armory-embeds
Guild Wars 2 Armory is arming the GW2 community with powered up embeds for items, skills, and more.
Want something more low level? Want to integrate directly with your React app instead of this high level abstraction?
Check out the armory-ui-components
library.
Usage
First add the embeds to your html:
Then add the embed script after them:
When the document has fully loaded the embeds will then be loaded.
Note the semvar range. When breaking changes are introduced, this will be incremented by one every time. For example from @^0.x.x
to @^1.x.x
.
Supplementary Libraries
- armory-embeds-chat-codes - parses an ingame chat code to armory embed markup.
Options
Global Settings
Entirely optional.
Create an object on the document object named GW2A_EMBED_OPTIONS
. See below for an example.
Make sure the assign this config before declaring the gw2a
script.

---|---|---|---|
lang | string | no | The language the embeds will be loaded in. Supported values are: en, fr, de, es, zh, ru |
persistToLocalStorage | boolean | no | Turns data persistence on or off. Default to true. |

documentGW2A_EMBED_OPTIONS = lang: 'en' persistToLocalStorage: true forceCacheClearOnNextRun: '1';
Styles
Each embed has a class that you can target, each class follows the pattern .gw2a-{EMBED_NAME}-embed
.

Finding IDs
Unfortunately you can't pass the embeds the item/skill etc names. You have to pass the specific ids.
Item IDs
Item IDs are easy enough, go look at https://www.gw2spidy.com.
Skill/Trait/Specialization IDs
Best bet is to look at the GW2 Wiki, for example: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Virtue_of_Justice.
