This project involves data mining sportsbetting odds from various websites in realtime and reporting to a mySQL database. There is an API made so that once data is gathered properly from a site, its just a matter of connecting to the API to send the data. Not necessary to connect to a database and all the complications that can arise. Each site has data formatted in a slightly different way, so each site is slightly different. There is a parser of one site attached here so you can see the type of code you will be writing. I'd like to hire a team of at least 3-4 coders so this project can be completed within a short timeframe (2 months). It takes a coder about 4-8 hours per site to parse once familiar with the system. I'd hire for a small project (1 site) first, if that is done well would hire for the rest.
## Deliverables
Each site for the 5 major sports (US football, soccer, hockey, baseball, basketball), for all the leagues reported on that site .. all games and odds for all possible bets on that game must be reported.
## Platform
Linux/Windows python is multiplatform. It doesnt really matter what language this is coded in.
