Automation

This repo is refreshed by the Update WNBA Stats Data GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/daily_wnba_stats.yml), which calls scripts/daily_wnba_stats_R_processor.sh to invoke the R generation scripts under R/.

Cron schedule (UTC)

The workflow runs once a day at 08:00 UTC, offset one hour from the parallel ESPN workflow in wehoop-wnba-data so the two jobs do not contend for the same proxy pool. Four cron entries cover the WNBA calendar:

• 0 8 18-31 10 * — daily, October 18 through 31 (preseason / season tip-off).
• 0 8 * 11-12 * — daily, every day in November and December.
• 0 8 * 1-6 * — daily, every day from January through June (regular season).
• 0 8 1-12 7 * — daily, July 1 through 12 (lead-up to the All-Star break).

Triggers

• repository_dispatch event type: daily_wnba_stats_data.

• Manual run via the GitHub UI (Actions tab -> Update WNBA Stats Data -> Run workflow) or from the CLI:

  gh workflow run daily_wnba_stats.yml -f start_year=2024 -f end_year=2024

  When start_year / end_year are omitted the workflow defaults both to wehoop::most_recent_wnba_season().

Proxy list

The R generation scripts read a proxy list from ../../proxylist.csv (relative to the repository checkout). The workflow writes that file at job start from the WNBA_STATS_PROXY_LIST GitHub Actions secret (CSV body with columns ip,port,login,password). Set the secret on the repo to enable proxied calls to the WNBA Stats API.
