Introduction

This module is based on @Nols1000's original version, created back in May of 2015. It is packed full of features, but was never updated to the newest version of HLTV's scorebot. The purpose of this version is to be more of a wrapper for HLTV, and to incorporate all of the features available with the new scorebot.

Getting Started

Install with npm:

$ npm install hltv-livescore

Usage:

var Livescore = require('hltv-livescore');
var live = new Livescore({
    listid: 2299033
});

live.on('kill', function(data) {
    console.log(data.killer.name, 'killed', data.victim.name, 'with', data.weapon, data.headshot ? '(headshot)' : '');
});
