Get inbox messages

]

for credential, message in zip(target_players, messages):
    client.send_private_message(credential=credential, message=message)
    time.sleep(1)  # Small delay between messages

� Daily Tasks and Events

Never miss your daily rewards:

# Get all active events
events = client.get_events()

for event in events:
    print(f"📅 {event['name']}")
    print(f"   Status: {event['status']}")
    
    # Check if it's daily tasks
    if 'daily' in event['name'].lower() or 'activities' in event['name'].lower():
        print("   🎯 This is your daily tasks event!")
        
        # Get the tasks
        template = event.get('_template', {})
        tasks = template.get('event_tuning', {}).get('_tasks', {}).get('value', [])
        
        for i, task in enumerate(tasks[:3]):  # Show first 3 tasks
            points = task.get('points', 0)
            print(f"      Task {i+1}: {points} points")

🔐 Encrypted Token Support

For users who prefer additional security, the module now supports token encryption:

from mc5_api_client import quick_generate_encrypted_token, quick_encrypt_token

# Generate and encrypt a token in one step
encrypted_data = quick_generate_encrypted_token(
    username="anonymous:d2luOF92M18xNzcwMDUxNjkwXy7H33aeTVB4YZictyDq48c=",
    password="sSJKzhQ5l4vrFgov",
    nonce="*"  # Custom nonce value (optional)
)

print(f"Token ID: {encrypted_data['token_id']}")
print(f"Encrypted Token: {encrypted_data['encrypted_token']}")
print(f"Expires: {encrypted_data['expires_at']}")

# Encrypt an existing token
existing_token = "your_raw_access_token_here"
encrypted_token = quick_encrypt_token(existing_token, "*")
print(f"Encrypted: {encrypted_token}")

Advanced TokenGenerator Usage:

from mc5_api_client import TokenGenerator

# Create token generator with custom settings
token_gen = TokenGenerator(
    encrypt_url="https://eur-janus.gameloft.com/encrypt_token"
)

try:
    # Generate encrypted token
    result = token_gen.generate_encrypted_token(
        username="anonymous:credential",
        password="password",
        nonce="custom_nonce"
    )
    
    # Or encrypt existing token
    encrypted = token_gen.encrypt_token(
        access_token="raw_token",
        nonce="custom_nonce"
    )
    
finally:
    token_gen.close()  # Always close the session

Security Benefits:

• ✅ Additional Layer: Tokens are encrypted before transmission
• ✅ Custom Nonce: Support for custom nonce values
• ✅ Backward Compatible: Works with existing authentication flow
• ✅ Error Handling: Proper validation and error recovery

🏆 Checking Leaderboards

See how you stack up:

from mc5_api_client import MC5Client

# Test that the method exists
client = MC5Client()
if hasattr(client, 'get_leaderboard'):
    print("✅ get_leaderboard method available")
    
    # You would need to authenticate first:
    # client.authenticate('username', 'password')
    # leaderboard = client.get_leaderboard("ro")
    # print(f"Top {len(leaderboard.get('players', []))} players")
else:
    print("❌ get_leaderboard method not found")

🖥️ CLI Commands - Currently Available

The CLI tool provides basic functionality with these commands:

# Show help information
python -m mc5_api_client.cli --help

# Show version information
python -m mc5_api_client.cli version

Current Available Commands:

• --help, -h - Show help message
• version - Show version information

Note: Advanced CLI commands (token management, clan operations) are planned features for future versions. The current CLI provides basic help and version functionality.

🔧 Where Does Everything Get Saved?

The CLI saves your stuff in a special folder:

• Windows: C:\Users\YourName\.mc5\
• Mac/Linux: ~/.mc5/

Inside you'll find:

• config.json - Your saved username and settings
• token.json - Your login tokens (so you don't have to login every time)
• debug.log - Debug information (if you use debug mode)

🚨 When Things Go Wrong

Don't worry! The library has great error handling:

from mc5_api_client import MC5Client
from mc5_api_client.exceptions import (
    MC5APIError,
    AuthenticationError,
    TokenExpiredError,
    RateLimitError,
    NetworkError

🎯 Pro Tips

🔄 Auto-Refresh Tokens

Don't want to worry about your login expiring?

client = MC5Client(
    username="your_username",
    password="your_password",
    auto_refresh=True  # Magic! 🪄
)

# Your token will refresh automatically when it expires

📦 Use Context Manager (Clean Code)

with MC5Client(username="user", password="pass") as client:
    profile = client.get_profile()
    events = client.get_events()
    # Connection automatically closes when done!

🎯 Custom Permissions

Only need specific permissions?

client.authenticate(
    username="user",
    password="pass",
    scope="message chat social"  # Only these permissions
)
