CFB Scoreboard API

A simple college football JSON API that re-parses ESPN's internal college football API to strip unnecessary data and make it more useable (and useful!).

Built with Node.js and Heroku.

NOTE: the historical data API hosted at https://collegefootballapi.com that this service uses has gone down. Please refrain from using historical data for now.

Running Locally

Make sure you have Node.js and the Heroku Toolbelt installed.

$ git clone git@github.com:akeaswaran/cfb-scoreboard-api.git # or clone your own fork
$ cd cfb-scoreboard-api
$ npm install
$ npm start

Your app should now be running on localhost:5000.

Deploying your own version to Heroku

$ heroku create
$ git push heroku master
