#imageboard

Live post, tag and ranking data from Danbooru, the large community anime-art imageboard, via its public API. Danbooru is built around a deep tag taxonomy — every image is tagged by artist, character, copyright (the source series) and general descriptors. Search images by tag and get each post's score, favourite count, rating, dimensions and its split tag sets. Read a single post in full. Search the tag database itself, returning each tag's post count and category — the metadata that powers booru search. Get the most-favourited posts of a given day, the site's trending art. Live, no key, nothing stored; to keep results work-safe, only general- and sensitive-rated posts are returned. Distinct from 4chan and other imageboard APIs — this is Danbooru's tagged-art database and its rankings. Perfect for art-discovery, tagging and community apps.

Live read-only access to the 4chan imageboard, served straight from its official JSON API — one of the most influential anonymous forums on the internet and a primary source of internet culture, exposed as clean JSON with the HTML stripped to plain text. The boards endpoint lists every one of 4chan's ~77 boards with its code, title, worksafe flag, pages, threads-per-page and a description, from /g/ (Technology) and /v/ (Video Games) to /news/, /sci/ and /pol/. The catalog endpoint returns every live thread on a board summarized — the opening post's subject and a plain-text teaser of its comment, the reply and image counts, the sticky and closed flags and when it was last bumped — sorted by activity, replies or images: the front page of the board as data. The hot endpoint self-discovers and returns the single most active thread on a board right now, fully expanded with the original post and its top replies, so you never need a thread id that has expired. The thread endpoint returns one specific thread in full by its id — the original post and every reply with author name, timestamp, plain-text comment and image filename — and falls back to the current top thread when no id is given. Everything is the live board state, nothing stored. This is the imageboard layer for any social-listening, trend-tracking, meme-research, moderation or bot app. Live from 4chan's JSON API. Distinct from Reddit, Hacker News and Lemmy APIs — this is 4chan's boards, catalogs and threads. Some boards are NSFW (worksafe flag provided). 5 endpoints, no key on our side, nothing cached.
