Return listTimeRanges data

Description

listTimeRanges returns the number of events by time range.

Usage

listTimeRanges(
  textQuery = NULL,
  eventTypeIds = NULL,
  eventIds = NULL,
  competitionIds = NULL,
  marketIds = NULL,
  venues = NULL,
  bspOnly = NULL,
  turnInPlayEnabled = NULL,
  inPlayOnly = NULL,
  marketBettingTypes = NULL,
  marketCountries = NULL,
  marketTypeCodes = NULL,
  fromDate = NULL,
  toDate = NULL,
  withOrders = NULL,
  raceTypes = NULL,
  timeGranularity = "HOURS",
  suppress = FALSE,
  sslVerify = TRUE
)

Arguments

textQuery	String. Restrict events by any text associated with the event such as the Name, Event, Competition, etc. The string can include a wildcard (*) character as long as it is not the first character. Optional. Default is NULL.
eventTypeIds	vector <String>. Restrict events by event type associated with the market. (i.e., Football, Horse Racing, etc). Accepts multiple IDs (See examples). IDs can be obtained via listEventTypes. Optional. Default is NULL.
eventIds	vector <String>. Restrict to events that are associated with the specified eventIDs (e.g. "27675602"). IDs can be obtained via listEvents.Optional. Default is NULL.
competitionIds	vector <String>. Restrict to events that are associated with the specified competition IDs (e.g. EPL = "31", La Liga = "117"). IDs can be obtained via listCompetitions. Optional. Default is NULL.
marketIds	vector <String>. Restrict to events that are associated with the specified marketIDs (e.g. "1.122958246"). Optional. Default is NULL.
venues	vector <String>. Restrict events by the venue associated with the market. This functionality is currently only available for horse racing markets (e.g.venues=c("Exeter","Navan")). Venue names can be obtained via listVenues. Optional. Default is NULL.
bspOnly	Boolean. Restrict to betfair staring price (bsp) events only if TRUE or non-bsp events if FALSE. Optional. Default is NULL, which means that both bsp and non-bsp events are returned.
turnInPlayEnabled	Boolean. Restrict to events that will turn in play if TRUE or will not turn in play if FALSE. Optional. Default is NULL, which means that both event types are returned.
inPlayOnly	Boolean. Restrict to events that are currently in play if TRUE or not in play if FALSE. Optional. Default is NULL, which means that both event types are returned.
marketBettingTypes	vector <String>. Restrict to events that match the betting type of the market (i.e. Odds, Asian Handicap Singles, or Asian Handicap Doubles). Optional. Default is NULL. See https://api.developer.betfair.com/services/webapps/docs/display/1smk3cen4v3lu3yomq5qye0ni/Betting+Enums#BettingEnums-MarketBettingType for a full list (and description) of viable parameter values.
marketCountries	vector <String>. Restrict to events that are in the specified country or countries. Accepts multiple country codes (See examples). Codes can be obtained via listCountries. Optional. Default is NULL.
marketTypeCodes	vector <String>. Restrict to events that match the type of the market (i.e. MATCH_ODDS, HALF_TIME_SCORE). You should use this instead of relying on the market name as the market type codes are the same in all locales. Accepts multiple market type codes (See examples). Market codes can be obtained via listMarketTypes. Optional. Default is NULL.
fromDate	The start date from which to return matching events. Format is %Y-%m-%dT%TZ, tz = "UTC". Times must be submitted in UTC as this is what is used by Betfair. Optional. Default is NULL.
toDate	The end date to stop returning matching events. Format is %Y-%m-%dT%TZ, tz = "UTC". Times must be submitted in UTC as this is what is used by Betfair. Optional. Default is NULL.
withOrders	String. Restrict to events in which the user has bets of a specified status. The two viable values are "EXECUTION_COMPLETE" (an order that does not have any remaining unmatched portion) and "EXECUTABLE" (an order that has a remaining unmatched portion). Optional. Default is NULL.
raceTypes	vector <String>. Restrict by race type (i.e. Hurdle, Flat, Bumper, Harness, Chase). These don't appear to be clearly and consistently defined in Betfair's documentation. Optional. Default is NULL.
suppress	Boolean. By default, this parameter is set to FALSE, meaning that a warning is posted when the listEvents call throws an error. Changing this parameter to TRUE will suppress this warning.
sslVerify	Boolean. This argument defaults to TRUE and is optional. In some cases, where users have a self signed SSL Certificate, for example they may be behind a proxy server, Betfair will fail login with "SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain". If this error occurs you may set sslVerify to FALSE. This does open a small security risk of a man-in-the-middle intercepting your login credentials.

Details

listTimeRanges returns a list of time ranges in the granularity specified in the request (i.e. 3PM to 4PM, Aug 14th to Aug 15th) and the number of markets selected by the MarketFilter. A full description of the function output may be found here: https://docs.developer.betfair.com/display/1smk3cen4v3lu3yomq5qye0ni/Betting+Type+Definitions#BettingTypeDefinitions-TimeRangeResult

Value

Response from Betfair is stored in the listTimeRanges variable, which is then parsed from JSON as a list. If the listTimeRanges call throws an error, a data frame containing error information is returned.

Note on listTimeRangesOps variable

The listTimeRangesOps variable is used to firstly build an R data frame containing all the data to be passed to Betfair, in order for the function to execute successfully. The data frame is then converted to JSON and included in the HTTP POST request.
