Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file

Add it in your root settings.gradle at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		}
	}

Add it in your settings.gradle.kts at the end of repositories:

	dependencyResolutionManagement {
		repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
		repositories {
			mavenCentral()
			maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
		}
	}

Add to pom.xml

	<repositories>
		<repository>
		    <id>jitpack.io</id>
		    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
		</repository>
	</repositories>

Add it in your build.sbt at the end of resolvers:

 
    resolvers += "jitpack" at "https://jitpack.io"

Add it in your project.clj at the end of repositories:

 
    :repositories [["jitpack" "https://jitpack.io"]]

Step 2. Add the dependency

	dependencies {
		implementation 'com.github.gentoku:pinnacle-api-client:'
	}
	dependencies {
		implementation("com.github.gentoku:pinnacle-api-client:")
	}
	<dependency>
	    <groupId>com.github.gentoku</groupId>
	    <artifactId>pinnacle-api-client</artifactId>
	    <version></version>
	</dependency>

                            
    libraryDependencies += "com.github.gentoku" % "pinnacle-api-client" % ""
        
        

                            
    :dependencies [[com.github.gentoku/pinnacle-api-client ""]]

Pinnacle Sports API Java Client

About

This is the Java client library for Pinnacle Sports API. You can get response as a plain JSON text or as a mapped Data Object prepared in this package.

Update

January 29th 2017

  • Removed every codes related with XML format due to their removal since December 15th 2016.
  • Implemented new operations Pinnacle added.
  • Changed structure of package.
  • Revised some details.

Usage

To set parameters

Create a new Parameter instance and set applicable parameters for each operation. You must set all of required parameters while you don't have to set optional parameters.

Parameter parameter = Parameter.newInstance();
parameter.sportId(29);
parameter.leagueIds(1980, 1977);
parameter.stake("25.50"); // decimal
parameter.fromDate(LocalDate.of(2017, 6, 30)); // datetime

Pinnacle Sports provides ENUMs for some parameters. All of official ENUMs (and some unofficial ENUMs) are prepared in this package.

parameter.betType(BET_TYPE.MONEYLINE);
parameter.oddsFormat(ODDS_FORMAT.AMERICAN);
parameter.periodNumber(PERIOD.SOCCER_MATCH); // unofficial

Operations for Parlay bet and Teaser bet require nested parameters called 'legs'. A leg represents a single line and Parlay bet and Teaser bet consist of multiple legs respectively. Create a new Parameter instance for each Leg.

Parameter leg1 = Parameter.newInstance();
leg1.uniqueLegId();
leg1.eventId(682273368);
leg1.legBetType(LEG_BET_TYPE.SPREAD);
leg1.team(TEAM_TYPE.TEAM_1);
leg1.handicap(new BigDecimal("-1.75"));
leg1.periodNumber(PERIOD.SOCCER_MATCH);

Parameter leg2 = Parameter.newInstance();
leg2.uniqueLegId();
leg2.eventId(682273372);
leg2.legBetType(LEG_BET_TYPE.SPREAD);
leg2.team(TEAM_TYPE.TEAM_2);
leg2.handicap("0.0");
leg2.periodNumber(0);

Parameter parameter = Parameter.newInstance();
parameter.legs(leg1, leg2);

Operation to place Special Bet requires nested parameter called 'bets'. You can bet multiple special bets simultaneously even if they are offered in different sports.

Parameter bet1 = Parameter.newInstance();
bet1.uniqueRequestId();
bet1.acceptBetterLine(true);
bet1.oddsFormat(ODDS_FORMAT.DECIMAL);
bet1.stake("100.00");
bet1.winRiskStake(WIN_RISK_TYPE.RISK);
bet1.lineId(46850206);
bet1.specialId(680281398);
bet1.contestantId(680281399);

Parameter bet2 = Parameter.newInstance();
bet2.uniqueRequestId();
bet2.acceptBetterLine(true);
bet2.oddsFormat(ODDS_FORMAT.DECIMAL);
bet2.stake("150.00");
bet2.winRiskStake(WIN_RISK_TYPE.RISK);
bet2.lineId(46865918);
bet2.specialId(686671592);
bet2.contestantId(686671598);

Parameter parameter = Parameter.newInstance();
parameter.bets(bet1, bet2);

These following operations require no parameter at all, therefore no need to create a Parameter instance.

  • Get Sports
  • Get Currencies
  • Get Client Balance
  • Get Inrunning
  • Get Cancellation Reasons

To get a response

Create a PinnacleAPI instance with your username and password.

PinnacleAPI api = new PinnacleAPI("username", "password");

You can also create an instance with encoded text, which is Base64 value of UTF-8 encoded "username:password"

String encodedCredentials = PinnacleAPI.encode("username", "password");
PinnacleAPI api = new PinnacleAPI(encodedCredentials);

Then you can get a JSON response.

String json = api.getLineAsJson(parameter);

Or you can get a response as a mapped Data Object.

Odds odds = api.getOddsAsObject(parameter);
PlacedBet placedBet = api.placeBetAsObject(parameter);

Data Objects

Types

Classes in pinnacle.api.dataobjects are prepared as Data Objects to be mapped from JSON responses. Each JSON value type will be set into these types respectively as following.

  • JSON number: Integer, Long, Enum
  • JSON string: String, Enum
  • JSON boolean: Boolean
  • JSON object: T extends AbstractDataObject
  • JSON array: List<T extends AbstractDataObject>
  • JSON null: Optional.empty()

When JSON doesn't have a key for a parameter, the value which will be set depends on whether the key is required or optional.

  • If required key not exists in JSON, the value will be: null or empty ArrayList, and isFlawed = true
  • if optional key not exists in JSON, the value will be: Optional.empty()

Note that Optional.empty() is used for different two purposes. For optional (not required) parameters, regardless whether or not a JSON response has these optional keys, an Object to be mapped must have fields for them. Optional<T> is literally useful for such a case. On the other hand, some parameters Pinnacle defined as 'required' are returned with JSON null, which should be dealt with Optional<T>. It is confusing but I couldn't find out any other solutions.

Empty JSON

Sometimes API returns an empty JSON like {}. Though I can't confirm what case makes this response, it seems not error but looks like they have just no answer. An empty Data Object with isEmpty = true status will be returned for such an empty JSON response.

Error JSON

When JSON response has two keys of 'code' and 'message', this package regards it as GenericException type and throws PinnacleException with TYPE.ERROR_RETURNED. GenericException are not prepared as a Data Object to be mapped, but you can check its JSON text by PinnacleException. Other type of errors, such as TEASER_LINES_ERROR_CODE or PLACEBET_ERROR_CODE, are mapped into a Data Object as 'errorCode' and no Exceptions will be thrown for them.

ENUMs

As mentioned above, all of ENUMs except BOOLEAN and BOOLEAN2 are prepared at pinnacle.api.enums. They are defined in UPPER_CASE_EMBEDDED_UNDERSCORE style and added one more element, 'UNDEFINED', which will be applied for any undefined values in response. Note that they may add/remove/change any value of ENUMs for future update.

Corrections

To map into Data Objects, there are some mismatched names, types, and values of parameter between on Official website and in an actual JSON response. They are respectively corrected as following. Note that conflict or error may be occurred when they correct them in future.

Get Settled Fixtures - Response

  • [lineId] Not exists in JSON (Required Yes -> Required No)

Get Special Fixtures - Response

  • [status] Not exists in ENUMs (BETTING_EVENT_STATUS -> EVENT_STATUS)

Get Odds - Response

  • [moneyLine] Not case sensitive. (moneyLine -> moneyline)
  • [maxMoneyLine] Not case sensitive. (maxMoneyLine -> maxMoneyline)

Get Special Odds - Response

  • [maxRisk] Different name used in JSON. (maxRisk -> maxBet)

Get Client Balance - Response

  • [currency] Incorrect type. (Decimal -> String)

Get Line - Response

  • [effectiveAsOf] Returned without time zone character. ("2017-01-10T16:07:55.1919" -> "2017-01-10T16:07:55.1919Z")

Get Parlay Line - Response

  • [RoundRobinOdds] Not case sensitive. (RoundRobinOdds -> roundRobinOdds)
  • [Odds] Not case sensitive. (Odds -> odds)

Get Bets - Response

  • [placedAt] Returned without time zone character. ("2017-01-28T08:47:57" -> "2017-01-28T08:47:57Z")

Requirements

  • Java 1.8 or later
