Description
Experience Level: Expert
I would like to create a script which would allow me to scrape data from a website and present it in excel format.
This is the website in question: https://www.pdc.tv/live-scores
If you click on that link, on the left hand side you can a list of of darts matches that have taken place on a particular date (you can change the date using the calendar tab). So for example, if you move it to the the 29th September, you can see the first match on the list is Gian Van Veen v Ricky Evans.
If you then click into that game, a variety of information about the game is provided. One of the 4 tabs just below the Dart Board Graphic says "Timeline". This is where the data I am interested in is contained.
If you click into "Timeline" you can scroll up and down. It shows the result of every dart thrown at the board by each player during the course of the match. This is the data I want to scrape.
I have attached an excel file which I hope shows how I would like the data presented. It shows the first 3 legs of the Gian van Veen v Ricky Evans match.
Column's A - K remain constant for each match. They refer to just a summary of the match. The date and time it took place, which tournament it was etc.
Column L refers to which the particular leg of the match. Most darts matches are based on a "best of" number of legs. Such matches are effectively just 1 long set. So all these type of matches would have 1.1, 1.2, 1.3....1.x etc in Column L.
Some darts matches (See for example matches played on the 4th October to demonstrate) are played in "best of" number of sets, with each set being split into a "best of" 5 legs. So in the first set of such a match, if the score was 2-2 in legs, the winner of the next leg would receive 1 set and the leg score would reset to 0-0 at the start of the 2nd set.
For these matches, Column L would contain 1.1, 1.2, 1.3... for the 1st set. 2.1, 2,2, 2,3, 2,4... etc for the second set. And so on.
Similarly, Column's H to K refer to the number of legs and sets each player won in total during the match.
Column M should record who threw first in the leg. Column N should record who won the leg. Column's O and P record what each dart scored. Column's Q and R record how many darts each player threw during the leg.
I would like to have a script which could execute this task for every leg of every game in any date range I specify.
I hope I have explained everything in sufficient detail, but please don't hesitate to ask if anything is unclear or you have any questions!
Many thanks,
Gem
