rsssf gem - Tools & Scripts for the World's Largest Football (Soccer) Data Archive

Hello, I’ve put together a new rsssf library that that lets you work with rsssf archive pages. What’s the RSSSF? RSSSF stands for Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation and collects football (soccer) league tables, match results and more from all over the world online in plain text for over fifteen years. Today the rsss archive is the world’s largest football (soccer) data archive. (Note: I’m not associated with the RSSSF). Anyways, ever tried getting any of the plain text archive pages into an SQL database (with tables such as leagues, teams, matches, etc.)? The new rsssf scripts and repos get you started. Cheers.
