Updating for 2017 Data #296

Closed cminton closed 6 years ago

cminton commented 6 years ago

How do I update for 2017 data? I a generating an erro trying to read 2017 data with the nflgame API. I have run pip install --upgrade nflgame. Is there something else I should do? Sorry for the novice question.

I ran pip install --upgrade nflgame, so my package is up to date. I am trying to read data for 2017, week 1 and getting an error. The following statement is generating an empty list.

game_list = nflgame.games(year=2017, week=1)

Any thoughts?

The version of nflgame available on PyPI is quite old and as the library is un-maintained I would not expect it to be refreshed.

You can try pip installing directly from github, which is a more recent version than what is available on PyPI.

pip uninstall nflgame
pip install git+https://github.com/BurntSushi/nflgame.git
