Game Odds.

[alexanderthebadatcoding]

I may have figured out a way to get game odds from ESPN. This works but it's slow and may need to be improved.

in the nfl_api_parser.py add:

def get_moneyline_odds(game_id):
    url = f"http://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/nfl/events/{game_id}/competitions/{game_id}/odds"

    # Make the API request
    response = requests.get(url)

    # Check if the request was successful (status code 200)
    if response.status_code == 200:
        # Parse the JSON data
        data = response.json()

        # Navigate through the structure to access awayTeamOdds for the first item (index 0)
        items = data.get("items", [])

        if items:
            first_item = items[0]
            away_team_odds = first_item.get("awayTeamOdds", {})
            home_team_odds = first_item.get("homeTeamOdds", {})

            # Extract relevant information from awayTeamOdds
            away_moneyline = away_team_odds.get("moneyLine", "N/A")
            away_ML = f"+{away_moneyline}" if away_moneyline >= 0 else str(away_moneyline)

            # Extract relevant information from homeTeamOdds
            home_moneyline = home_team_odds.get("moneyLine", "N/A")
            home_ML = f"+{home_moneyline}" if home_moneyline >= 0 else str(home_moneyline)

            # Return the moneyline odds for both away and home teams
            return away_ML, home_ML

        else:
            print("No items in the response.")

    else:
        print(f"Request failed with status code: {response.status_code}")

def get_all_games():
    # for i in range(5):
    try:
        res = requests.get(URL)
        res = res.json()
        games = []
        # i = 0
        for g in res['events']:
            info = g['competitions'][0]
            game_id = g['id']

            # Fetch the moneyline odds for the current game
            away_moneyline, home_moneyline = get_moneyline_odds(game_id)
            game = {'id': game_id, 'name': g['shortName'], 'date': g['date'],
                    'hometeam': info['competitors'][0]['team']['abbreviation'], 'homeid': info['competitors'][0]['id'], 'homescore': int(info['competitors'][0]['score']),
                    'awayteam': info['competitors'][1]['team']['abbreviation'], 'awayid': info['competitors'][1]['id'], 'awayscore': int(info['competitors'][1]['score']),
                    'down': info.get('situation', {}).get('shortDownDistanceText'), 'spot': info.get('situation', {}).get('possessionText'),
                    'time': info['status']['displayClock'], 'quarter': info['status']['period'], 'over': info['status']['type']['completed'],
                    'redzone': info.get('situation', {}).get('isRedZone'), 'possession': info.get('situation', {}).get('possession'), 'state': info['status']['type']['state'],
                    'away_moneyline': away_moneyline,'home_moneyline': home_moneyline}
            games.append(game)
            # i += 1
            # print(away_moneyline, home_moneyline)
        return games
    except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
        print("Error encountered getting game info, can't hit ESPN api, retrying")
        # if i < 4:
        #     t.sleep(1)
        #     continue
        # else:
        #     print("Can't hit ESPN api after multiple retries, dying ", e)
    except Exception as e:
        print("something bad?", e)

And then add the text results for the "away_moneyline, home_moneyline" to the pre-game renderer.

This works but it slows down the script, so it might need a loading text or image. Or maybe the code can be optimized.
