API Integration Best Practices

Follow these best practices when integrating with the Pulsery API to ensure optimal performance and reliability:

​
Error Handling

Always implement proper error handling in your API requests. The Pulsery API returns standard HTTP status codes along with detailed error messages in the response body. 
fetch('https://api.pulsery.live/api/exploits')
  .then(response => {
    if (!response.ok) {
      // Convert non-2xx HTTP responses into errors
      return response.json().then(errorData => {
        throw new Error(errorData.message || 'Unknown error occurred');
      });
    }
    return response.json();
  })
  .then(data => {
    // Handle successful response
    console.log(data);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    // Handle errors
    console.error('API Error:', error.message);
    // Show user-friendly error message
  });

​
Caching Responses

To improve performance and reduce load on our servers, consider caching API responses when appropriate: 
// Simple in-memory cache
const cache = new Map();
const CACHE_TTL = 60000; // 1 minute in milliseconds

async function fetchWithCache(url) {
  const now = Date.now();
  const cacheKey = url;
  
  // Check if we have a cached response that's still valid
  if (cache.has(cacheKey)) {
    const { data, timestamp } = cache.get(cacheKey);
    if (now - timestamp < CACHE_TTL) {
      console.log('Using cached data');
      return data;
    }
  }
  
  // Fetch fresh data
  console.log('Fetching fresh data');
  const response = await fetch(url);
  const data = await response.json();
  
  // Cache the response
  cache.set(cacheKey, { data, timestamp: now });
  
  return data;
}

// Usage
fetchWithCache('https://api.pulsery.live/api/exploits')
  .then(data => console.log(data))
  .catch(error => console.error('Error:', error));

​
Webhooks (Coming Soon)

Pulsery will soon offer webhooks to notify your application of events in real-time. This will allow you to receive updates when:
  • New exploits are added
  • Exploit status changes
  • Version updates occur
Stay tuned for more information on webhook integration.

​
Rate Limiting Considerations

While Pulsery doesn’t currently implement strict rate limiting, we recommend implementing reasonable request patterns to ensure API stability:
  • Implement caching as described above
  • Avoid making unnecessary duplicate requests
  • Consider using batch requests when possible
  • Implement exponential backoff for retries

​
Example Applications

Here are some examples of how you can use the Pulsery API in your applications:
Create a dashboard that displays the status of all exploits, with real-time updates when statuses change.Key features:
  • Visual indicators for exploit status
  • Filtering by platform, type, and status
  • Detailed view for each exploit
Build a notification system that alerts users when new versions are available.Key features:
  • Email or push notifications for version changes
  • Customizable notification preferences
  • Version history tracking
Develop a mobile app that provides easy access to exploit information on the go.Key features:
  • Mobile-optimized interface
  • Offline caching of exploit data
  • Push notifications for status changes
