Scripts
TableStar comes with a set of useful scripts that can help automate your editorial workflow when creating and maintaining sport content.
For each type of scripts we offer a downloadable archive which includes importable Sophora XML files.
If you want to learn about the functionality of each script, please consult the Javadoc of each script.
Configuration Document
The files also contain a configuration document for TableStar that contains the following keys:
| Key | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| tablestar.import.matchrounds.blacklist | Used in the TableStar import process to ignore all match rounds that are configured here. You may also use regular expressions to exclude all match rounds that match the expression. |
|
Example Documents
The provided ZIP does also contain several example documents for point awards, sort modes, sports, data tables, sport menus, shorthands and teletext configuration.
These will all be located at /system/sportergebnisse. If you create new documents you should not locate them under /system since this structure node is usually not accessible by non-admin users. If you want to use any of the provided example documents, you should move them to an accessible structure node.
The content of the example documents is not guaranteed to be complete or correct. These are simple examples without liability.
Importing the Configuration Files
The installation instructions and explanations below assume that you already have an installation of the Teletext Generator up and running. Especially make sure that you already imported the Teletext configuration files.
You should add the provided configuration files to your version control system to easily track and revert any changes you do to the files. This will also simplify the merge of changes made by us in future releases into your adapted configuration files.
Partners and clients with a Sophora-account can obtain detailed technical information from software.subshell.com. The information may include code examples, demos or JavaDocs depending on the module and context.
The ZIP containing all above described configuration files can be downloaded from software.subshell.com.
After extracting the files, you got 2 possibilities to import the files into your Sophora instance:
- Import the files by inserting them into the watch folder of your running Sophora Importer instance.
