Subject: [omaha] Big News! Robin Dunn hired by UNMC
Message-ID: <5aaed53f0804032027s71e7bef8r2c6747c448da67b8@mail.gmail.com>

Now here is a little bit of fame and possibly a bit of good luck for
us.  Robin Dunn of wxPython fame has been hired on as a consultant by
our friends over at UNMC.  The link to his post is here:
http://wxpython.org/blog/2008/04/03/tranquility-base-here-the-robin-has-landed/

I've already emailed him to ask him to speak at one of our meetings.

If any of our UNMC friends would like to fill us in on any more of the
details, I'm all ears<g>

That is really cool!  I know that UNMC does some Python/wxPython so I  
can't help but think they need something customized.

I would love to hear him talk . . .

Robin said that I was the second one to bring up the possibility of
speaking at a users group meeting.  I'm not sure who the first one was
but I'm guessing Matt H.

Speaking of Matt -- I've been totally oblivious to the fact that he
gave a presentation at PyCon 2006.
http://wiki.python.org/moin/PyCon2006/Talks  Matt has been to a couple
of meetings.  I wonder...

Matt:  Any chance you would like to speak at the next meeting?  Topic
of your choice. ;)

Message-ID: <18e3f33d0804080931j31ea209bvfe59d3f14e3b9302@mail.gmail.com>

Short background actull problem below:

MLB decided they should be the only ones allowed to stream baseball
games online. And that its worth $14.95 for the privilege of listening
to the audio. They also assume that everyone is using windows and have
two different player options, Windows Media Player or Silverlight.

Using mostly the same code i used for my Sirius online player (sipie)
i fake i can fake i am a windows browser and login and get the stream
url that can be feed to mplayer and then you can listen on Linux. What
you need is the game ID to know what stream to request.

This page has a chart of current games and links to there media player
to listen to them. The links have the game id in them.
http://mlb.mlb.com/mediacenter/index.jsp

Although its a static page all the games are loaded via ajax after the
html is loaded. AJAX would be super easy to parse, expect they forgot
the XML part and have dynamically generated JavaScript that has all
the info in it.

That JavaScript is page here:
http://mlb.mlb.com/components/game/year_2008/month_04/day_08/gamesbydate.jsp

What i need to do is take data from that page and extract what i want.

So here's the real problem.
The JavaScript for a game is like this:

I need to extract the team names (its after code:), who is playing at

Any ideas?

Subject: [omaha] parsing JavaScript problem

Short background actull problem below:

MLB decided they should be the only ones allowed to stream baseball
games online. And that its worth $14.95 for the privilege of listening
to the audio. They also assume that everyone is using windows and have
two different player options, Windows Media Player or Silverlight.

Using mostly the same code i used for my Sirius online player (sipie)
i fake i can fake i am a windows browser and login and get the stream
url that can be feed to mplayer and then you can listen on Linux. What
you need is the game ID to know what stream to request.

This page has a chart of current games and links to there media player
to listen to them. The links have the game id in them.
http://mlb.mlb.com/mediacenter/index.jsp

Although its a static page all the games are loaded via ajax after the
html is loaded. AJAX would be super easy to parse, expect they forgot
the XML part and have dynamically generated JavaScript that has all
the info in it.

That JavaScript is page here:
http://mlb.mlb.com/components/game/year_2008/month_04/day_08/gamesbydate
.jsp

What i need to do is take data from that page and extract what i want.

So here's the real problem.
The JavaScript for a game is like this:

{
    condensed_video: null,
    gameid: '2008/04/08/phimlb-nynmlb-1',
    teams: [{
            isHome: false,
            runs: null,
            code: 'phi'
        }, {
            isHome: true,
            runs: null,
            code: 'nym'
        }],
    status: 'P',
    event_time: ' 1:10 PM',
    home_audio: {
        blackout: 'local',
        text: 'WFAN',
        media_type: 'audio',
        urls: [{
                blackout: 'local',
                speed: '12',
                url: {
                    w:

                    w_id: '620882',
                    v: '2',
                    login: 'Y',
                    authorization: 'Y',
                    mid: '200803172432841',

            }],
        is_free: false,
        state: 'audio_pregame'
    },
    away_audio: {
        blackout: 'local',
        text: 'WPHT',
        media_type: 'audio',
        urls: [{
                blackout: 'local',
                speed: '12',
                url: {
                    w:

                    pid: 'mlb_ga',
                    fid: 'a12',
                    url:

                    id: '620884',
                    gid: '2008/04/08/phimlb-nynmlb-1'
                },
                state: null
            }],
        is_free: false,
        state: 'audio_pregame'
    },
}

I need to extract the team names (its after code:), who is playing at
home, and the w_id of the home_audio and away_audio.

Any ideas?

Ha! I was just working on the same thing, but Jeff beat me to it.

It's for sure JSON.? 

>> import demjson
>> mlb = demjson.decode( file('mlb.js').read())
>>>
mlb['teams'][0]
{u'code': u'phi', u'runs': None, u'isHome': False}
>>> mlb['teams'][1]
{u'code': u'nym', u'runs': None,
u'isHome': True}

Whoah... Looks like I should learn Python this year?  :)

Anyone played with this?

There is no waiting list for the documentation and downloadable SDK (including 
schema-less database engine). ;-) You can fire it up locally and do everything 
they show locally, and even host it yourself.

Grab the download file, unpack it, and enter one command to have a sample 
guestbook app up and running on localhost:8080.  Now change the Python source, 
HTML, or CSS and hit reload and you see your change.  Makes for a very 
agile/iterative development style.

very true -- thanks for pointing that out.  The dev methodology for GAE
seems to be well thought out, local independent dev, versioned uploads,
support for testing one version will keeping another live.

nice.

Oh, very cool. Too bad I didn't see this message until the end of my
lunch break. Now I have to wait until tonight to try it.

Very interesting security model. Maybe this will draw attention to
python as a more universal web app language.

I'm really impressed with the security model they have. It really
shows some excellent engineering behind the scenes.

I also like the authentication. Built in SSO as simple as :

from google.appengine.api import users

user = users.get_current_user()
if user:
    self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'text/plain'
    self.response.out.write('Hello, ' + user.nickname())
else:
    self.redirect(users.create_login_url(self.request.uri))

I'm only reading tonight but look forward to trying the code out.
