This example shows a fantasy Premier League team-change recommender that identifies the best player to transfer out and the strongest replacement for a given team. The code calculates a weight for each player on the current roster, combining form, difficulty, chance of playing, and position, then selects the lowest-weight player to drop. It similarly scores all available players at the same position within budget and picks the highest-weight candidate. The tool pulls live data from the Fantasy Premier League API using `requests` and processes it with `pandas`, while the lambda handler returns a simple text result like "Player A -> Player B".

This example shows a fantasy Premier League transfer suggestion tool that selects one player to swap out and one to bring in for a given team. It calculates a budget based on the current squad’s bank and the outgoing player’s cost, then filters potential replacements by position and team restrictions. The code uses the FPL API endpoints for bootstrap-static and entry event picks, with pandas for data manipulation and weighting logic. It randomly picks an outgoing player weighted by `out_weight` and an incoming player weighted by `in_weight`, then returns the transfer as a JSON response via a lambda function.

This example shows a serverless recommendation system that suggests a single player transfer for a Fantasy Premier League team, identifying one player to sell and one to buy. It displays the result as a simple text message, such as "PlayerName -> PlayerName". The code uses AWS Lambda with Python, retrieving player data from an S3 bucket and fetching current team picks from the Fantasy Premier League API. It calculates transfer suggestions by filtering potential replacements based on position, budget, and team constraints, then sorts players by pre-computed in/out weight columns in the CSV data. The implementation relies on the pandas library for data manipulation and the requests library for API calls.

This visualization tracks fantasy Premier League player transfer momentum by calculating weighted "in" and "out" scores from fixture difficulty, player form, and selection chance. It uses a Python AWS Lambda function to fetch live data from the Fantasy Premier League API, merge it with bookmaker odds stored in an S3 bucket, and output a CSV of player weights per gameweek. The code relies on `pandas` for data manipulation, `boto3` for cloud storage access, and `requests` for API calls, with team strengths and fixture probabilities driving the transfer recommendations.

This visualization demonstrates a Fantasy Premier League (FPL) team selection process, showing how player data is analyzed to determine which player to transfer out each gameweek. The code uses pandas DataFrames to calculate a weighted "out weight" for each player based on their form, difficulty (diff), and position, then randomly selects a player to drop using the `sample()` method with these weights. It leverages the `fpl_utils` library to fetch team data, retrieve player statistics from an S3 bucket, and upload the result as JSON. The underlying data comes from CSV files containing player gameweek statistics, with the output stored for future gameweek planning.

This visualization recommends Fantasy Premier League (FPL) transfers and starting lineups by analyzing player data. It shows a suggested player substitution, optimal starting eleven, captain pick, and bench order based on calculated in/out weights. The code fetches a user’s current team via the FPL API, merges it with precomputed player statistics from a CSV stored in Amazon S3, and applies a greedy selection algorithm. It uses Python with pandas for data manipulation, requests for API calls, and boto3 for S3 retrieval, exposing results through an AWS Lambda function via API Gateway.

This example shows how a fantasy football team automatically selects a replacement player after an injury, using a weighted random choice. It calculates an “in_weight” score based on a player’s difficulty, form, and cost, then samples one candidate from the remaining eligible players. The code reads team and player data from CSV and JSON files in Amazon S3, processes it with pandas, and uploads the chosen player’s details back to S3. It relies on the `fpl_utils` helper for authenticated API calls, S3 operations, and SNS notifications, while AWS Lambda triggers the workflow.

This example shows a Fantasy Premier League team update workflow that automatically selects a squad for the upcoming gameweek when the transfer deadline is within 24 hours. The code fetches live player and fixture data from the Fantasy Premier League API, merges team strength ratings with player records, and calculates a difficulty differential for each player based on home or away status. It uses pandas for data manipulation and merging, and the `requests` library to retrieve JSON responses from the API. The visualization is not graphical; instead, it demonstrates a programmatic data-processing pipeline with no charts or rendering, focusing solely on data preparation and conditional logic.

This example shows how a Fantasy Premier League team is automatically updated each gameweek, selecting starters and substitutes based on player form and difficulty. The code calculates a starting weight for each player by combining their recent form and fixture difficulty, then sorts the squad to pick the strongest starting lineup. It uses pandas DataFrames to manipulate player data, boto3 to interact with S3 buckets, and AWS Lambda to run the logic as a serverless function. The final team sheet, including captain and vice-captain assignments, is uploaded as JSON for later retrieval.
