Description
With MegaFile's "Link-Checker - API" the user gets an easy and comfortable way to represent the current online-state of a file in a forum, a blog or at the users own website. The API can handle a couple of parameters in order for the user to adjust the appearance of the response.

Usage of the API
MegaFile's API usually gets called directly from within the browser either as AJAX-Request or direct call or by being embedded via HTML-Code from a website or via BB-code embedded in a forum. The basic structure of the API does look like this:

https://megafile.biz/API/link_checker/"Link to File"/

"Link to File" has to get replaced with the unique link to the file. You can also let these links get generated from within the Filemanager, this will be alot easier and more comfortable for some users.

Does this link gets called in the browser just like this, there will be shown a simple graphic which represents the online-state of the requested file.

	= File is online
	= File is offline

When you do use the basic structure a PNG-graphic will get replied, this graphic can get embedded via HTML-Code on the users desired website:

<img src="https://megafile.biz/API/link_checker/"Link to File"/">

A forum, most likely, will allow the user to use BB-code rather than HTML-code, so here is a sample for the BB-code:

[IMG]https://megafile.biz/API/link_checker/"Link to File"/[/IMG]

In order to adjust the output of the response, our API needs a couple defined parameters. These parameters are getting to use as followed:

https://megafile.biz/API/link_checker/"Link to File"/?parameter=value

When using multiple parameters, they have to get split apart as followed:

https://megafile.biz/API/link_checker/"Link to File"/?parameter=value&parameter=value

Now following the meaning and values of the defined parameters gets listed:

Parameter	Value	Explanation
size	25, 100	Size of the graphic that shall be replied. The default value is 25, the lowest value is 10 and the highest value is 150 pixel.
background	#FFFFFF	Specification of the background color given as color-code. In case this parameter is not given or not valid the reply will be set to the default value, transparent.
text	-	The parameter "text" does not need a value. Is this parameter given, the output reply will be the online-state in form of text withing the graphic

--- More parameter will be following ---

Usage Guidelines of the API
The API can be used by anyone for free. All parameter the user can define has to be given correct and as expected. In case some given values are not correct the parameter will get thrown away and the default value will get used. In case of any massively requesting of wrong or suspicious looking parameters the account of the requesting user might get blocked from requesting further API-calls!
