API
Custom requests can be constructed in a REST-ful fashion as follows:
http://crackpotbingo.com/TYPE/THEME/ID
Arguments:
/TYPE
The type of card to generate.
Currently valid types are:
| interactive | A CSS and javascript-based, interactive card, useful for playing online. |
| card | A static, image-based card, useful for printing and carrying around, or just to make a point. |
/THEME
The desired theme for the generated card.
Currently valid themes are:
| crank | Physics cranks of any and all sorts. |
| antivaxer | Vaccination effectiveness deniers / conspiracy theorists. |
| creationist | Young-Earth creationists or general evolution deniers. |
| design | "Intelligent Design" creationists. They're SCIENTASTIC! |
| fallacies | Miscellaneous logical fallacies, for use when nothing else applies. Good practice, too. |
| buzzwords | Corporate buzzword speak. Not examples of flawed thinking; just for comedy value. |
| random | Generate a random card from any of the above items. |
Custom bingo cards are also accessed this way, by passing your Theme ID (received upon creating a custom card) as the THEME argument.
/ID
OPTIONAL: A specific ID to generate.
This is useful for regenerating past cards. Range is 1-65536. The current card number for the theme appears at the bottom of each card.
If an invalid or out of range card id is passed, it is silently ignored.
Return Value:
Upon success, you will receive your card, in either HTML, or an image of typeimage/png
If there is an error, you will receive one of the following HTTP error codes:
| 400 | Bad Request. You entered an invalid theme or ID outside the range of 1-65536. |
