Creating A New Player - eyecuelab/walkertreker GitHub Wiki

1. Phone Number & Name Requirements

  • The phone number you input has to be 10 digits
  • The area code has to be a real area code from the US or Canada
  • The rest of the numbers can be whatever you want
  • Phone numbers need to be unique: if the phone number already exists, your sign up will be rejected
  • Names do not have to be unique

2. Postman /APIDoc

You can create a new player, campaign, join a campaign, and run just most API activities from the CURL commands that you will find in the Walkertreker Postman group and the APIdoc. Things to know:

  • They generally have the same information
  • You need to make an account with Postman and be invited to the group
  • The APIdoc is located here

Postman / APIdoc does not handle:

  • Running a random event
  • Running the result of a random event
  • Running end-of-day-update
  • Running a reduce-hunger event

Those are handled by Heroku's CronRunner
