This service is in charge of fetching betting lines and exposing them via an API
This service defines a task called fetch-lines that scrapes betting lines from different websites. Currently the only website we scrape is Draftkings.
Install nodenv
Using nodenv, install this repository's version of node
nodenv install
Install dependencies
npm install
Start the container. This will start the API server, and should set up the database as well
npm run docker:dev
You can now open a separate window and connect to the container via
npm run docker:connect
You may need to run migrations on the database
npm run db:migrate
To compile the project run
npm run build
In order to run the fetch-lines task you can choose to run either the typescript task or the compiled pure javascript task
Running the typescript task is recommended if you are developing and modifying the task. You can do so via
npx ts-node src/tasks/fetch-lines.ts
Running the pure javascript task is recommended when testing the production version of the task, and typically has better performance
node dist/tasks/fetch-lines.js
The docker image should typically set up the database. If the database is not being set up, you may need to manually set it up via
npm run db:setup
npm run db:setup:user
In order to create a migration, run
npm run db:migrate:make {NAME OF YOUR MIGRATION}
In order to run all outstanding migrations, run
npm run db:migrate
In order to rollback a migration, run
npm run db:rollback
In order to reset the database, run
npm run db:reset
The docker image typically starts a server. This may not be preferable, and can be disabled by uncommenting the following line in the docker-compose file
# command: tail -f /dev/null
You can then open a separate terminal window and connect to the container via
npm run docker:connect
You can then start your own development server (uses ts-node) via
the following. Note that the development server has hot reload enabled.
npm run start:dev
You can start your own production server via
npm run start
In order to format your code before merging, run
npm run format
