A utility package for managing a american football game, including scoring, down, distance and so on, Game Clock and game setup with team names and logos. Can be used for further implementation like livetickers or displaying scoreboards.
This package is developed with Python3 and was not tested with Python2, so there's no guarantee it will work under Python2.
The package can be installed by pip:
pip install footballscoring
This installs the only requirement, Apscheduler, with it.
Run unittests simply like this while in the main directory:
python -m unittest discover
For keeping track of the Score, Down etc. or the Game Clock, simply import the according class and instantiate it.
If you want to use the Game Clock, simply instantiate the GameClock object with the required quarter length in minutes. If you want to specify the interval in which the clock should be updated, you can specify this by specifying interval_ms in milliseconds.
from footballscoring.gameclock import GameClock
game_clock = GameClock(quarter_length=12, interval_ms=10)Now you can simply start, stop, set or reset the clock by calling the according method.
game_clock.start()
game_clock.stop()
game_clock.reset_clock()
game_clock.set_clock(minutes=2, seconds=3)While creating and running the game, the package will keep track of the current game status and its validity regarding range of the values.
