CrgScoreboardExtractor

Extract data from the Carolina Roller Derby Scoreboard so it can be processed.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'crg-scoreboard-extractor'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install crg-scoreboard-extractor

You can use the Watcher class to keep polling the xml file generated by the crg-scoreboard application:

CrgScoreboardExtractor::Watcher.new('path/to/scoreboard-0-now.xml').every(5) do |bout|
  bout.period.time
  bout.period.number
  bout.period.running

  bout.jam.time
  bout.jam.number
  bout.jam.running

  bout.team1.name # There's also a Bout#team2 method
  bout.team1.logo_path
  bout.team1.score
  bout.team1.lead_jammer
  bout.team1.positions # The list of skaters positions in the current jam
  bout.team1.jammer # A helper method to get the team's jammer in the current jam from the positions list

  position = bout.team1.positions.first
  position.type # Jammer, Pivot, Blocker1, Blocker2, etc.
  position.name
  position.number
end

You can also instantiate directly the Bout class:

CrgScoreboardExtractor::Bout.new(File.open('path/to/scoreboard-0-now.xml'))
