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 creates posts for all of these, and for the live game scores pins to the community (if account is a mod) while the game is live. The side bar could be fun, but it would be hard to do as editing the side bar would wipe whatever was there beforehand, I’d have to look at how to scrape it. I’d also need to see if the sidebar supports tables and how they would look. Were you thinking standings/schedule on the sidebar?
Time and date for the next game is a great idea!
