[REQUEST] add "timestamp" parameter instead of "7:30 PM ET"

Open CyrilNb opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

Hello,

I live in Europe and it would be more convenient to have timestamp parameter in addition to "7:30 PM ET" as it's hard to convert into any other timezone.

Thanks a lot!

If you're using JS, you could just use a library like day.js to convert to whatever format you need. I've used it a decent amount if you have any questions. Moment JS is also good, but I think it may be deprecated

No I am not using JS. And it's still better to have a universal format like a timestamp

+1 I think it would be the best to include the correct time in the date parameter.

@ynnadkrap would it be possible? Thank you so much. I'm struggling with the date and time format the API is sending

Yes the best is a timestamp including the our. And include in the date attribute. Because in status then we dont know at which our was the date when the game ends. Eg

When the status is "Final" we lost the our of previous games
