[Gametize Tech] API: Platform Mode Support Summary

The Gametize application (React JS/Flutter) is designed with Package-Level architecture in mind. However, there are needs for a Platform-Level application (i.e. Gametize.com app) and to support such application, we have decided to implement Platform-Mode Support.

Platform-Mode Benefits

• Gametize application to stay as a Package-Level “container”.

• Gametize application does not need customisation or custom configuration implementation.

Limitations

• A Gametize platform can only support a single Platform-Mode application.

• Platform-Mode is mostly applied to functions that are required in Gametize application home screen/page.

Configuring Platform-Mode

Platform-Mode for a given application can be configured in Config.java. Specify the Package ID that the application API Key is associated with in DASHBOARD_PLATFORM_MODE_PACKAGE_ID.

/*
 * PLATFORM MODE
 * To allow certain package ID and relevant API end-points to account for platform data
 */
public static int DASHBOARD_PLATFORM_MODE_PACKAGE_ID = ***;

Supporting APIs

Platform-Mode is only supported in api2.

Non-Package Level API

NOTE: For Platform-Mode to work, package_id has to be supplied.

user/ID/achievements.json (Return platform-wide achievements list)
user/ID/dashboard.json (Return platform-wide meta-data)
user/ID/projects.json (Return platform-wide joined projects list)
notifications.json (Return platform-wide notifications list)
notifications/unread.json ((Return platform-wide notifications unread count)

Package Level API
