*
* This is a simple example on how to use the Blog API. It fetches the data and outputs every post in a unordered list. The Blog API is used for services that might need to show the LaunchShop news, so it's mostly an internal API, but we decided to share it with y'all.
* @package Bob-omb
* @author fin
* @version 1.0.0
*/
$posts = json_decode(file_get_contents('http://api.ftolnks.xyz/bobomb/Blog'), true) ?? [];
if ($posts) {
echo "<ul>";
foreach ($posts as $post) {
echo "<li><strong>" . htmlspecialchars($post['name']) . "</strong> (" . htmlspecialchars($post['date']) . "): " . htmlspecialchars($post['text']) . "</li>";
}
echo "</ul>";
} else {
echo "No blog posts found.";
}
?>
