Public API Support for the Armory

Describe your feature request or suggestion in detail

Hi @r-o-b-o-t-o 👋

First of all, thank you for your work on this awesome project!

I’ve been exploring the AzerothCore Armory and noticed that while data is dynamically loaded via internal endpoints, there’s currently no official documentation or support for public APIs.

It would be super helpful for developers who want to:

• Access character or guild data
• Build tools, dashboards, or bots
• Track rankings or gear automatically

Some endpoints already seem to exist (e.g. /armory-frame/search, /data/character/...), but they are undocumented and not officially supported.

Would it be possible to expose and document a minimal set of public API endpoints? Even a basic, read-only version would be a great resource for the community.

As a reference, Blizzard offers something similar with their [WoW Profile APIs]

Thanks again for your work! 🙏

(actually i'm playing on CC)

Just a question, would the acore rest api project possibly be a better contender?
Asking because it seems like it is purpose built as a rest api for acore, and already has some auth stuff built in that we'd need for generating keys for profile apis that the armory doesn't currently do.

That also looks like it's built in typescript, so is probably at least fairly modern.

If it makes sense to do it here, that's fine, we can give it a shot, but just wondering.
