Nord API problems with "server load", "all vpn servers", etc #6
Comments
|
May be able to use: https://api.nordvpn.com/v1/servers?limit=0 |
|
To produce a simple list of hostnames this seems to work OK: I haven't yet found a way to query the active server load (without downloading the 20MB json). |

API problems. Since 2024/03/05 there have been problems using the (now deprecated) Nord Public API, for example "server load" is reporting "null%". #6 If anyone knows how to query the active server load please add your comments. Thanks! function nordapi_menu - some functions are not working. function allservers_menu - all functions should be working again. "nordserversfile" is now the 20MB .json of all the NordVPN servers. An additional .txt file with just the server hostnames will be created in the same directory. function group_connect - added the "Dedicated_IP" server group. Can be used to test the group in a particular region before purchasing a Dedicated IP. If you already have a Dedicated IP you can specify your server to automatically change settings and connect to it via the "Group" menu. function country_names - Shorten some country names so the menu fits better in the terminal window. Can skip this function if preferred. function heading - better handling of ascii fonts based on current terminal width. NordVPN has added virtual servers: https://nordvpn.com/blog/new-nordvpn-virtual-servers/ Countries listed in the "nordvirtual" array will be labelled as (Virtual). This list is subject to change and the array must be updated manually. function city_count - mark virtual countries with an asterix (*).

"Server load" is still broken. If anyone knows how to query https://api.nordvpn.com/v1/servers by the VPN hostname and retrieve the server load please add your comments to this issue: #6 Thanks! Added customization option 'shortcountries' = Abbreviate long country names so the 'Countries' menu fits better in the terminal window. Choose "y" or "n", default is "y". function city_count - (Tools - NordVPN API - All Cities) added a list of "Virtual Countries and Cities" for the countries in the "nordvirtual" array. function ascii_custom - use figlet with "-t" for longer text in wide terminals. function heading - also use "standard" and "smslant" figlet fonts depending on terminal width. function country_names - updated names and spelling. Compacted some functions.

No major changes. "Server load" is not working. If anyone knows how to query https://api.nordvpn.com/v1/servers by the VPN hostname and retrieve the current server load (without downloading the entire 20MB json) please add a comment to this issue: #6 Thanks!

function server_load - have not found a way to query the api directly by hostname, but "server id" will work. As a workaround will search the local "nordserversfile" to find the server id, and use that to query the api for the current server load. See customization option "nordserversfile" to create the file. #6

There does not seem to be a "hostname" or "ip" filter that can be used to query the api without downloading the entire json. |

Since 2024/03/05 there have been problems using the Nord Public API, for example "server load" is reporting "null%".
Unfortunately all the API functions used in this script may now be deprecated.

If anyone knows of a working method to find the load % of a connected server, to download a list of all available servers, etc, please respond or create a new issue with your solution(s). Thanks!
