IFSC Climbing Calendar and Live-Streams for 2024

ifsc logo



downloads scrutinizer update build


πŸ“– TL;DR

This automatically generates an up-to-date calendar you can subscribe to using your favorite calendar app, to never miss an IFSC climbing event ever again. Currently supported formats are .ics (iCal) and json.

How?

Copy and paste this calendar URL https://calendar.ifsc.stream into your calendar subscriptions, and it will automatically sync with your device. This works on iPhone, Google Calendar, Proton Calendar, etc... This should keep you updated on future seasons as well.

Take a look at the setup guides for help.

πŸ–₯️ Web Version

Additionally, the calendar data is exported as JSON and can be viewed on this automatically updated website:

(From there you can also subscribe to the calendar with just a few clicks!)

πŸ‘‹ Intro

If you're constantly missing IFSC events because of a lacking calendar, or timezone confusions, then you're at the right place.

This command line tool uses IFSC's APIs, plus some scraping (because the available APIs don't provide precise schedules) to generate an always up-to-date calendar with all necessary info.

⭐️ Features

  • Updates automatically every hour
  • Fetches schedules directly from IFSC's website (using some APIs and fancy scraping)
  • Converts times to your local timezone
  • Alerts an hour before events start
  • Fetches stream URLs (and searches YouTube for missing ones)
  • Works for future seasons once dates are published (may require some tweaks)
  • Fetches start list for events
  • Works on any calendar (not just Google)
  • Fully open source
