How to add a new gym

If you know a gym that shows the occupancy data, we can add it to the app!

We usually have a list of gyms to add in the issues so if it's there, just write a comment saying which gym you would like to work on. If it's a new gym, then please follow these steps:

1. Fork the repo
2. Add gym information in gymdata.json
   • Gym name
   • Gym website URL
   • Gym location
   • Latitude
   • Longitude
   • Name of the function for scraping
3. In capture-data/web_scrape.py, add a new function with the name that you specified in the json before.
   • This function should take the gym_name (str) and url (str) as input
   • The function should return the occupancy number (int)
   • Make sure there's try/except so that the function doesn't crash!
4. Make a pull request
5. We will review it
6. Gym added 🏋️
