I use npa_api requests to get play-by-play data for some games. The request works on my personal computer with python environment:
leaguegamefinder.LeagueGameFinder(player_or_team_abbreviation='T',date_from_nullable = Today,date_to_nullable = Today, league_id_nullable = '00', outcome_nullable = "W")
But I want to run my python code with the workflow tool of Github and, in that case, it gives me the following error:
requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='stats.nba.com', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=30)
I have seen that NBA API blacklists the request from some cloud hosting providers but I did not find a solution to pass this block (using different proxies or new headers does not seem to solve the prob) and I don't know if there is one though.
Does anybody have an idea about this kind of problem? Thanks a lot!
