Get Started

In order to get started we need to install the following dependencies which are as follows:

npm init -y

This will initialize a package.json file for your app which contains the basic information about the app.

npm i express

npm i ejs

npm i request

npm i cric-player-info

Screenshots

Live Demo

You can see the live demo of the app here

Building the App

Now to build the app we need to create the index.js file and copy paste the following code to start the express server

const express = require('express')
const cricData= require('cric-player-info');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser')
const app = express()

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended:false}))
app.use(bodyParser.json())
app.set('view engine','ejs')

app.get('/',(req,res) =>{
    res.render('index')
})

app.listen(5000,() =>{
    console.log("App is listening on Port 5000")
})

const express = require('express')

const cricData= require('cric-player-info');

const bodyParser = require('body-parser')

const app = express()

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended:false}))

app.use(bodyParser.json())

app.set('view engine','ejs')

app.get('/',(req,res) =>{

res.render('index')

})

app.listen(5000,() =>{

console.log("App is listening on Port 5000")

})

Now we need to create the views folder and inside this we need to create a file called as index.ejs and copy paste the following code

views/index.ejs

<!DOCTYPE html>

  <head>
    <title>Cricket Player Stats App</title>

  <style>
    .ui-autocomplete {
      max-height: 300px;
      overflow-y: auto;
      /* prevent horizontal scrollbar */
      overflow-x: hidden;
    }

  <body>
    <div class="container">
      <form id="form">
        <div class="form-group">
          <label for="player">Player Name</label>
          <input
            class="form-control"
            id="playername"
            placeholder="Enter Player Name"
            required
          />
        </div>
        <div class="form-group">
          <button class="btn btn-danger btn-block">Get Player Info</button>
        </div>
      </form>
      <div id="result"></div>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

So now after this we need to inject the player names when the user types inside the input field making a autocomplete suggestion field. For this we will be making use of AJAX and we will be making several ajax calls to the express server

<script>
    var playerNames = [];
    var result;
    var inputplayer;
    $("#playername").on("keyup", function () {
      inputplayer = $(this).val();
      $.ajax({
        method: "POST",
        url: "/getplayernames",
        data: { input: $(this).val() },
        success: function (data) {
          //console.log(data.names)
          playerNames = data.names;
          let match = playerNames.filter((name) => {
            const regex = new RegExp(`^${inputplayer}`, "gi");
            return name.match(regex);
          });

          if (inputplayer.length === 0) {
            playerNames = [];
          }

          $("#playername").autocomplete({
            source: match,
          });
        },
      });
    });

    $("#playername").on("change", function () {
      inputplayer = $(this).val();
    });

    $("#form").submit(function (e) {
      e.preventDefault();

      $("#button").text("Fetching Player Stats")

      $("#button").prop("disabled","true")

      $("#result").empty()

      $.ajax({
        method: "POST",
        url: "/getplayerinfo",
        data: { playername: inputplayer },
        success: function (data) {
          console.log(data.info);
          
          if(data.info == "Player not found")
          {
            $("#playername").val("")
          $("#button").removeAttr("disabled");  
          $("#button").text("Get Player Info")
            swal("Error", "Player Name Doesn't Found", "error");
          }else{

          $("#playername").val("")
          $("#button").removeAttr("disabled"); 
          $("#button").text("Get Player Info")

          result = `
