agario-client

Node.js client for agar.io with API.

Outdated!

Agar developers made completely new code for game. Now code runs inside virtual machine that I can not reverse-engineer due to lack of knowledge and experience. Unfortunately its time to say goodbye to agario-client. Initial idea of agario-client was for me to learn websockets, binary protocols, reverse-engineering, github and have fun overall. I believe that I achieved all that. Thanks to all, it was great time!

Instructions

Install Node.js
Install client using npm install agario-client (ignore python errors)
Run node ./node_modules/agario-client/examples/basic.js (for testing purpose)
If it works, you're ready to look at API and code

API

There are two types of object that have API:

Client - thing that connects to agar.io server and talks to it. If you want to spawn and control your Ball, you need to talk with Client
Ball - thing that Client creates. Everything in game is Balls (viruses/food/players...). You can't control Balls objects, only observe what they do.

Both objects have same methods for events from events.EventEmitter:

.on('eventName', callback) attach listener to event
.once('eventName', callback) attach listener to event but execute only once
.removeListener('eventName', callback) remove listener from event
.removeAllListeners('eventName') remove all listeners from event
.emit('eventName', p1, p2...) emit your own event
check more in documentation

Client API

var AgarioClient = require('agario-client');
var client = new AgarioClient(client_name);

client_name is string for client that will be used for logging (if you enable it). It's not your ball name.

Client properties

Properties that you can change:

client.debug debug level. 0-5. 0 is completely silent. 5 is super verbose. Default: 1
client.server address that was used in client.connect() call
client.key key that was used in client.connect() call
client.auth_token token to login. See how to get token in additional info.
client.agent agent to use for connection. Check additional info.
client.local_address local interface to bind to for network connections (IP address of interface)
client.headers object with headers for WebSocket connection. Default: {'Origin':'http://agar.io'}
client.inactive_destroy time in ms for how long ball will live in memory after his last known action (if player exit from game or ball eaten outside our field of view, we will not know it since server sends action only about field that you see. Original code destroy() Ball when he disappear from field of view. You can do that in client.on('ballDisappear') if you want it for some reason). Default: 5*60*1000 (5 minutes)
client.inactive_check time in ms for time interval that search and destroy inactive Balls. Default: 10*1000 (10 seconds)
client.spawn_attempts how much we need try spawn before disconnect (made for unstable spawn on official servers). Default: 25
client.spawn_interval time in ms between spawn attempts. Default: 200

Properties that better not to change or you can break something:

client.balls object with all Balls that client knows about. Access Ball like client.balls[ball_id]
client.my_balls array of alive Ball's IDs that client owns and can control.
client.score personal score since spawn
client.leaders array of leader's Balls IDs in FFA mode. (player can have lots of Balls, but sever sends only one ID of one Ball)
client.teams_scores array of team's scores in teams mode
client.client_name name that you have set for client (not nickname)
client.tick_counter number of tick packets received (i call them ticks because they contains information about eating/movement/size/disappear... of Balls)

Client methods

client.connect(server, key) connect to agar.io server. Check Servers part in this readme to see how to get server IP and key. ProTip: each server have few rooms (if it is not party), so you may need connect few times before you will get in room that you want (but you need new key each time and agar.io can ban your IP for flooding with requests). You can look client.once('leaderBoardUpdate') to know if you're connected to correct room
client.disconnect() disconnect from server
client.spawn(name) will spawn Ball with nickname. client.on('myNewBall') will be called when server sends our Ball info. Will return false if connection is not established.
client.spectate() will activate spectating mode. Look at client.on('spectateFieldUpdate') for FOV updates. Will return false if connection is not established.
client.spectateModeToggle() switching spectate mode in spectating mode (Q key in official client). Use client.moveTo() to move your "camera" around. Look at client.on('spectateFieldUpdate') for movement updates. Will return false if connection is not established.
client.moveTo(x,y) send move command. x and y is numbers where you want to move. Coordinates (size) of map you can get in client.on('mapSizeLoad'). Your Balls will move to coordinates you specified until you send new coordinates to move. Original source code do this every 100ms (10 times in second) and before split and eject. Will return false if connection is not established.
client.split() will split your Balls in two. Ball will be ejected in last direction that you sent with client.moveTo(). client.on('myNewBall') will be called when server sends our Balls info. Will return false if connection is not established.
client.eject() will eject some mass from your Balls. Mass will be ejected in last direction that you sent with client.moveTo(). Ejected mass is Ball too (but we don't own them). So client.on('ballAppear') will be called when server sends ejected mass Balls info. Will return false if connection is not established.

Client events

In this list on.eventName(param1, param2) means you need to do client.on('eventName', function(param1, param2) { ... })

on.connecting() connecting to server
on.connected() connected to server and ready to spawn
on.connectionError(err) connection error
on.disconnect() disconnected
on.message(packet) new packet received from server (check packet.js)
on.myNewBall(ball_id) my new Ball created (spawn/split/explode...)
on.somebodyAteSomething(eater_id, eaten_id) somebody ate something
on.scoreUpdate(old_score, new_score) personal score updated
on.leaderBoardUpdate(old_highlights, new_highlights, old_names, new_names) leaders update in FFA mode. names is array of nicknames of leaders and highlights is array of numbers 0 or 1 corresponded to names where 1 means nickname should be highlighted in leader board (for example your nickname)
on.teamsScoresUpdate(old_scores, new_scores) array of teams scores update in teams mode
on.mapSizeLoad(min_x, min_y, max_x, max_y) map size update (as update 16.02.2016 this called then new virtual size of map received)
on.reset() when we delete all Balls and stop timers (connection lost?)
on.winner(ball_id) somebody won and server going for restart
on.ballAction(ball_id, coordinate_x, coordinate_y, size, is_virus, nick) some action about some Ball
on.ballAppear(ball_id) Ball appear on "screen" (field of view)
on.ballDisappear(ball_id) Ball disappear from "screen" (field of view)
on.ballDestroy(ball_id, reason) Ball deleted (check reasons at the bottom of this document)
on.mineBallDestroy(ball_id, reason) mine (your) Ball deleted (check reasons at the bottom of this document)
on.lostMyBalls() all mine Balls destroyed/eaten
on.merge(destroyed_ball_id) mine two Balls connects into one
on.ballMove(ball_id, old_x, old_y, new_x, new_y) Ball move
on.ballResize(ball_id, old_size, new_size) Ball resize
on.ballRename(ball_id, old_name, new_name) Ball set name/change name/we discover name
on.ballUpdate(ball_id, old_update_time, new_update_time) new data about ball received
on.spectateFieldUpdate(cord_x, cord_y, zoom_level) coordinates of field of view in client.spectate() mode
on.experienceUpdate(level, current_exp, need_exp) experience information update (if logined with auth token)
on.packetError(packet, err, preventCrash) unable to parse packet. It can mean that agar changed protocol or issue #46. By default client will crash. But if you sure this is not protocol change and it don't need new issue then you need to call preventCrash() before callback execution ends. I highly recommend to disconnect client if this error happens.
on.debugLine(line_x, line_y) the server sometimes sends a line for the client to render from your ball to the point though don't expect to see it.
on.gotLogin() server authorized you. Missing in original code, check issue 94
on.logoutRequest() server forces client to call window.logout()

Ball API

var ball = client.balls[ball_id]; ball_id is number that you can get from events

Ball properties

Properties that you can change:

None. But you can create properties that don't exists for your needs if you want

Properties that better not to change or you can break something:

ball.id ID of Ball (number)
ball.name nickname of player that own the Ball
ball.x last known X coordinate of Ball (if ball.visible is true then its current coordinate)
ball.y last known Y coordinate of Ball (if ball.visible is true then its current coordinate)
ball.size last known size of Ball (if ball.visible is true then its current size)
ball.mass mass of ball calculated from ball.size
ball.color string with color of Ball
ball.virus if true then ball is a virus (green thing that explode big balls)
ball.mine if true then we do own this Ball
ball.client Client that knows this Ball (if not ball.destroyed)
ball.destroyed if true then this Ball no more exists, forget about it
ball.visible if true then we see this Ball on our "screen" (field of view)
ball.last_update timestamp when we last saw this Ball
ball.update_tick last tick when we saw this Ball

Ball methods

ball.toString() will return ball.id and (ball.name) if set. So you can log ball directly
Other methods is for internal use

Ball events

In this list on.eventName(param1, param2) means you need to do ball.on('eventName', function(param1, param2) { ... })

on.destroy(reason) Ball deleted (check reasons at the bottom of this document)
on.move(old_x, old_y, new_x, new_y) Ball move
on.resize(old_size, new_size) Ball resize
on.update(old_time, new_time) new data about Ball received
on.rename(old_name, new_name) Ball change/set name/we discover name
on.appear() Ball appear on "screen" (field of view)
on.disappear() Ball disappear from "screen" (field of view)

Servers

When you do var AgarioClient = require('agario-client'); you can access AgarioClient.servers Functions need opt as options object and cb as callback function.

Servers options

All functions can accept: opt.agent to use for connection. Check additional info opt.local_address local interface to bind to for network connections (IP address of interface) opt.resolve set to true to resolve IP on client side (since SOCKS4 can't accept domain names) opt.ip if you resolved m.agar.ip IP by other way (will cancel opt.resolve).

servers.getFFAServer(opt, cb) to request FFA server.
Needs opt.region
servers.getTeamsServer(opt, cb) to request teams server.
Needs opt.region
servers.getExperimentalServer(opt, cb) to request experimental server.
Needs opt.region
Use at your own risk! Support of experimental servers are not guaranteed by agario-client!
servers.getPartyServer(opt, cb) to request party server.
Needs opt.party_key
servers.createParty(opt, cb) to request party server.
Needs opt.region

Check region list below in this file.

Servers callbacks

Callback will be called with single object that can contain:

server - server's IP:PORT (add ws:// before passing to connect())
key - server's key
error - error code (WRONG_HTTP_CODE/WRONG_DATA_FORMAT/REQUEST_ERROR/LOOKUP_FAIL)
error_source - error object passed from req.on.error when available (for example when REQUEST_ERROR happens)
res - response object when available (for example when WRONG_HTTP_CODE happens)
data - response data string when available (for example when WRONG_DATA_FORMAT happens)

LOOKUP_FAIL can happen only if opt.lookup was set to true and will have only error_source

You can check how examples/basic.js uses this.

Ball destroy reasons list

{'reason': 'reset'} when client destroys everything (connection lost?)
{'reason': 'inactive'} when we didn't saw Ball for client.inactive_destroy ms
{'reason': 'eaten', 'by': ball_id} when Ball got eaten
{'reason': 'merge'} when our Ball merges with our other Ball
{'reason': 'server-forced'} when server commands to delete all balls

Auth token

To login into your account you need to request token. You can check example in examples/auth_token.js First create new AgarioClient.Account

var account = new AgarioClient.Account();

Then you need to login through facebook on http://agar.io then go to http://www.facebook.com/ and get cookies c_user,datr,xs. Here is list of properties of account:

account.c_user - set to cookie "c_user" from http://www.facebook.com/
account.datr - set to cookie "datr" from http://www.facebook.com/
account.xs - set to cookie "xs" from http://www.facebook.com/
account.agent - agent for connection. Tests shows that you can request token from any IP and then use it on any IP so you don't need SOCKS/Proxy.
account.debug - set 1 to show warnings, otherwise 0. Default: 1
account.token_expire - contains timestamp in milliseconds when token will expire. Tokens are valid for 1-2 hours. If (+new Date)>account.token_expire then you need to request new token and use it in new connection to agar.

Then you call

account.requestFBToken(function(token, info) {
	//If you have `token` then you can set it to `client.auth_token` 
    // and `client.connect()` to agar server
});

If token is null, then something went wrong. Check info which can contain:

info.error - Error of connection error
info.res - response's http.IncomingMessage object
info.data - content of page

SOCKS/Proxy support

You can change default agent for AgarioClient and AgarioClient.servers to use for connections. You can use libs to do it. For testing and example i used socks lib. Execute node ./node_modules/agario-client/examples/socks.js to test it and read examples/socks.js file to see how to use SOCKS. For proxy you will need to use some other lib.

Adding properties/events

You can add your own properties/events to clients/balls. var AgarioClient = require('agario-client');

Prototype of Client is located at AgarioClient.prototype.
Prototype of Ball is located at AgarioClient.Ball.prototype.

For example:

AgarioClient.Ball.prototype.isMyFriend = function() { ... };  //to call ball.isMyFriend()
AgarioClient.prototype.addFriend = function(ball_id) { ... }; //to call client.addFriend(1234)

Events:

client.on('somebodyAteSomething', function(eater_id, eaten_id) {  #eat event
    if(client.balls[eaten_id].isMyFriend()) { //if this is my friend
        client.emit('friendEaten', eater_id, eaten_id); //emit custom event
    }
});
client.on('friendEaten', function(eater_id, friend_id) { //on friend eaten
    client.log('My friend got eaten!');
});
