Reduce Riot API Calls Across the App #5

Closed RikiBorders closed 1 year ago

RikiBorders commented 1 year ago

Refactor the system to limit the amount of riot api calls we make. Aim to make 3 maximum, all done when a player's page is laoded:

one to account one to summoner one to match

Also, find a way to remove the constraint of the search engine querying the Riot API. I feel this can be exploited by web scrapers to run up the api calls and disable the website. If this can't be done, then add protections against spam

Ran into rate-limit issues today - Ended up having to reduce the match history fetching feature down to about 5 matches.

closing this issue as limiting api calls will be handled by creating a new script to constantly fetch and cache new matches
