Plugin for getting the schedules of upcoming soccer fixtures

Post by FUR10N »

I had originally written it just for personal use, but I think others might find it useful. The plugin is in C#, so I think you will need at least version 2.0 (all testing was with 2.1).

So, what it does is pull upcoming fixtures from various leagues. It uses data from http://msn.foxsports.com/foxsoccer/ so you can use any league that shows up there, but only the ones listed in the readme have been tested. For me that site uses Eastern Standard time, and I'm not sure if it is based on your location or not. So, I may need to release an update that allows for different time zones.

Main features:
  • Specify any combination of leagues
  • Choose to only shows games featuring certain teams
  • Specify the max number of lines to return
  • Only show a specified number of upcoming matchdays
  • Show the schedules for the next x number of days (regardless if there are games on that date or not)
More information is in the readme. There are versions for x86 and x64, but I've only tested x64. I just finished it, so there may certain configurations that crash Rainmeter.

Suggestions are welcome.
