Every shift of one match, one row per player shift.
Wraps GET https://s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/de.hokejovyzapis.cz/matches/{match_id}/shiftsSC.json of the DEL eSports bucket. Example: https://s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/de.hokejovyzapis.cz/matches/4444/shiftsSC.json.
Seasons are END years (2027 = 2026/27); every request waits at least one second after
the last one to the same host.
Value
A tibble::tibble() with one row per row of the file (zero rows, carrying the documented columns, for an empty frame); the raw JSON list when return_parsed = FALSE. Columns:
| col_name | type | description |
| shift_id | integer | Shift id within the shift files. |
| start_time | integer | Shift start, game second. |
| start_real_time | character | Shift start, local wall clock. |
| end_time | integer | Shift end, game second. |
| end_real_time | character | Shift end, local wall clock. |
| player_id | integer | Player id (player key space, per bucket, stable across games and seasons); joins to playerId in rosters, events, boxscores and leaderboards. |
| player_name | character | Player full name. |
| team_id | integer | Team id (team key space, per bucket, stable across seasons); joins to league-matches home.id / guest.id and the {team_id} path param. |
| team_name | character | Team display name. |
| duration | integer | Shift length in seconds (end_time - start_time). |
Errors
Signalled as classed conditions: fastRhockey_no_data when the bucket has no such key (S3 404 NoSuchKey: unknown season, competition, match or team) or the file holds no rows (an unplayed game, an empty shot shell); fastRhockey_asset_fetch for any other non-2xx answer (403 AccessDenied), a connection failure after retries, an empty or unreadable 200 body, an error envelope, a body of the wrong shape, or a body for another season or game; fastRhockey_bad_request for an HTTP 400/422 or an invalid argument. All three also inherit fastRhockey_error. Wrappers raise; they never warn and return an empty frame.
