Installation & Usage

Installation

You can install the released version of oddsapiR from GitHub with:

# You can install using the pacman package using the following code:
if (!requireNamespace('pacman', quietly = TRUE)){
  install.packages('pacman')
}
pacman::p_load_current_gh("sportsdataverse/oddsapiR")
# if you would prefer devtools installation
if (!requireNamespace('devtools', quietly = TRUE)){

}

git clone https://github.com/sportsdataverse/oddsapi
cd oddsapi
Rscript -e "devtools::install()"

Odds API Keys

The Odds API requires an API key, here’s a quick run-down:

ODDS_API_KEY = XXXX-YOUR-API-KEY-HERE-XXXXX

Save the script and restart your RStudio session, by clicking Session (in between Plots and Build) and click Restart R (there also exists the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + F10 to restart your session). If set correctly, from then on you should be able to use any of the functions without any other changes.

Sys.setenv(ODDS_API_KEY = "XXXX-YOUR-API-KEY-HERE-XXXXX")

Documentation

For more information on the package and function reference, please see the oddsapiR documentation website.
