Overview ¶

Package wfwiki provides a client for the Warframe Fandom Wiki's module data.

Usage:

import "github.com/obowersa/wfwiki/pkg/modquery"

Construct a new WFWiki client, then use the services on the client to access different representations of the data

client := newWFWiki()

//Get formatted data for a weapon
res, _ := client.GetStats("weapon", "Reaper Prime")
