Python scrapers are on their way hopefully, still in development at the moment...

Take a look at the other events to get an idea.

If you want a new sport added you will need to post on the forums on the site to request it.

Most of the wrestling leagues are already there though including WCW and TNA

I meant scrapers that populate your DB.

Ahh well anything that can export a csv will be fine. We have a few powershell scripts that do this already that just run on the webserver as on a schedule..

My folder structure is setup a bit like this ...

Code:
Wrestling

|- WCW

|-- Season 1998

|--- WCW 1998-02-22 SuperBrawl VIII.xxx

|-- Season 1999

|--- WCW 1999-04-11 Spring Stampede 1999.xxx

|-- Season 2000

|--- WCW 2000-12-17 Starrcade 2000.xxx

|- WWE

|-- Season 1998

|--- WWE 1998-11-15 Survivor Series 1998.xxx

|-- Season 1999

|--- WWE 1999-08-22 SummerSlam 1999.xxx

|-- Season 2000

|--- WWE 2000-05-21 Judgment Day 2000.xxx

Just take the names given at the bottom of each event on thesportsdb website for the file names.

New Raw and Smackdowns are being added in weekly by one contributor at the moment.

There is no TNA however but if you're willing to edit it in you can request it but make sure you get a few other edits under your belt first before you start requesting new stuff.

Have not tested it though.

that's what I thought, however when I run the scraper using that exact folder structure and a file with that name I get this result

can't see why

Any luck getting this to work?

curswine · 2016-08-28, 11:59

It won't work as there is a bug in the scraper meaning that events that take place on the same date as another event will get scraped incorrectly.

Does anyone have it working for NBA games? In my case it detects NBA league, but only recognise a couple of games (from 10) and it's failing with dates and teams.

I'm using the following structure:

Code:
NBA

  Season 1415

    NBA 2015-03-12 San Antonio Spurs vs Cleveland Cavaliers.mkv

  Season 1516

    NBA 2016-01-08 San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks.mkv

    NBA 2016-02-09 Golden State Warriors vs Houston Rockets.mkv

...

I'm having a problem With my American NFL Teams.

Think it is having a problem with The " St. louis Rams" Now being " L A Rams"

But anyway. My Folders are:

Sports -> American NFL -> Season 2016 -> ( what ever team ) -> ( The file name )

Having problems with the " 49ers " . 1 Packers Game . 1 Texans Game

Names That do work:
American NFL 2016-09-19 Green Bay Packers vs Minnesota Vikings.mkv
American NFL 2016-09-25 Detroit Lions vs Green Bay Packers.mkv
American NFL 2016-09-23 Houston Texans vs New England Patriots.mkv

Naming them Don't Work. :
American NFL 2016-09-11 Jacksonville Jaguars vs Green Bay Packers.mkv

American NFL 2016-09-11 Houston Texans vs Chicago Bears.mkv

American NFL 2016-09-12 San Francisco 49ers vs St. Louis Rams.mkv
American NFL 2016-09-18 San Francisco 49ers vs Carolina Panthers.mkv

But are showing on TV as :
01. Buffalo Bills @ Baltimore Ravens

01. Buffalo Bills @ Baltimore Ravens

01. Pittsburgh Steelers @ Washington Redskins
02. New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins

I copied the name off the bottom of the TSDS website for that game.

one other thing. The Fan-art is always the same . Picture of Colts vs Texans. For all the teams.

The scraper really isn't made for team sports, and at the moment there is a major bug meaning that multiple events that take place on the same date won't be scraped properly.

And seeing as the scraper's development is stalled don't hold your breath for a fix any time soon.

Try to PM the author maybe, the source is in the first post.

Done, but he's not visited the site since February, hopefully will get a response though.
