nhlrank 0.0.1.dev15

Analytics software for NHL teams data past and present

Track current rankings, as well as trends and recent patterns for your favorite team.

Model the probability of winning the next game, making playoffs, winning specific playoff games, or the championship as a whole.

Notes

I hope to extend this to include individual/player statistics at some point too.

Initially available as a command line interface.

Eventually this will be hosted as a website rendered by a Flask API and Svelte front-end, and available in a more dynamic, engaging format.

I suggest using direnv to automatically load/unload the venv shell.

sudo apt install direnv

Running

Requires Python3 and venv. See the argcomplete package page for details on how to set it up with various shells, the tab-completion is working on this project and highly useful to anyone using this program.

git clone https://github.com/nutratech/nhlrank.git
cd nhlrank

make init
make deps

./sp fetch  # if CSV is out of date
./sp stand -c  # "-c" means used cached, e.g. don't fetch
./sp stand -c -t "Detroit Red Wings"  # show details for a team
./sp stand -c -s rating  # sort teams in standings by Glicko rating

# sort teams in standings by average opponent, include team details
./sp stand -c -t "Anaheim Ducks" -s avg_opp

# show help
./sp -h
./sp stand -h

Shortcut for testing

You can create a symbolic link for quick testing.

sudo ln -s "<FULL_PATH_TO_sp>" /usr/local/bin/sp

Test it.

sp stand -h
