Data is not being updated because Arknights gamepress is in the process of migration, and because I have less time to maintain this project.
An API for the mobile gacha tower defense game Arknights hosted on Railway, made as a personal project.
This API queries a MongoDB database filled with data scraped from each operator's page on Gamepress and returns the results to the user. The responses are cached in a Redis database to improve performance.
Images used to be served from cloudinary until a recent spike in usage destroyed my free plan usage, images will serve the original gamepress link in the interim.
You can view the documentation for this API at the Documentation Site.
Add me in Arknights, Scramble#2904.
Use a HTTP client (IE: fetch, axios, requests)
To use this API, you will need to use a HTTP client such as fetch, axios, or requests. The railway version is the current updated version, but cyclic will be maintained on the older version as it connects to the Mongo atlas cluster.
Pass in exclude parameter with keys that you want to exclude (?exclude=talents,voicelines).
| Method | Endpoint | Description/Sample |
|---|---|---|
| GET | https://api.rhodesapi.com/api/operator | Get all operators and their associated information. |
| GET | https://api.rhodesapi.com/api/operator/:name | Get a singular operator and their associated information. |
Pass in e2 parameter to get only the e2 art (?e2=true)
| Method | Endpoint | Description/Sample |
|---|---|---|
| GET | https://api.rhodesapi.com/api/art | Get the art of the specified operator. |
Search operators based on provided query parameters. Supported parameters are:

GET: https://api.rhodesapi.com/api/recruit?tag1=tagone&tag2=tagtwo&tag3=tagthree
Similar to the search query but supports only up to three tags.
This is a personal project made to learn how to create an API and become more familiar with TypeScript syntax. This project was originally written in JavaScript, but was converted to TypeScript.
The data should automatically update itself through a scheduled request to my update route.
Through this project, I became more comfortable using TypeScript and working with large amounts of data in MongoDB. I also gained experience using Docker and Docker Compose for local development, and learned how to cache data with Redis to improve performance.
Used Technologies: Javascript, Typescript, Node.JS, Express, MongoDB/Mongoose, Redis, Cyclic, Docker
Maybe ideally I can grab all the image assets for skills, materials, and etc and store them in a CDN as well.
