Get Matchup / Scoring Period Dynamically

[j-per]

I wrote a little Discord Bot App that fetches box score data from our league. I'm currently returning scores based on a hard coded matchup/scoring period. Does anybody know how to get the matchup / scoring period dynamically based on the current week? Here is my code:

`const { Client } = require('espn-fantasy-football-api/node');
const { getName } = require('./player-mapping');
require('dotenv').config();

const leagueId = process.env.espn_leagueid;
const espnS2 = process.env.espn_espnS2;
const SWID = process.env.espn_swid;
const seasonId = process.env.espn_seasonid;

const myClient = new Client({ leagueId });

myClient.setCookies({ espnS2, SWID });

async function getEspnData() {
const getScores = await myClient.getBoxscoreForWeek({
seasonId,
matchupPeriodId: 1,
scoringPeriodId: 1
});
const matchupData = createEmbedFields(getScores);
const embedded = embedData(matchupData);
return embedded;
}

function createEmbedFields(boxScore) {
const matchupArrayData = boxScore.map(scores => {
const awayTeamId = getName(scores.awayTeamId.toString());
const homeTeamId = getName(scores.homeTeamId.toString());
const awayPoints = scores.awayScore.toString();
const homePoints = scores.homeScore.toString();
return [
{
name: awayTeamId,
value: awayPoints,
inline: true
},
{
name: homeTeamId,
value: homePoints,
inline: true
},
{
name: '\u200B',
value: '\u200B'
}
]
})
.flat();
return matchupArrayData;
}

function embedData(teamData) {
const fflEmbed = {
color: 0x0099ff,
title: 'Current Scores',
fields: teamData,
timestamp: new Date(),
};
return { embeds: [fflEmbed] }
}

module.exports = {
getEspnData,
embedData
};`

I created an endpoint to fetch the league data from the base URL and pull from the scoringPeriodId there. Then inside my functions if I dont pass a week into them - I usually run some logic to pull this data.

const getTeams = async (week, year = seasonId) => {
let scoringPeriod;
if (!week) {
scoringPeriod = await getCurrentWeek();
} else {
scoringPeriod = week;
}
...
};

const fetchLeagueEndpoint = async () => {
const apiUrl = ${ESPN_FFL_ENDPOINT}/seasons/${seasonId}/segments/0/leagues/${LEAGUE_ID};
return axios
.get(apiUrl, {
headers: {
Cookie: SWID=${SWID}; espn_s2=${ESPN_S2},
},
})
.then((response) => {
console.info("Successfully fetched league endpoint");
return response.data;
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error("Error fetching league endpoint:\n", error);
throw Error("Error fetching league endpoint.");
});
};

const getCurrentWeek = async () => {
try {
const { scoringPeriodId } = await fetchLeagueEndpoint();
console.info("Successfully got current week: ", scoringPeriodId);
return scoringPeriodId;
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error fetching current week:\n", error);
throw Error("Error fetching current week.");
}
};
