lemmy-nhl 1.5.0

bot to add live scores to lemmy community for hockey games

DEV branch has been tested. A few things to note:

Without modifying files, there is currently no way to test this. I've tested that it works with old data, and will be testing/ fixing whatever needs it during the first preseason game of the Flyers (or earlier if someone reports an issue before this).

lemmy_nhl_bot

nhl linescore grabber/poster for lemmy

This script requires the following to be installed from pip: plemmy, requests, json

pip install plemmy # source is https://github.com/tjkessler/plemmy/ Many thanks for tjkessler for the simple to use library!

pip install requests

pip install json

This has been tested with python 3.9 in FreeBSD and python3 in linux for a few basic outputs. Will be testing it on the first preseason game for live updates and pushing any needed fixes at that time in preperation for the regular season.

cd lemmy_nhl_bot
