In pbulsink/hockeyR: Collect and Clean Hockey Stats

hockeyR 1.4.1

hockeyR 1.4.0

• updated the game scrapers to use the new NHL API
• updated shift reports to use player IDs instead of names
• included additional column names left identical to raw JSON data from new API

hockeyR 1.3.1

• fixed issue in get_game_ids which defaulted to wrong season-end date and missed out on final games
• fixed get_game_shifts function to show message when no shift data present instead of erroring out

hockeyR 1.3.0

• fixed calculate_individual to ensure players with 0 shot events recorded still show up in final stats data (affects individual game stats mostly)
• removed polite dependency, shifted to entirely rvest scraping
• added checks to fix failing hockey-reference scrapers
• removed lingering native pipe from readme and scrape_game
• fixed incorrect color code in team_logos_colors (#6)

hockeyR 1.2.0

New functions added

• calculate_toi calculates the time on ice for all skaters in a supplied play-by-play set
• calculate_on_ice calculates player on-ice statistics for all skaters in a supplied play-by-play set
• calculate_individual calculates player individual statistics for all skaters in a supplied play-by-play set
• get_standings pulls standings and team stats for given seasons from NHL.com

Function updates

• get_game_ids now returns column for scheduled start time for each game
• %not_in% operator now defined globally within package

Bug fixes

• get_draft_class now works for classes prior to 1983 (first year player IDs existed)

hockeyR 1.1.0

New addition:

• Play-by-play data loaded through load_pbp includes new column for expected goals
• Details on & code to create the hockeyR expected goals model can be found here
• The scrape_game function has been adjusted to automatically add expected goals to the output

New function:

• calculate_xg adds expected goals column to pbp data (used inside scrape_game, not necessary to use this to get expected goal values)

Fixes:

• Changed the player_id column in get_draft_class to prospect_id - proper NHL player_id column only returns with player_details set to TRUE

hockeyR 1.0.0

• The scrape_game() function runs about 4x faster now

Three new functions have been added:

• get_team_roster() fetches the current roster for a single team from nhl.com

• get_draft_class() fetches all draft selections for a single draft year from nhl.com
