py-epic 0.1.0

HTTP wrapper for the Epic/Fortnite APIs.

Still in early development.

PyEpic

An asynchronous, object-oriented API wrapper for the Epic/Fortnite HTTP services, written in Python.

Key Features

• Use of the asyncio framework to handle many IO-bound tasks concurrently.
• Automatic, configurable rate limit handling and caching.
• Optimised for speed and memory.

Installing

Python 3.10 or higher is required. For project dependencies, see requirements.txt.

It is recommended to install the library within a virtual environment instead of the global Python installation.

# Windows
py -m pip install py-epic

#Linux/MacOS
python3 -m pip install py-epic

Basic Example

import asyncio
import pyepic


async def main():
    async with pyepic.HTTPClient() as client:
        auth_code = input(f'Enter authorization code from {client.user_auth_path} here: ')

        async with client.create_auth_session(auth_code) as auth_session:
            account = await auth_session.account()

            print(f'Logged in as: {account}')


asyncio.run(main())

Notes

• PyEpic does not currently support Epic Games' XMPP services. This includes real-time in-game events such as party invites or whispers.

Disclaimers

• The APIs that PyEpic interacts with are not officially documented, nor are they intended to be used outside the official clients. As a result, the package could experience major breaking changes (or stop working!) at any moment.
