Backend Options
Nexori does not require a backend.
You can use Nexori standalone with local queues and local match launches. When you need external control, Nexori can integrate with your own backend.
Without A Backend
Use this for:
- casual queues
- local minigames
- small server setups
- simple testing
- modes that do not need rankings or external history
LOCAL_FIFO queues continue to work without any backend dependency.
With A Backend
Use this when you want your own service to own decisions like:
- matchmaking algorithms
- ELO or Glicko
- ranked queues
- tournaments
- leaderboards
- player history
- region-aware routing
- load-aware match placement
Nexori syncs state to your backend with POST /nexori/sync, and your backend returns assignments in Nexori's expected format.
Result Reporting
Result reporting is separate from matchmaking sync.
When enabled, Nexori sends completed match results to POST /nexori/results. For third-party rules mods, the mod decides the final result through the Public API and can pass custom minigame data at final submit time.
