Warrior General Games

I've made a very basic GLB2 python script which I plan on fleshing out for a while. Currently it's a python script which you just run locally (must have Python, Selenium and BS4), if anyone is interested in it I've set up a private forum where I'll post regular releases and updates (and try and respond to feedback!).

Never used any scouting scripts in GLB1 so it may be useless, need some more experienced users to give it a shot.

Ok got a much better deployment system, compiled into an executable so anyone should be able to run it through the command line.

open source?

I can do a pastebin of the code for every release (trying to get one out every few days with improvements and fixes).

Instructions

1. Extract this to a suitable folder (ie C:/GLBScouting/).
2. Run command prompt
3. Navigate to this folder (you want to type cd.. until you get to the base C:/ directory then type cd GLBScouting)
4. run with the following command - ScoutingScript "http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/9970/1774854" "Brisbane Bogans" "Regina Rebels" "scout.csv"

Output column order

- Offense Play
- WR_Count
- Offense Team
- Defense Play
- Defense Formation
- Defense Team
- Down
- Distance
- Quarter
- Time
- Play yardage (just 0 for all turnovers)
- Potential turnover flag
- Play Description
- Play link

New

- Unicode bug removed
- End of game is now detected, scouting should never be cut short and will also be faster for games with lower numbers of plays
- Clock time column added
- Play yardage added
- Turnover flag. Note that this just checks for key words and doesn't work out if a fumble was recovered by the offense.
- Quarter progress messaging

Works pretty well from my testing. Still some issues (OT game cut off) but this is a start!

Awesome work so far, but I've ran the script twice and it cuts off with 2 minutes left in the 1st QTR and doesn't start back up. I am running off a slow internet connection so that may have something to do with it.

It locks up on 2 point conversions. That's the only issue I've seen. The next release is supposed to fix that.

this is on win7 64-bit. The .csv file is not being created.

Hmm yeah if it has the same page for about 5 seconds it will stop, might increase it a bit as it won't really affect anyone else (also give a message so you know why it's stopping).

Working on tighter integration with excel (ie you just put a play in a cell somewhere and click a button and it does everything) so those with no cmd line knowledge can run it.

Got a 0.12.1 release up with a fix for the 2 point conversion stuff as well as hopefully a bit more leniency for slower internet connections.

How do you actually load and use this?

I am getting an error of "selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: u'unknown error: cannot find Chrom binary\n <Driver info: chromedriver=2.8.241075,platform=Windows NT 6.1 SP x86_64"

Any tips?
