We ought to label the live threads men's and women's teams
@UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev would this be possible? Thanks.
That's some uncanny timing. I was just opening the espn site to look if there are any attributes separating women's class from the open class. If it's possible, I'll add it in.
Lovely! Maybe base it by checking the manager, if that's possible? I know that would probably have to be hardcoded though.
There's no direct attributes the tells whether a game is for the women's competition or not unfortunately. Checking based on managers would be too much maintenance considering there are hundreds of teams to keep track of.
I'll probably just implement a check for the league name, though that isn't completely free of future maintenance either.
These are the women's competitions that ESPN currently supports and that I've added.
The detection for women's football comes with a slight change in behaviour. If you want to add a football game from the women, you now need to add the tag
-wto the game request. Likewise to remove a game from the queue you also need to add the tag-w. Where you place the tag doesn't matter as long as it's after the main commands-football,-remove -football. Please note that there's no space between "-" and "w".E.g.
-football -w gunners@lemmy.world arsenal - manchester cityor
-remove -football gunners@lemmy.world arsenal - manchester city -wThanks!
Oh and would it also be possible to hide the game score in the title? Don't wanna be a spoiler.
I'm assuming it needs to be done by code given the title gets updated by the bot.
