Arpad: ELO Rating System for Node.js

Build Status

This is an implementation of ELO for Node.js (ELO is named after Arpad Elo, hence the package name). This module is heavily tested and has many features used in real-world ELO situations.

Installation

npm install arpad

Simple Usage

This is a fairly simple example showing the most common usage for Arpad:

const Elo = require('arpad');
 
const elo = new Elo();
 
let alice = 1600;
let bob = 1300;
 
let new_alice = elo.newRatingIfWon(alice, bob);
console.log("Alice's new rating if she won:", new_alice); // 1605
 
let new_bob = elo.newRatingIfWon(bob, alice);
console.log("Bob's new rating if he won:", new_bob); // 1327

Complex Usage

This is a more complex example, making use of K-factor tables and score values:

const Elo = require('arpad');
 
const uscf = {
  default: 32,
  2100: 24,
  2400: 16
};
 
const min_score = 100;
const max_score = 10000;
 
const elo = new Elo(uscf, min_score, max_score);
 
let alice = 2090;
let bob = 2700;
 
let odds_alice_wins = elo.expectedScore(alice, bob);
console.log("The odds of Alice winning are about:", odds_alice_wins); // ~2.9%
alice = elo.newRating(odds_alice_wins, 1.0, alice);
console.log("Alice's new rating after she won:", alice); // 2121
 
odds_alice_wins = elo.expectedScore(alice, bob);
console.log("The odds of Alice winning again are about:", odds_alice_wins); // ~3.4%
alice = elo.newRating(odds_alice_wins, 1.0, alice);
console.log("Alice's new rating if she won again:", alice); // 2144
