Tournament Governor

import { tournamentGovernor } from 'tods-competition-factory';

addExtension​

Adds an extension to a specified element in the tournament record. See examples: Follow By Implementation, 4. Manual Override.

engine.addExtension({
  extension, // required - extension object
  tournamentId, // optional - target tournament
  participantId, // optional - target participant
  eventId, // optional - target event
  drawId, // optional - target draw
  structureId, // optional - target structure
  matchUpId, // optional - target matchUp
});

Purpose: Attach custom metadata to tournament elements.

addMutationLock​

Acquires a mutation lock on a tournament element. Automatically enables the mutation locks feature gate on the tournament record.

const { success, lockId } = engine.addMutationLock({
  scope, // required - lock scope (e.g. 'SCHEDULING', 'SCORING', 'DRAWS')
  lockToken, // required - opaque string token
  expiresAt, // optional - ISO 8601 UTC string or null for permanent (default: null)
  methods, // optional - string[] to restrict to specific methods within scope
  drawId, // optional - lock on specific draw
  eventId, // optional - lock on specific event
  venueId, // optional - lock on specific venue
});

Purpose: Control concurrent access to scoped mutations. See Mutation Locks for details.

addNotes​

Adds notes to a tournament record or specific element.

engine.addNotes({
  notes, // required - string or notes object
  tournamentId, // optional - target tournament
  participantId, // optional - target participant
  eventId, // optional - target event
  drawId, // optional - target draw
});

Purpose: Add textual notes/comments to tournament entities.

addOnlineResource​

  organisationId, // optional
  participantId, // optional
  personId, // optional
  courtId, // optional
  venueId, // optional
  eventId, // optional
  drawId, // optional
});

analyzeDraws​

Analyzes all draws in a tournament to provide structural insights.

const { analysis } = engine.analyzeDraws();

Returns: Analysis of draw structures, including sizes, stages, and completeness.

analyzeTournament​

Provides comprehensive analysis of tournament structure and data.

const { analysis } = engine.analyzeTournament();

Returns: Tournament-level metrics including events, participants, draws, and matchUps.

copyTournamentRecord​

Creates a deep copy of a tournament record.

const { tournamentRecord } = engine.copyTournamentRecord({
  tournamentId, // optional - specific tournament
});

Purpose: Clone tournament data for modifications or comparisons.

cleanExpiredMutationLocks​

Proactively removes expired mutation locks from all elements in the tournament.

const { success, removedCount } = engine.cleanExpiredMutationLocks();

Purpose: Housekeeping for time-limited locks. Expired locks are also cleaned lazily when encountered during lock checks.

createTournamentRecord​

Creates a new tournament record.

const { tournamentRecord } = engine.createTournamentRecord({
  tournamentName, // optional
  startDate, // optional - 'YYYY-MM-DD'
  endDate, // optional - 'YYYY-MM-DD'

  localTimeZone, // optional - IANA timezone identifier (e.g. 'America/New_York')
  tournamentId, // optional - provide specific ID
  extensions, // optional - array of extensions (validated)
});

Purpose: Initialize a new tournament.

When activeDates is provided, each date is validated as a proper date string and all activeDates must fall within the startDate/endDate range — otherwise an INVALID_DATE error is returned. If startDate or endDate are not provided, they are automatically derived from the earliest and latest activeDates respectively, ensuring the tournament record always has valid date boundaries. Falsy values in the array are automatically filtered out. See Date and Time Handling for more on activeDates.

getAggregateTeamResults​

Returns aggregated results for team competitions across multiple tournaments.

const { results } = engine.getAggregateTeamResults({
  tournamentRecords, // required - array of tournament records
});

Purpose: Compile team standings across competitions.

});

Purpose: Get valid draw types for event creation.

getAllowedMatchUpFormats​

Returns allowed matchUp formats based on event type and configuration.

const { matchUpFormats } = engine.getAllowedMatchUpFormats({
  eventType, // optional

getCompetitionPenalties​

Returns all penalties across multiple tournaments in a competition.

const { penalties } = engine.getCompetitionPenalties({
  tournamentRecords, // required - array of tournament records
});

Purpose: Aggregate penalties across competition.

getMutationLocks​

Returns all active (non-expired) mutation locks across the entire tournament, including locks on events, draws, and venues.

const { mutationLocks } = engine.getMutationLocks({
  scope, // optional - filter by scope
});

Returns: Array of lock objects, each with lockId, lockToken, scope, expiresAt, createdAt, and optional drawId, eventId, venueId identifying where the lock is stored.

getPolicyDefinitions​

Returns attached policy definitions.

const { policyDefinitions } = engine.getPolicyDefinitions();

Purpose: Get tournament policy configurations.

getTournamentInfo​

Returns basic tournament information.

const { tournamentInfo } = engine.getTournamentInfo();

Returns: Tournament name, dates, location, and other metadata.

If a primary venue is designated and has at least one address, tournamentInfo.tournamentAddress will contain that venue's first address. This is always included regardless of the withVenueData option.

getTournamentPenalties​

const { penalties } = engine.getTournamentPenalties();

Purpose: Query tournament penalties.

getTournamentPersons​

hydrateTournamentRecord​

Currently only accepts the directive hydrateRoundNames: true. Use of eventProfiles is optional and allows granularity in application of round naming policy at the event level. If eventProfiles is used the top level directives and policyDefinitions are not necessary.

engine.hydrateTournamentRecord({
  policyDefinitions: POLICY_ROUND_NAMING_DEFAULT,
  directives: { hydrateRoundNames: true },
  eventProfiles: [{
    directives: { hydrateRoundNames: true }
    policyDefinitions: {},
    eventId: 'eventId',
  }]
})
