Nice! I was thinking about doing something like this but for cycling, however one of the biggest PIA about building products for sports is all the gating of data.
Does the NHL really provide an API for all games? That's nice...
- vcf 6mo agoI had the same thought, went ahead when I found an existing Python module to access the API.
- stackskipton 6mo agoOfficially no, but there is undocumented API (if you are commercial, they provide documentation and support) that is public without authentication.
- redanddead 6mo agothe more I think about it, the more it's actually so weird that the leagues don't have APIs
- Shalomboy 6mo agoThe request definitely comes from the leagues' broadcast partners, right? They would want as many eyeballs concentrated in as few places as possible so they can sell ads for more.
