Introducing itscalledsoccer ⚽ 🎉

This is the first release of itscalledsoccer, a wrapper around the same API that powers the American Soccer Analysis app. It enables R users to programmatically retrieve advanced analytics for their favorite players and teams, with coverage of the following competitions:

  • Major League Soccer
  • National Women's Soccer League
  • USL Championship
  • USL League One
  • MLS NEXT Pro
  • North American Soccer League (defunct)

We at ASA, have been working on this for the better part of 6 months and are super excited to release it. We hope it makes interacting with our data easier and allows people to build new and informative things.

What's new ✨

Bug fixes 🐛

None, but if you do find a bug while using the package, please submit an issue.

Documentation 📚

We know our documentation is a bit sparse at the moment, but we plan on building it up and adding more examples over time. In the meantime, the API documentation should be a sufficient stop gap for specific functions.

Happy soccering!
