@strawberry-3.141 has there been any movement on this? I’ve been dying for an NBA module but can’t find a basketball API, and I’m pretty new to the scene to begin with. I’d love to collaborate with someone on this, if there’s interest.

@chieftainSupreme sorry I have no time in the next month to do any requests, but i saw that someone forked my repository and trys to change it for nba. check it out maybe you can help him https://github.com/in-a-days/MMM-NBA/

I am playing around with this - but I’m also just barely qualified to write code!

I’m gutting out most the higher level functions like stats and voice support, trying to just get correct scores to display. Biggest problem so far is I can not find an easy to parse score feed. This NFL feed is perfect.

@in_a_days I’ve been having trouble finding an NBA feed as well, I’ll keep looking and let you know if I find anything

@chieftainSupreme

Found this today. It’s not nearly as elegant as the NFL xml file, but it should technically be parsable.

So it’s been over 15 years since I’ve done much coding. My background is in C++ and I ran a few Python tutorials when I first got my Pi.

I’m writing a parser for this NBA score feed and it just occurred to me that I don’t know how to integrate a python script into Magic Mirror. I’ve made some good progress, but is there any sense continuing? Will I be able to easily port this to JS or will Magic Mirror know what to do with the .py file, or am I going to need to start over?

@in_a_days check out this python shell module https://github.com/paviro/MMM-Facial-Recognition/blob/master/node_helper.js#L11

[in_a_days]

I’ve completed an ugly parser for this NBA data. I have a python program that stores and prints a list of home teams, away teams, scores, and event times. Can anybody help me with passing these variables into the existing NFL module framework?

[strawberry 3.141]

@in_a_days I suggest to move this into the development section and a new thread for nba

Help: you can run the python script in from inside the node_helper and read the output, then send the data to your module with a socket notification

Thank you again for the help. I’ve opened a new thread here:

Fixed issues reported (shows NFL undefined 2017)

Is anyone having a problem getting the Preseason 2018 to display? If I reboot my MM, it will say, Preseason 2018, but the final week of the 2017 regular season will display. Any suggestions?

I’m on vacation for a while, please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

Here’s where you do it :)

But looking at the code real quick it’s not set up for preseason …regular and playoffs only. The NFL only offers those two options for data.

Thanks cowboysdude!

If it isnt set up for Preseason, than that would make sense. Regular season, here I come!

This MMM-NFL module only shows the preseason from last year…

How do I get it to show the current week’s games and scores?

Or, better yet, How can I get it to show the pre-season, regular season, and playoff games for a single particular team or teams???

What I am wanting is a single page on my mirror to show all the above for 3 certain teams: Chiefs, Cowboys, & Broncos, side-by-side for one view of each team on the same page, so that my eldest son (Broncos), my son-in-law (Cowboys), and myself (Chiefs - of course!) can easily see the comparison between them.

[justjim1220]

BTW…

I’ve tried to place 3 iFrames on one page, one to show each schedule in a live updated format. But I cannot figure out how to get it to work. Is it even possible to use the same module coded in 3 different ways to show on the same page??? :thinking_face: :thinking_face: :thinking_face:

You’re welcome! Trust me it’s a great module!!!

[cowboysdude]

@justjim1220 It’s not setup to show any preseason games…on the Github page it shows config options and this is one of them:

`focus_on	 Display only matches with teams of this array e.g. ['NYG', 'DAL', 'NE'].`

This is how it’s used:

     `{ 
         module: 'MMM-NFL', 
         position: 'top_right', 
         config: { 
         focus_on:  ['NYG', 'DAL', 'NE']  //JUST an example to show ONLY those 3 teams
         } 
         }
