Technical Details

Implementation

The skill uses direct HTTP requests (aiohttp) and HTML parsing (BeautifulSoup) because:

1. No Public API: The site does not expose a JSON API for event data
2. Server-Side Rendering: All event data is embedded in the HTML
3. Static Content: Events are rendered server-side, not loaded via JavaScript

HTML Structure

Events are structured with specific CSS classes:

<div class="eventItem">
  <div class="date">
    <span class="m-date__month">Apr</span>
    <span class="m-date__day">7</span>
    <span class="m-date__year">, 2025</span>
  </div>
  <h3 class="title">
    <a href="/events/detail/gem-1">G.E.M.</a>
  </h3>
  <a class="tickets" href="https://ticketmaster.ca/...">
    Buy Tickets
  </a>
</div>

Error Handling

The skill returns structured error responses rather than raising exceptions:

• Missing parameters return {'error': 'message'}
• HTTP failures return {'error': 'description', 'url': url}
• Parsing failures are logged but don't crash

Rate Limiting

Default limits:

• 2 requests per second
• 30 requests per minute

Caching Recommendations

• Event listings: 5 minutes (events change infrequently)
• Event details: 1 hour (rarely change once published)

Limitations

1. No Real-Time Availability: Ticket availability shown is from page load, not live inventory
2. Partial Details: Some events may not have all fields populated
3. Website Structure Changes: If the site redesigns, selectors may need updating

Use Cases

• Event discovery and aggregation
• Venue schedule monitoring
• Ticket link extraction for affiliate/bot purposes
• Event cancellation tracking
• Sports schedule tracking (Toronto Tempo WNBA games)
