NFL Score Module

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

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?

@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

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!
