SeatgeekR

Install package

devtools::install_github("mgahan/SeatGeekR")
library(SeatGeekR)

Example

A R package that allows the user to scrape ticket information from the Seatgeek API

exampleOutput <- seatgeek_extract_slug(TEAM_NAME="nebraska-cornhuskers-football")
kable(exampleOutput[, .(title, stats.average_price, stats.highest_price, stats.listing_count, stats.lowest_price)])
title stats.average_price stats.highest_price stats.listing_count stats.lowest_price
Northwestern Wildcats at Nebraska Cornhuskers Football 100 601 1127 32
Nebraska Cornhuskers at Minnesota Golden Gophers Football 161 347 803 90
Nebraska Cornhuskers at Penn State Nittany Lions Football 208 1473 1376 98
Iowa Hawkeyes at Nebraska Cornhuskers Football 173 711 1560 65
Purdue Boilermakers at Nebraska Cornhuskers Football 209 216 3 204
Illinois Fighting Illini at Nebraska Cornhuskers Football 209 216 3 204

API Keys

Before accessing the API, you must visit the SeatGeek API and create your credentials here;

https://seatgeek.com/account/develop

Seatgeek makes it pretty easy to get your credentials. Also, as of this time, Seatgeek does not really seem to have limits on their API.

Team Names

Right now, this package has the main functionality of being able to search by team name. In the future, I hope to allow the app to search by more. I do have a list of teamnames available for those interested.

fpath <- system.file("Teams", "Team_Slug_Names.csv", package="SeatGeekR")
TeamNames <- fread(fpath)
kable(tail(TeamNames))
Sport Team Conference Division
NCAA Football missouri-tigers-football SEC East
NCAA Football ole-miss-rebels-football SEC West
NCAA Football south-carolina-gamecocks-football SEC East
NCAA Football tennessee-volunteers-football SEC East
NCAA Football texas-a-m-aggies-football SEC West
