Fantasy Football Machine Learning, an excuse to finally teach myself docker-type development
I'm playing around with docker-compose to set up a fantasy football machine learning thing.
Goals:
- get a basic REST-type API for importing/reading the relevant statistics
- this includes getting a basic webapp running using docker, mysql, and django
- fire up some sort of crawler to import data I need
- likely using beautifulsoup or something, I can't model my friends/competitor's draft styles without past data
- note that I won't have the rights to distribute said data, so it will be kept secret and loaded into this open-source infrastructure
- start machine learning
- there's a LOT to potentially do here, let me get comfortable with the rest of it first.
