A complete and up-to-date database of Old School Runescape (OSRS) items, monsters and prayers accessible using a Python API.
Project description
osrsbox-db
A complete and up-to-date database of Old School Runescape (OSRS) items, monsters and prayers
This project hosts a complete and up-to-date database of every item, every monster and every prayer in OSRS. Complete means it holds every single item, monster and prayer in OSRS. Up-to-date means this database is updated after every weekly game update to ensure accurate information.
The item database has extensive properties for each item: a total of 27 properties for every item, an additional 16 properties for equipable items, and an additional 3 properties for equipable weapons. These properties include the item ID and name, whether an item is tradeable, stackable, or equipable or if the item is members only or associated with a quest. For any equipable item, there are additional properties about combat stats the item has; for example, what slash attack bonus, magic defence bonus or prayer bonus that an item provides. For weapons, additional properties are added which include attack speed and combat stance/weapon type information.
The monster database also has extensive properties: a total of 44 unique properties for each monster, as well as an array of item drops for each monster that has 6 additional properties per item drop. The base properties include the monster ID, name, member status, and all monster combat stats. Additional properties include slayer-related properties, attack type, hit points and max hit. Each monster also has an associated array of drops which document the item ID, name, rarity, quantity, and any requirements to get the drop.
The prayer database documentes each prayer that available in-game and has detailed properties: a total of 8 properties for every prayer. The base properties include the prayer name, members status, description, requirements, and bonuses that it provides.

Project Summary
The osrsbox-db project provides three primary data sources for:
- Items
- Monsters
- Prayers
The osrsbox-db project and data is accessible using three primary methods:
The osrsbox
Python PyPi Package
If you want to access the item and monster database programmatically using Python, the simplest option is to use the osrsbox
package available from PyPi. You can load the item and/or monster database and process item objects, monster objects, and their properties.
Package Quick Start
- Make sure you have >= Python 3.6
- Install package using:
pip install osrsbox
- Item database quick start:
- Import items API using:
from osrsbox import items_api
- Load all items using:
all_db_items = items_api.load()
- Loop items using:
for item in all_db_items: print(item.name)
- Import items API using:
- Monster database quick start:
- Import monsters API using:
from osrsbox import monsters_api
- Load all monsters using:
all_db_monsters = monsters_api.load()
- Loop monsters using:
for monster in all_db_monsters: print(monster.name)
- Import monsters API using:
- Prayer database quick start:
- Import prayers API using:
from osrsbox import prayers_api
- Load all prayers using:
all_db_prayers = prayers_api.load()
- Loop prayers using:
for prayer in all_db_prayers: print(prayer.name)
- Import prayers API using:
Package Requirements
For the osrsbox
PyPi package you must meet the following requirements:
- Python 3.6 or above
- Pip package manager
- Dataclasses package (if Python is below 3.7)
If you are using Python 3.6, the dataclasses
package will automatically be installed. If you are using Python 3.7 or above, the dataclasses
package is part of the standard library and will not be installed automatically.
Package Installation
The easiest way to install the osrsbox package is through the Python Package Index using the pip
command. You need to have pip
installed - and make sure it is updated (especially on Windows). Then you can install the osrsbox
package using the following pip
command:
pip install osrsbox
Package Upgrading
The package is consistently updated - usually after each weekly in-game update. This is because the in-game update usually introduces additional items into the game or changes existing items. Therefore, you should regularly check and update the osrsbox
package. To achieve this, run pip
with the upgrade
flag, as demonstrated in the following command:
pip install --upgrade osrsbox
Package Usage
The key use of the osrsbox
package is to load and automate the processing of OSRS items and their associated metadata. You can load the package using import osrsbox
, however, you probably want to load the items_api
module or monsters_api
module. A simple example of using the package to load
all the items, then loop and print out the item ID and name of every item in OSRS is provided below:
phoil@gilenor ~ $ python3.6
Python 3.6.8 (default, Jan 14 2019, 11:02:34)
[GCC 8.0.1 20180414 (experimental) [trunk revision 259383]] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from osrsbox import items_api
>>> all_db_items = items_api.load()
>>> for item in all_db_items:
... print(item.id, item.name)
Instead of using the Python interpreter, you can also write a simple script and import the osrsbox
Python package. An example script is provided below, this time for the monsters_api
:
#!/usr/bin/python3
from osrsbox import monsters_api
all_db_monsters = monsters_api.load()
for monster in all_db_monsters:
print(monster.id, monster.name)
If you would like to review additional examples of using the osrsbox
Python API, have a look at the items_api_examples
folder and monsters_api_examples
folder. There are a number of scripts available that provide examples of loading and processing data using the Python API.
The osrsbox RESTful API
The official osrsbox-api GitHub repository hosts the source code used for the RESTful API. The official osrsbox-api
project is available from:
Have a look at the official osrsbox-api
project README for more information on API endpoints, documentation, Swagger UI availability and examples of API queries.
The osrsbox-db
GitHub Repository
The official osrsbox-db GitHub repository hosts the source code for the entire osrsbox-db project. The Python PyPi package is located in the osrsbox
folder of the official development repository, while the other folders in this repository are used to store essential data and Python modules to build the item database.
Using the Development Repository
If using this repository (the development version), you will need to fulfil some specific requirements. This includes having the following tools available on your system:
- Python 3.6 or above
- Pip - the standard package manager for Python
- A selection of additional Python packages
As a short example, I configured my Ubuntu 18.04 system to run the development repository code using the following steps:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
These two commands will install the pip3
command, allowing the installation of Python packages. Then you can use pip3
to install additional packages. The development repository requires a variety of Python packages in addition to the mandatory dataclasses
package. These package requirements are documented in the requirements.txt
file. It is recommended to use the venv
module to set up your environment, then install the specified requirements. As an example, the following workflow is provided for Linux-based environments (make sure python3
is available first):
git clone --recursive https://github.com/osrsbox/osrsbox-db.git
cd osrsbox-db
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
When you have finished with working in the osrsbox-db
repository, make sure to deactivate the current venv
environment using:
deactivate

Item, Monster and Prayer Database Schemas
Technically, the osrsbox-db
is not really a database - more specifically it should be called a data set. Anyway... the contents in the item/monster/prayer database need to adhere to a specified structure, as well as specified data types for each property. This is achieved (documented and tested) using the Cerberus project. The Cerberus schema is useful to determine the properties that are available for each entity, and the types and requirements for each property, including:
type
: Specifies the data type (e.g., boolean, integer, string)required
: If the property must be populated (true or false)nullable
: If the property can be set tonull
orNone
The Cerberus schemas are provided in a dedicated repository called osrsbox/schemas
, and implorted into this project as a submodule - this is because the schemas are used in other respositories and central management is required. The schemas are loaded into the data/schemas
folder and includes:
schema-items.json
: This file defines the item schema, the defined properties, the property types, and some additional specifications including regex validation, and/or property type specification.schema-monsters.json
: This file defines the monster schema, the defined properties, the property types, and some additional specifications including regex validation, and/or property type specification.schema-prayers.json
: This file defines the prayer schema, the defined properties, the property types, and some additional specifications including regex validation, and/or property type specification.
All Cerberus schema files are authored using Cerberus version 1.3.2. This project uses the Cerberus
PyPi package.
The Item Database
Each item is represented by Python objects when using the PyPi osrsbox
package, specifically using Python dataclass objects. Additionally, the data is accessible directly by parsing the raw JSON files. There are three types of objects, or classifications of data, that can be used to represent part of an in-game OSRS item, each outlined in the following subsections.
Item Properties
An ItemProperties
object type includes basic item metadata such as id
, name
, examine
text, store cost
, highalch
and lowalch
values and quest_item
association. Every item object in the item database has all of these properties. If you are parsing the raw JSON files all of these properties are in the root of the JSON document - so they are not nested. All of the properties available are listed in the table below including the property name, the data types used, a description of the property, if the property is required to be populated, and if the property is nullable (able to be set to null
or None
).
Property | Data type | Description | Required | Nullable |

tradeable_on_ge | boolean | If the item is tradeable (only on GE). | True | False |
stackable | boolean | If the item is stackable (in inventory). | True | False |
stacked | boolean | If the item is stacked. | True | False |

equipable_by_player | boolean | If the item is equipable in-game by a player. | True | False |
equipable_weapon | boolean | If the item is an equipable weapon. | True | False |
cost | integer | The store price of an item. | True | False |
lowalch | integer | The low alchemy value of the item (cost * 0.4). | True | False |
highalch | integer | The high alchemy value of the item (cost * 0.6). | True | False |
weight | float | The weight (in kilograms) of the item. | True | True |
buy_limit | integer | The Grand Exchange buy limit of the item. | True | True |
quest_item | boolean | If the item is associated with a quest. | True | False |
release_date | string | Date the item was released (in ISO8601 format). | True | True |

equipment | dict | The equipment bonuses of equipable armour/weapons. | True | True |
weapon | dict | The weapon bonuses including attack speed, type and stance. | True | True |
Item Equipment
Many items in OSRS are equipable, this includes armor, weapons, and other wearable items. Any equipable item has additional properties stored as an ItemEquipment
object type - including attributes such as attack_slash
, defence_crush
and melee_strength
values. The ItemEquipment
object is nested within an ItemProperties
. If you are parsing the raw JSON files, this data is nested under the equipment
key. It is very important to note that not all items in OSRS are equipable. Only items with the equipable_by_player
property set to true
are equipable. The equipable
property is similar, but this is the raw data extracted from the game cache - and can sometimes be incorrect (not equipable by a player). All of the properties available for equipable items are listed in the table below including the property name, the data types used, a description of the property, if the property is required to be populated, and if the property is nullable (able to be set to null
or None
).
Property | Data type | Description | Required | Nullable |
---|---|---|---|---|
attack_stab | integer | The attack stab bonus of the item. | True | False |
attack_slash | integer | The attack slash bonus of the item. | True | False |
attack_crush | integer | The attack crush bonus of the item. | True | False |

prayer | integer | The prayer bonus of the item. | True | False |
slot | string | The equipment slot associated with the item (e.g., head). | True | False |
requirements | dict | An object of requirements {skill: level}. | True | True |
Item Weapon
A select number of items in OSRS are equipable weapons. Any equipable item that is a weapon has additional properties stored as an ItemWeapon
type object including attributes such as attack_speed
and weapon_types
values. Additionally, each weapon has an array of combat stances associated with it to determine the combat_style
, attack_type
, attack_style
and any bonuses
or combat experience
association. The ItemWeapon
object is nested within an ItemProperties
object when using the Python API. If you are parsing the raw JSON files, this data is nested under the weapon
key. It is very important to note that not all items in OSRS are equipable weapons. Only items with the equipable_weapon
property set to true
are equipable. All of the properties available for equipable weapons are listed in the table below including the property name, the data types used, a description of the property, if the property is required to be populated, and if the property is nullable (able to be set to null
or None
).
Property | Data type | Description | Required | Nullable |
---|---|---|---|---|
attack_speed | integer | The attack speed of a weapon (in game ticks). | True | False |
weapon_type | string | The weapon classification (e.g., axe) | True | False |
stances | list | An array of weapon stance information. | True | False |
Item: Python Object Example
A description of the properties that each item in the database can have is useful, but sometimes it is simpler to provide an example. Below is a full example of an item as loaded in a Python object, specifically the Abyssal whip item. Since this item is a type of equipment, there is an EquipmentProperties
object nested with combat bonuses. Additionally, this item is also a weapon, so there is a WeaponProperties
object with extra information. If the item was not equipable, the EquipmentProperties
property would be None
and the equipable_by_player
would be False
. If the item was not a weapon, the WeaponProperties
key would be None
and the equipable_weapon
would be False
.

Item: JSON Example
A description of the properties that each item in the database can have is useful, but sometimes it is simpler to provide an example. Below is a full example of an item, specifically the Abyssal whip item. Since this item is a type of equipment, there is an equipment
key with combat bonuses. Additionally, this item is also a weapon, so there is a weapon
key with extra information. If the item was not equipable, the equipment
key would be null
and the equipable_by_player
would be false
. If the item was not a weapon, the weapon
key would be null
and the equipable_weapon
would be false
.

The Monster Database
Each monster is represented by Python objects when using the PyPi osrsbox
package, specifically using Python dataclass objects. Additionally, the data is accessible directly by parsing the raw JSON files. There are two types of objects, or classifications of data, that can be used to represent part of an in-game OSRS monster, each outlined in the following subsections.
Monster Properties
A MonsterProperties
object type includes basic monster metadata such as id
, name
, examine
text, combat_level
, attack_speed
and hitpoints
values and slayer association such as slayer_masters
who give this monster as a task. Every monster object in the monster database has all of these properties. If you are parsing the raw JSON files all of these properties are in the root of the JSON document - so they are not nested. All of the properties available are listed in the table below including the property name, the data types used, a description of the property, if the property is required to be populated, and if the property is nullable (able to be set to null

Most monsters in OSRS drop items when they have been defeated (killed). All monster drops are stored in the drops
property in an array containing properties about the item drop. When using the PyPi osrsbox
package, these drops are represented by a list of MonsterDrops
object type. When parsing the raw JSON files, the drops are stored in an array, that are nested under the drops
key. The data included with the monster drops are the item id
, item name
, the drop rarity
, whether the drop is noted
and any drop_requirements
. All of the properties available for item drops are listed in the table below including the property name, the data types used, a description of the property, if the property is required to be populated, and if the property is nullable (able to be set to null
or None
).
Property | Data type | Description | Required | Nullable |

The Prayer Database
Each prayer is represented by Python objects when using the PyPi osrsbox
package, specifically using Python dataclass objects Additionally, the data is accessible directly by parsing the raw JSON files. All prayer data is stored in a single object to represent the properties of an in-game OSRS prayer, which is outlined in the following subsection.
Prayer Properties
A PrayerProperties
object type includes basic prayer metadata such as id
, name
, description
text, drain_per_minute
, requirements
and bonuses
values. Every prayer object in the prayer database has all of these properties. If you are parsing the raw JSON files all of these properties are in the root of the JSON document - so they are not nested. All of the properties available are listed in the table below including the property name, the data types used, a description of the property, if the property is required to be populated, and if the property is nullable (able to be set to null
or None
).
Property | Data type | Description | Required | Nullable |
---|---|---|---|---|
id | integer | Unique prayer ID number. | True | False |
name | string | The name of the prayer. | True | False |
members | boolean | If the prayer is members-only. | True | False |
description | string | The prayer description (as show in-game). | True | False |
drain_per_minute | float | The prayer point drain rate per minute. | True | False |
wiki_url | string | The OSRS Wiki URL. | True | False |
requirements | dict | The stat requirements to use the prayer. | True | False |
bonuses | dict | The bonuses a prayer provides. | True | False |
Prayer: Python Object Example
A description of the properties that each prayer in the database can have is useful, but sometimes it is simpler to provide an example. Below is a full example of a prayer, specifically the Rigour prayer, as loaded in the osrsbox
PyPi Python package.
PrayerProperties(
id=28,
name='Rigour',
members=True,
description='Increases your Ranged attack by 20% and damage by 23%,and your defence by 25%.',
drain_per_minute=40.0,
wiki_url='https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Rigour',
requirements={'prayer': 74, 'defence': 70},
bonuses={'ranged': 20, 'ranged_strength': 25, 'defence': 23})
