Supported Languages
Our currently supported languages are Python (bouvard) and PHP (chaunceyt).
We prefer Python. However, It is the intention of this project to lower the barrier of entry for contributors as far as possible. And because of the relatively isolated nature of the scraper scripts it is possible to support multiple languages in this project. Although it is preferred that Python be used whenever possible, if it is a choice between using Python and not submitting code, then please submit the code in the language you feel comfortable in. That said, a previously unsupported language must meet the following criteria before it will be admitted to the master branch:
- Can be executed from the command line,
- without compilation,
- and with tools readily available on all platforms (including dependent language libraries).
- Someone must have done the work of writing an EventScraper-analogue that has reached feature-parity with the Python version.
Please keep in mind that the preference is for Python and that a Python version of a given scraper will be preferred over any other version.
