NBA Draft 🎃

Crawling data from https://www.basketball-reference.com/draft/

• DDL.sql defined the database schema, I use MySQL dialect here but theoretically it works in most common databases.
• requirements.txt defined the Python packages I use.
  • beautifulsoup to parse html data
  • requests to send http requests
  • pymysql to interact with database
  • Life is short, I use Python : )
• They write messy code (such as uncommenting code blocks in the runtime to dynamically display data 💩). Anyway, if you find some abnormal ways to parse data from the website, thanks to their 💥
• run python3 crawler.py to begin the journey!
