UEFA or FIFA don&#39;t seem to provide any API to get the information you want. However, there are some third-party services which support that:

- [OPTA][1] - Both commercial and free. They have incredible database about matches. Whoscored.com currently uses it.

- Others: livescoreboards, xmlsoccer, ...

  [1]: http://www.optasports.com/
  [2]: http://developer.espn.com/docs/scores#using-the-api

http://api.football-data.org/index is free and useful.
The API is in active development, stable and recently the first versioned release called alpha was put online. Check the blog section to follow updates and changes.

UEFA internally provides their own ***LIVEX*** Api for their Broadcasting Partners. That one is perfect enough to develop the Applications by their partners for themselves.

You can find stats-dot-com - personally I think their are better than opta. ESPN seems don&#39;t provide data in full and do not provide live data feeds (unfortunatelly).

We&#39;ve been seeking for official data feed providing for our fantasy games (solutionsforfantasysport.com) and still staying with stats-com mainly (used opta, datafactory as well)

Under Linux, I&#39;ve been checking out matplotlib&#39;s animation class, and it seems to work except that I cant initialise the movie writer to write out the movie.

Using either of the examples:

 * &lt;http://matplotlib.org/examples/animation/moviewriter.html&gt;
 * &lt;http://matplotlib.org/examples/animation/basic_example_writer.html&gt;

results in the error &quot;**RuntimeError: No MovieWriters available!**&quot;

Im using matplotlib version 1.3.x and have installed (hopefully) all the codecs.

Can someone please suggest as to why I get this error? If its a codecs issue, which codecs (+versions) should I install?
If its something else that&#39;s broken, is there an alternative for creating animations in python?

I am confused about how SOAP messages and WSDL fit together?  I have started looking into SOAP messages such as:

        POST /InStock HTTP/1.1
    Host: www.example.org
    Content-Type: application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8
    Content-Length: nnn
    
    &lt;?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;?&gt;
    &lt;soap:Envelope
    xmlns:soap=&quot;http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope&quot;
    soap:encodingStyle=&quot;http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-encoding&quot;&gt;
    
    &lt;soap:Body xmlns:m=&quot;http://www.example.org/stock&quot;&gt;
      &lt;m:GetStockPrice&gt;
    	&lt;m:StockName&gt;IBM&lt;/m:StockName&gt;
      &lt;/m:GetStockPrice&gt;
    &lt;/soap:Body&gt;
    
    &lt;/soap:Envelope&gt;

Are all SOAP messages WSDL&#39;s? Is SOAP a protocol that accepts its own &#39;SOAP messages&#39; or &#39;WSDL&#39;s?  If they are different,  then when should I use SOAP messages and when should I use WSDL&#39;s?

Some clarification around this would be awesome.

Does amazon s3 support batch uploads? 
I have a job that needs to upload each night ~100K of files that can be up to 1G but is strongly skewed towards small files (90% are less than 100 bytes and 99% are less than 1000 bytes long).

Does the s3 API support uploading multiple objects in a single HTTP call?

All the objects must be available in S3 as individual objects. I cannot host them anywhere else (FTP, etc) or in another format (Database, EC2 local drive, etc). That is an external requirement that I cannot change.

Is it possible to perform a batch upload to amazon s3?

What is the relationship between WCF and REST&amp;SOAP? Is WCF based on one of those technologies (REST or SOAP) or it is a separate technology?

I&#39;m having trouble understanding how to split a flask app into multiple files.

I&#39;m creating a web service and I want to split the api&#39;s into different files (AccountAPI.py, UploadAPI.py, ...), just so I don&#39;t have one huge python file.

I&#39;ve read that you can do this with Blueprints, but I&#39;m not entirely sure that route is the right one for me. 

Ultimately I want to run one Main python file and include other files so that when it runs, they are considered one big file.

For example if I have Main.py and AccountAPI.py I want to be able to do this:

Main.py:

    from flask import Flask
    import AccountAPI

    app = Flask(__name__)

    @app.route(&quot;/&quot;)
    def hello():
        return &quot;Hello World!&quot;

    if __name__ == &quot;__main__&quot;:
        app.run()

AccountAPI.py:

    @app.route(&quot;/account&quot;)
    def accountList():
        return &quot;list of accounts&quot;

I know with this example it obviously won&#39;t work, but is it possible to do something like that? 


Thanks

Split Python Flask app into multiple files

My question is, does anyone know how to set google maps up, to open up both my location and in a zoomed-in view?

Currently, the main view opens up to Africa, all the way zoomed out.

And so I have been searching for days now, and all I can find are:

1) You cannot animate two things (like zoom in and go to my location) in one google map? So if I can figure out how to set the zoom before I set the animate, then this problem would be solved. That tends to be the issue, you can change one, but not both.

2) I have found other classes that might be useful, but there is no help on how to set up the code so the class can manipulate the google map.

This is the code I have been holding on to so far, some works, some do not. Some I thought might be useful later on.

    package com.MYWEBSITE.www;

    import com.google.android.gms.maps.CameraUpdateFactory;
    import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;

		setContentView(R.layout.main_layout);
		
        map = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
        map.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
        
		//LocationSource a = (LocationSource) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
		//LocationManager b = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
        //map.setLocationSource(a);
        
        Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
        LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
        String provider = locationManager.getBestProvider(criteria, false);
        Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(provider);
        double lat =  location.getLatitude();
        double lng = location.getLongitude();
        LatLng coordinate = new LatLng(lat, lng);
        
        //CameraPosition.Builder x = CameraPosition.builder();
        //x.target(coordinate);
        //x.zoom(13);
        
        //Projection proj = map.getProjection();
        //Point focus = proj.toScreenLocation(coordinate);
        
        //map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(coordinate));
        map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomBy(13));
        //map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(coordinate));
        
        
        ////LatLngBounds bounds = mMap.getProjection().getVisibleRegion().latLngBounds;
	}

I need to close server after getting callback from `/auth/github/callback`
url. With usual **[HTTP API](http://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/http.html)** closing
server is currently supporting with [`server.close([callback])`](http://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/http.html)
API function, but with node-express server i’m getting `TypeError: Object function app(req, res){ app.handle(req, res); } has no method &#39;close&#39;`
error. And I don&#39;t know how to find information to solve this problem.  
**How should I close express server?**
	

NodeJS configuration notes:

	$ node --version
	v0.8.17
	$ npm --version
	1.2.0
	$ npm view express version
	3.0.6

Actual application code:

	var app = express();

	// configure Express
	app.configure(function() {
		// … configuration
	});

	app.get(
		&#39;/auth/github/callback&#39;,
		passport.authenticate(&#39;github&#39;, { failureRedirect: &#39;/login&#39; }),
		function(req, res) {
			res.redirect(&#39;/&#39;);
			
			setTimeout(function () {
				app.close();
				// TypeError: Object function app(req, res){ app.handle(req, res); } has no method &#39;close&#39;
			}, 3000)
		}
	);

	app.listen(&#39;http://localhost:5000/&#39;);

Also, I have found [‘nodejs express close…’](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13293257/nodejs-express-close-server-when-request-is-done?rq=1) but I don&#39;t sure if I can use it with code I have: `var app = express();`.

how to properly close node-express server?

We have a web application with a domain name of `example.com`. Now we want to extend a part of this application as a REST API, and we are debating on the best URL pattern.

We could use the URL pattern `api.example.com` or `example.com/api`. What trade-offs are there to consider, if any?

Additionally, what trade-offs are there regarding methods of API versioning? It could be done via the URL (`v1.api.example.com`, `example.com/api/v1`, or some strange mix `v1.example.com/api` or `api.example.com/v1`). Alternatively, it could be done through the use of HTTP request headers (or otherwise)?

What are the trade-offs between different methods of constructing API URLs: subdomain vs. subdirectory and versioning?

Is there any API or tool that enables me to automatically upload an APK to Google Play? I want to automatically publish customized apps to my account without any manual steps or graphical interface.

I searched around but could not find any API for doing this (only [android-publisher][1] but it doesn&#39;t support publishing, despite its name). Did anyone solve this already, seems like a basic feature?

I&#39;m trying to test a service that consumes RSS feeds and turns them into push notifications, and it would be nice if there was a very regularly updated publicly available RSS feed I could point it at.

I know I can just use a news feed like CNN, but I&#39;m wondering if there&#39;s something more &quot;Lorem Ipsum&quot; style for RSS.

Are there any constantly updating RSS feed services to use for testing, or just very active RSS feeds?

Now that API v2 is gone, what would be a way to get a simple RSS feed of a channel, without v3 API? I&#39;m open to Yahoo Pipes or any workaround that is simpler than creating an application for v3 API if the target is a feed reader. I only need an RSS feed. It was available publicly until now and it can cease any minute now (I think). So why not let access to it without an API key anymore.
