This is a BlackSheep site that lets you search TF2 items and find the ones you want. There are two main ways to search - you can either use regular keyword search or search by classes and item tags (eg. weapon, misc, hat, etc.). Once you find an item you want, you can get all kinds of information about it such as its store price, market price and crafting recipes to help you obtain it. You can also search for item sets or view a list of them by typing 'sets'.
Copy config.default.py to config.py and fill in your API keys in the file.
Run this command to install dependencies.
pip install -r requirements.txt
You'll also need to install the Redis server.
Run updatestore.py to update the Redis cache. Then, run uvicorn main:app.
To host the site in FreeBSD 13, first clone into /usr/local/www/item.tf.
Then, run the following as root:
pkg install -y nginx python311 redis
mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d
echo 'nginx_enable="YES"' > /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d/nginx
echo 'redis_enable="YES"' > /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d/redis
cd /usr/local/www/item.tf
make install
Make sure you set the ssl_certificate and ssl_certificate_key directives
and have include conf.d/item.tf.conf; at the end of the http block in
/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf.
There are three main files:
- main.py - Contains the page handlers
- tf2api.py - Contains the main functions for getting items, store prices, market prices and other information.
- tf2search.py - Contains the parsing and search functions.
tf2api.py (depends on aiohttp) was designed to be used either for this project or separately. It contains many helpful functions to get information about items in TF2.
Example:
import sys
import asyncio
import tf2api
async def main():
apikey = sys.argv[1]
schema = await tf2api.getschema(apikey)
items = tf2api.getitems(schema)
itemsbyname = tf2api.getitemsbyname(schema)
pan = items[264] # 264 is the defindex of the item, Or:
pan = itemsbyname['Frying Pan']
print(tf2api.getitemclasses(pan))
# ['Scout', 'Soldier', 'Pyro', 'Demoman', 'Heavy', 'Medic', 'Sniper']
print(tf2api.getitemtags(pan))
# ['weapon', 'melee']
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())This project was inspired by and depends on the great TF2 community to function, so a special thanks to the following:
