data appears incomplete for three specific weeks (including 2019 week 16)

[opi9a]

I cannot get data for 2019 week 16 (or for two other weeks in previous years).

>>> import nflgame
>>> len(nflgame.games(year=2019, week=15))
16
>>> len(nflgame.games(year=2019, week=16))
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/gav/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/nflgame/__init__.py", line 224, in games
    return list(games_gen(year, week, home, away, kind, started))
  File "/home/gav/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/nflgame/__init__.py", line 271, in gen
    g = nflgame.game.Game(**info)
  File "/home/gav/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/nflgame/game.py", line 315, in __new__
    game.data = json.loads(game.rawData.decode('utf-8'))[game.eid]
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'decode'

I get the same error for year=2017, week=1 and year=2018, week=16. All other weeks from 2009 on are ok.

Thanks.

While I can't say what is going on with the 2017 and 2018 seasons, there was a comment on another issue regarding the 2019 issue in #98, specifically comment https://github.com/derek-adair/nflgame/issues/98#issuecomment-568932261 Basically, you should try running the nflgame-update-schedule from the /scripts/ folder with --rebuild flag.

Great that works, thanks.

As an aside, having installed using pip install nflgame-redux==2.0.1b1 I cannot see a scripts/ folder as described.

Instead I ran the following from the nflgame/ home directory:

$ python update_schedule.py --rebuild

Thanks again

I also am still having this same issue. I ran from cmd (@ location Python37\Scripts):

$ python nflgame-update-schedule --rebuild

in my python 37 directory, but the same error still persists as the OP stated.

Any thoughts on what else to try?

[opi9a]

You have tried what I did?

[Coop197823]

yes, I found the error seemed to be my env variables were pointing to my 27 python and not my 37 python.

However I did notice that players teams did not update correctly. For instance, when I run code:

import nflgame
week = 16
games = nflgame.games(2018, week=week)           
for play in play.filter(passing_incmp__gt=0):
    for player in play.players:
        if player.player is not None and player.player.position in ['WR', 'TE', 'RB']:
            row = [player.name, player.player.team, player.player.position,  play.passing_incmp_air_yds] 
            print(row)

Z.Jones shows up with team OAK (instead of BUF for 2018). So it seems the players have not updated correctly for 2018.

player.player.team is referencing their current team as it is taken from the player's current NFL profile.

You might try player.team instead of player.player.team

Is there a way to specifically match older players to teams?
