API Docs

Template:Apibox top Template:Apibox getting started Template:Apibox referenceTemplate:Apibox bottom The Roll20 API provides a powerful way to customize and enhance your game. Write scripts that tell Roll20 what to do during gameplay (for instance, move a piece, add a status marker to a token, or even roll dice). It's simple and straightforward to get started, but the possibilities are endless.

The API is written using JavaScript, so a foundation in the language is extremely useful to becoming a script writer. However, almost any programming background can give you a leg up on learning to write Roll20 API scripts, and anyone can learn the skills necessary.

The links on the left will lead you to the API's documentation: what functions are available to you, and how to handle the objects returned from them. You also have access to the Underscore.js library.

Include namespaces for your functions and variables, to avoid potential name collisions with other authors.

Use easy, short, readable function and variable names. Names like x1, fe2, and xbqne are practically meaningless. Names like incrementorForMainLoopWhichSpansFromTenToTwenty are overly verbose.

Keep your code legible, especially if you need to ask for help on the forums. Additionally, please write your code in English.

Comments! At the very least, comments describing your configuration variables are helpful to everyone who installs your script.
