Details
Polite use. www.nationalleague.ch/robots.txt disallows /api, so keep use light and incremental. Requests
are spaced at least one second apart (on every attempt, retries included). Check the site's terms of use before
any bulk download or redistribution. Crawl incrementally: fetch a finished game once (keyed by game_id), find new games with one nl_schedule() call
per run, and fetch season tables at most once per game day.
Seasons are END years and go on the wire unchanged. Ids (*_id) are whole-number numeric (a 14-digit
game_id exceeds R's 32-bit integer); every other whole-number column is integer. The club backend key the
API ships in /teams/{id}/info is dropped before parsing and never returned.
Endpoint: GET https://www.nationalleague.ch/api/teams.
Errors
Raises a classed condition (all inherit fastRhockey_error): fastRhockey_no_data for a 404 or an empty answer (no
games or rows for that season, team or phase), fastRhockey_asset_fetch for a failed fetch, an error object in a 200, a body
without the ids it must carry, or an answer for another season, team, game or player, and fastRhockey_bad_request
for a 400/422 or an argument that is not a whole number.
