}About the robertsspaceindustries.com API
The Roberts Space Industries API exposes 5 endpoints covering Star Citizen's Pledge Store ship catalog, manufacturer listings, live crowdfunding statistics, and the Spectrum community Message of the Day. The get_ships endpoint returns up to 100 ships with fields like msrp, productionStatus, and purchasable, while get_crowdfund_stats delivers real-time backer counts, total funds raised in cents, and a 7-day daily contribution chart.
Ship Catalog and Manufacturers
The get_ships endpoint returns an array of ships currently listed in the RSI Pledge Store, each with id, name, slug, msrp (in cents), purchasable (boolean), and productionStatus. A total integer indicates the full count of available ships. To retrieve deeper data on a specific ship, pass its slug — obtainable from get_ships — to get_ship_detail, which adds manufacturer (an object with name) and paints (an array of available paint options). The get_ship_manufacturers endpoint returns a flat array of manufacturer objects with id and name, useful for building filters or cross-referencing manufacturer identities against ship records.
Crowdfunding Statistics
The get_crowdfund_stats endpoint returns live campaign data: fans (total backer count as an integer), funds (total raised in cents), alpha_slots_left, and a chart object containing daily gross contribution figures for the last 7 days. The fleet field is present but may be null. A success field equal to 1 confirms a valid upstream response. This endpoint requires no inputs and reflects the current live totals as displayed on the RSI website.
Spectrum Message of the Day
The get_motd endpoint retrieves the current Message of the Day from RSI's Spectrum community lobby. The response includes a motd object with a message string and a last_modified Unix timestamp, making it straightforward to detect when the message was last updated. Like get_crowdfund_stats, it takes no input parameters and returns a success integer to indicate response validity.
- Display live Star Citizen crowdfunding milestones (fans, funds, 7-day chart) on a community dashboard.
- Build a ship comparison tool using msrp, productionStatus, and purchasable fields from get_ships.
- Populate a ship database with manufacturer attribution by joining get_ship_manufacturers with get_ship_detail results.
- Alert fans when the Spectrum MOTD changes by polling get_motd and comparing last_modified timestamps.
- Track alpha_slots_left to monitor campaign availability over time.
- Generate a filterable Pledge Store catalog showing only purchasable ships grouped by manufacturer.
- Visualize daily backer contribution trends using the chart data returned by get_crowdfund_stats.
