A simple tool for Python 2.7 to help you find people to trade with. Launch with '-h' to get help.

If you don't have an API key, get one here: http://steamcommunity.com//dev/apikey

Some useful item classes to filter out:

tf_wearable hats, badges etc tool paint, tags etc craft_item, class_token, slot_token pretty obvious supply_crate ditto

Feel free to use this code to write a GUI/WebUI. You'll probably want to use the following functions:

get_potential_trades( player_steamid64, friend_steamid64s = [], filters = [], language = 'en', player_name = '', friend_names = defaultdict(str) )

Iterates through player's friends and yields potential trades for each their Steam friends.

Arguments:

player_steamid64 (int) Player's 64-bit SteamID friend_steamid64s (list of int) Will override the friend list that would be loaded automatically. Useful if you only want to look at online friends, for example. filters (list of str) Item classes to filter out language (str) If not provided, will load English schema if it's not loaded yet. Specify a different language if you only want a localized schema. language = '' will load untranslated string tokens. player_name (str) Provide if you want console output when player's backpack is loaded. friend_names Dictionary structured as { steamid64 : name } Provide if you want console output whenever a friend's backpack is loaded.

Return value: Yields a nested tuple of type ( friend_steamid64, ( [ items player can give the friend ] , [ items friend can give the player ] ) )

get_player_summaries(steamid64s, online_only = False)

Wrapper around GetPlayerSummaries from Steam WebAPI.

Arguments:

steamid64s List of 64-bit SteamIDs online_only Will filter out offline players

Return value: A list of dictionaries as described here http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_Web_API#GetPlayerSummaries_.28v0002.29

query_schema(language = 'en') Returns a schema in the given language as a dictionary. The data returned is described here http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/WebAPI/GetSchema#Result_Data Will load and store the schema if it's not loaded yet. Avoid accessing SCHEMAS directly, except to back up or restore all schemas at once.

Don't forget to set the global variable API_KEY to your API key.
