Factoriodex API
A game data API made for the game Factorio, by Wube Software LTD.
Factoriodex
Key Features
- Hundreds of game data records.
- No API keys required and CORS support.
- Querying by a variety of parameters to get specific game data.
Project Overview
This project is a read-only RESTful API developed using Node.js and Express, hosted on Railway, which provides data from a MongoDB database on Factorio game elements. It supports CORS for secure cross-origin requests and serves static content efficiently.
Why a Factorio API?
The Factorio API was created to address the absence of a simple, queryable interface for the game's data, as existing APIs are tailored for modding and lack user-friendly data access. This API provides a straightforward, RESTful interface for efficiently retrieving Factorio data.
API Showcase & Demonstration
