Project Title

NBA 2017-18 Data Analysis

Project description

This is SI507 Final project, authored by Yipeng Chen. I made a very simple back-end to front-end software to visualize and give a analysis on NBA 2017-18 team & player data during regular season.

Data collection

https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2018.html https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2018_per_game.html There is a crawler program to get the data. We use cache so if you want to reload the data, you may need to delete json file.

Getting Started

Install virtualenv

I gave "requirement.txt" here, so you can use virtualenv to install that file.

$ pip3 install virtualenv

Create virtual environment

Let's say you want to use your virtualenv as "venv". At your desired path,

$ virtualenv venv

Activate virtual environment

$ source venv/bin/activate

(is you want to end virtual environment at any time: )

$ Deactivate

Install required libraries

(venv) $ pip install -r /path/to/requirements.txt 

Start program

(venv) $ python main.py
