Good morning hockey fans! It’s still a good bit before pre-season, but I’ve been working on a bot for the flyers community and would like some feedback on what everyone would find useful. Based on tests it should be ready to go once pre-season rolls around. It pull stats/standings /live scores at the moment. If there’s other features (or more information you would like to see on the existing ones), please let me know so I can make sure to have it finished before the start of the season!
I’d also love feedback from any community mods that want to use the bot for any way to make it easier for you to do so! Right now it can be installed through python’s pip command or through docker
It’s probably best to start it near the pre-season in it’s current version as I haven’t thought of a good way to only spit out the weekly standings/team stats during the season as a heads up.
The docker (or pip) should only take 5 ish minutes to get up and running as long as you have your account and password ready to go. The config script only needs: username/password(only stores the login cookie, not the password itself), server address, team (will list team numbers), community to post in, and if the account is a mod for pinned posts/maybe sidebar updating if I can get it in before the season starts. Once it has those it will automate grabbing the schedule, and posting when you start the app with 0 need for anything from you going forward.
