twitch offline channel info check #250531 19/01/15 07:21 PM

Anubisxhades A	I found this code http://pastebin.com/Y5jWXTZa# which takes info from https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/$2 I personally want to find a way to grab just the game info from https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/$2 This way I can get the game info while the channel is offline. The script is a bit over my head(mainly the json parsing) so I was hoping one of the many brilliant coders over here could help. Also the original script is by ^WeSt.http://hawkee.com/snippet/16087/ Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou. Last edited by Anubisxhades; 19/01/15 07:57 PM.

Anubisxhades A	The issue with taking the info from the streams part of the api rather than the channels part of the api is that the info is only available in 'streams' when the channel in question is online. Do you think just changing it to: Code: alias game { JSONOpen -du game https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/ $+ $1- echo -a Game: $json(game,stream,game) } would work?
