Functions and values

Function or value	Description
`deserialiseOdds payload` Full Usage: `deserialiseOdds payload` Parameters: payload : `byte[]` - UTF-8 or Shift-JIS encoded JSON byte array. Returns: `Result<RaceOdds list, XanthosError>` A list of RaceOdds or a XanthosError.	Deserialises odds snapshots from JSON. This is an alias for parseOdds. payload : `byte[]` UTF-8 or Shift-JIS encoded JSON byte array. Returns: `Result<RaceOdds list, XanthosError>` A list of RaceOdds or a XanthosError.
`parseOdds payload` Full Usage: `parseOdds payload` Parameters: payload : `byte[]` - Raw bytes returned by JV-Link. Returns: `Result<RaceOdds list, XanthosError>` A list of RaceOdds or a XanthosError.	Decodes JV odds payloads (Shift-JIS or UTF-8) expressed as JSON into strongly typed snapshots. payload : `byte[]` Raw bytes returned by JV-Link. Returns: `Result<RaceOdds list, XanthosError>` A list of RaceOdds or a XanthosError.
`parseRaceCard payload` Full Usage: `parseRaceCard payload` Parameters: payload : `byte[]` - Raw bytes returned by JV-Link. Returns: `Result<RaceInfo list, XanthosError>` A list of RaceInfo or a XanthosError.	Decodes JV race card payloads (Shift-JIS or UTF-8) expressed as JSON into strongly typed records. payload : `byte[]` Raw bytes returned by JV-Link. Returns: `Result<RaceInfo list, XanthosError>` A list of RaceInfo or a XanthosError.
`parseWatchEvent rawKey` Full Usage: `parseWatchEvent rawKey` Parameters: rawKey : `string` - The raw key string from JVWatchEvent callback. Returns: `WatchEvent` A WatchEvent with parsed fields including event type, meeting date, course code, etc.	Parses a raw JV watch event key string into a typed WatchEvent. JVWatchEvent returns keys in formats like "0B12RA20240101010112..." where: 0B12/0B11/0B16 = dataspec prefix indicating event category RA/JC/WE/CC/AV/TC = record type (optional) yyyyMMdd = meeting date JJ = course/venue code RR = race number rawKey : `string` The raw key string from JVWatchEvent callback. Returns: `WatchEvent` A WatchEvent with parsed fields including event type, meeting date, course code, etc.
`serialiseOdds snapshots` Full Usage: `serialiseOdds snapshots` Parameters: snapshots : `RaceOdds list` - The odds snapshots to serialise. Returns: `Result<byte[], XanthosError>` UTF-8 encoded JSON byte array or a XanthosError.	Serialises odds snapshots to JSON for persistence or caching scenarios. The output format is compatible with parseOdds. snapshots : `RaceOdds list` The odds snapshots to serialise. Returns: `Result<byte[], XanthosError>` UTF-8 encoded JSON byte array or a XanthosError.
