PokeGOAPI-Java

Pokemon GO Java API

See this guide for adding functionality: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BE8O6Z19sQ54T5T7QauXgA11GbL6D9vx9AAMCM5KlRA

❗

This API may seem unstable. This is because the backend Pokemon GO servers are unstable.

In case stuff is not working as expected, wait a moment to see if the problem resolves itself automatically.

You may also check the status of the servers on IsPokemonGoDownOrNot.com or MMOServerStatus.com.

If you just want to use it, wait some days until the server issues are resolved (or if there is a problem with this library, you may fix it and send a PR this way).

Build

• Clone the repo and cd into the folder
• git submodule update --init
• compile and package
• ./gradlew build bundle
• you should have the api bundled in build/libs/PokeGOAPI-Java_bundle-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

PS : To Eclipse user, you must build once : ./gradlew build and add the generated java class for proto into eclipse source path : Right click on the project > Build path > Configure Build Path > Source > Add Folder > Select build/generated/source/proto/main/java > Finish

Usage

Include the API as jar from your own build, or use Maven/Gradle/SBT/Leiningen: https://jitpack.io/#Grover-c13/PokeGOAPI-Java/master-SNAPSHOT

Mostly everything is accessed through the PokemonGo class in the API package.

The constructor of PokemonGo class requires a AuthInfo object which can be obtained from GoogleLogin().login or PtcLogin().login, and a OkHttpClient object.

EG:

OkHttpClient httpClient = new OkHttpClient();
//Use Google
//First Ever Login. Persist info when you recieve callback
//This is the code that will be used when you first login. This step will prompt you to register your device with Google (check your console or logcat) via a URL and to enter in a code. Once the device is registered by you, the httpClient will then issue you an oAuth token.
PokemonGo go = new PokemonGo(new GoogleCredentialProvider(httpClient,listener),httpClient);
//Subsequently.
//This is what you will use to refresh your oAuth Token. Since your device is already registered with Google, you will not need to register it again.
PokemonGo go = new PokemonGo(new GoogleCredentialProvider(httpClient,refreshToken),httpClient);
//Or use PTC
PokemonGo go = new PokemonGo(new PtcCredentialProvider(httpClient,username,password),httpClient);
Log.v(go.getPlayerProfile());

##Android Dev FAQ

• I can't use the sample code! It just throws a login exception!

You're running the sample code on the UI thread. Strict mode policy will throw an exception in that case and its being caught by the network client and treating it as a login failed exception. Run the sample code on a background thread in AsyncTask or RXJava and it will work.

• I want to submit a refactor so that this library will use Google Volley

This library is meant to be a Java implementation of the API. Google Volley is specific to Android and should not be introduced in this library. However, if you still want to refactor it, you should create it as a separate project.

• How can I use Android's native Google sign in with this library?

You can't. The Google Identity Platform uses the SHA1 fingerprint and package name to authenticate the caller of all sign in requests. This means that Niantic would need to add your app's SHA1 fingerprint and package name to their Google API Console. If you ever requested a Google Maps API key, you went through the same process. An alternative would be using a WebView to access the web based OAuth flow. This will work with the client ID and secret provided by this library.
