diablo_4_armory_fetcher

Use the unofficial Diablo 4 Armory https://d4armory.io/ to snapshot your characters data, combined with Github actions to fetch and store the data on a schedule

Using this you can track your characters until/if Blizzard create an official API.

Details

Based off of https://github.com/patrickloeber/python-github-action-template for using Github actions to run on a schedule
By default the script is run every twelve hours as specified in .github/workflows/actions.yml. I'd caution against running this too often as it would put a load on the kind folks at d4armory.io

Setup

Find Your Account ID

To find your account id:

Open Diablo IV install directory
Open FenrisDebug.txt
Search for 'account_id'

Register your characters on d4armory.io

Head to https://d4armory.io/
Search for your account using the account_id you fetched from FenrisDebug.txt
Confirm you can see your characters, there may be some latency

Constructing Data History
