Adding the score trough api or code?

    i’m trying to hook a live score api to your plugin, and would like to update the score automatically when a match is finished. And calculate the points?

    is there a way we can do that trough code?

    thanks in advance!

    You should be able to call the following to start a calculation:

    Football_Pool_Admin::update_score_history( 'force' );

    Thanks for the force refresh code, is there perhaps a same option for updating/adding scores from a certain match?

    Thanks in advance man

    I gave it another thought, and maybe it is better to copy some of the code in the two CLI classes for calculating the score and for importing results. Code can be found in the /cli folder

    Calculation CLI uses this construct

    $completed = 0;
    $error = false;
    $calc_args = array(
    	'force_calculation' => 'no',
    	'iteration' => 0,
    );

    while ( $completed !== 1 && $error === false ) {
    	$calc_args = Football_Pool_Admin_Score_Calculation::process( true, $calc_args );
    	extract( $calc_args, EXTR_OVERWRITE );
    }

    The results import just uses some SQL queries to update relevant tables.

    If you want to automate stuff, you can also consider writing your own CLI function, schedule it via a cron, and kick off my CLI functions once you’re done.
