ELO Calculator

Build Status Quality Gate Status Bugs Code Smells Coverage

This package makes using the ELO ranking system easy. To get started you just need to decide what you want your starting ELO. After that, you can start calculating win probabilities based on two player's ELO scores and also determining the ELO of a player after a match.

It's very simple.

Installation

To install this package.

npm i toefungi-elo-calculator

Usage

You're first going to want to import the relevant files and instantiate a new instance of the EloCalculator.

import { EloCalculator } from 'toefungi-elo-calculator'
 
const eloCalculator: EloCalculator = new EloCalculator()

Here is a basic example of calculating a new ELO value.

import { ScoringBonus } from 'toefungi-elo-calculator'
 
// Declared player variables
const playerElo = 2149
const opponentElo = 2084
 
// Calculate ELO based on the outcome of the game without taking into account 
// Player performance or the score difference in the game
eloCalculator.calculateElo(playerElo, opponentElo, ScoringBonus.WIN)
  .then((elo: number) => {
    console.log(elo) // The new ELO
  })
  
// Take into account the numerical difference in the score to determine the ELO
// This will make the ELO change more dynamic as it computes slightly differently
// And will more accurately split the higher players from the lower players
// In terms of their ELO
const scoreDiff = 4
 
eloCalculator.calculateElo(playerElo, opponentElo, ScoringBonus.WIN, scoreDiff)
  .then((elo: number) => {
    console.log(elo) // The new ELO
  })

Here is a basic example of calculating win probabilities between two players.

import { Probabilities } from 'toefungi-elo-calculator'
 
// Declared player variables
const playerElo = 2149
const opponentElo = 2084
 
// Calculate ELO based on the outcome of the game
eloCalculator.caluclateWinProbability(playerElo, opponentElo)
  .then((probability: Probabilities) => {
    console.log(probability.player) // Probability player will win
    console.log(probability.opponent) // Probability opponent will win
  })
