This is a scraper that runs on Morph. To get started see the documentation.

This scraper downloads the current table of the English Football Premier League and stores it in a database. The data is then accessed via a JSON API for sonification with libPd.

The table is output as an array with each team being an object with the following format:

{
  pos: <integer, position 1-20>,
  team: <string, team name>,
  pts: <integer, points>,
  gf: <integer, goals for>,
  ga: <integer, goals against>,
  gd: <integer, goal difference>
}
