This project was created after https://www.timing71.org/ was forced to take his amazing live timing screen offline. You can load this with any JSON feed that fits the format 😉😉, if you look around the LEMONS site you can find it. Mind you, you might need a bit of technological knowledge to get it running. You can follow me on twitter for help, send it through DM or email me at info@voxapex.nl
Create a .env file in the root of the project with FEED_URL=someurl.json
or replace it in the TimingsController file.
To run the project make sure you can run any Ruby on Rails project https://gorails.com/setup
After installing everything you need you should be able to run rails server and go to localhost:3000 in your browser
Follow all the action at RadioLemans! Follow RadioLemans on twitter as well.
As of last race, Portimao 8HR, the feed that was available before isn't anymore apparently (thanks Gareth for pointing it out in this issue). When the next race is on (6H Monza) I will try to fix this but it might be that they fixed their feed so you cannot access it anymore from a different source. If so I will close this project since there are other ways to then get a better timing, like the extention Better Timing
git clone git@github.com:Marthyn/timing_lemons.git
cd timing_lemons
bundle
FEED_URL=look_for_this_on_wec_site rails server
In timings.coffee you can set some settings like blinking sector times or intervals when cars are close to eachother or settings times close to their fast times, you can also change the highlighted lines that i favorited.
