I saw some IRC bot repository in github using this api
made from
https://beta.decapi.me/twitch/uptime/channel_name(as string)
but in twitch dev forums people are seems to be not using this API
(instead of recommending justintv API)
is there are any reason? or there are could be a problem using this?
It seems like it’s just trimming API requests from Twitch APIv5
To get uptime
use webhooks
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/webhooks-guide
That’ll give you the start time, then just subtract start from now
Or the streams API:
That’ll give you “started_at” and then just subtract start from now
No need to rely on someone else’s API when you can can the answer from Twitch to start with.
Calling their API limits you to their formatting, when if you call Twitch directly you can format the response how you want.
