GW2 API Integration to ChromaSDK

Hello,

Lets be honest, im quite new and have not fully reviewed the GW2 API. however, i have already different usecases in mind to use together with ChromaSDK. Idea is to have different data from GW2 translated to lights and dynamics for Razer Peripherals.

Such as :
Lights for HP Bar
Lights for Individual Cooldowns
Lights for Chat Notification
Lights for Boons
Etc

Would it be possible to get the following atleast within the current API.
Percentage of HP
Time for Cooldowns
Notifications from Different Chat
Boons currently active

Not really, no. Due to technical constraints, the data received by the web API can be up to 5 minutes stale (e.g., it’s reading player data from the database rather than the map server which only writes back periodically, not in realtime). Eventually I’d like to have a system whereby you could get this data directly from the client (and we have some data available locally), but that’s a long ways out. Sorry :<
