The BarfAndBel.ch API

Parameters

Want a little more control? You can use these parameters to specify what exactly you want:

Parameter	What it does	Example
`id`	Shows just that one specific quote, all the time.	?id=6
`quotee`	The quotee is the person/character that got quoted. You'll get quotes they said.	?quotee=Hiccup
`source`	Source of the quote. This will make it so you get quotes exclusively from that source. This is only for series/movies. Not for episodes. Use `?episode` for that.	?source=Race To The Edge
`episode`	Episode source of the quote. This will get quotes exclusively for that episode. Only for episodes, not for series/movies. Use `?source` for that.	?episode=The Eel Effect
`user`	Quotes submitted by a specific user. Will only show quotes that the specified user has submitted (and got accepted).	?user=1
`order`	Will order the API request by the data you want. Can order by anything the API gives back (e.g. id, quotee). If not specified, will give back quotes in random order.	?order=quotee
`maxlength`	Limits the length of quotes. Gives back quotes that only have less than the specified amount of characters in the quote.	?maxlength=20
`maxamount`	Limits the amount of quotes given back. If not specified, API will give back all matching quotes.	?maxamount=10

Source parameter might change - New database system might make sources based on IDs instead of names directly in the quotes table. If your integration breaks, check back on this page.
A single quote is one JSON object, multiple JSON object array - If you add parameters, you'll get a response with an array, so that multiple quotes may be given with one request. This includes requests with the ?maxamount=1 or ?id= parameters. If a request is made with no parameters, you'll get back a JSON string with no array.
Errors are no JSON - Error messages are not encoded into JSON. These are just strings that will be given back.
