Finds allocations that match queries from a JSON file. The JSON file must be named config.json as of now. No CLI/GUI exists yet.
An example config.json is shown below:
{
"parity": "even",
"headless": false,
"queries": [
{
"unit_code": "CMPN1611",
"day": 4,
"semester": 1,
"activity_type": "Seminar",
"activity": 2
},
{
"unit_code": "NEUR2001",
"day": "Tuesday",
"semester": 2,
"activity_type": "Tutorial",
"activity": 4,
"start_after": "11:00"
}
]
}run_chromedriver (default false): Specifies whether or not the program runs a chromedriver instance. You are expected to run an instance of chromedriver if this is set to false.
headless (default false): Run chromedriver in headless mode. Does not do anything if the chromedriver instance is run separately.
port (default 9515): The port the chromedriver instance is running on.
parity: Determines which of the two public timetables to use (even or odd). The default value depends on the current year—if the current year is an odd number, the parity is odd and if the current year is an even number, the parity is even.
query or queries: query expects a single query whereas queries expects an array of queries. If both are specified, the value of query takes precedence.
unit_code: The code of the unit to search for.
day: The day the allocation runs on. Can be an ISO week date (i.e. 1-7) or the weekday's (abbreviated) name.
semester (optional): The semester that the unit is offered in. Must be 0, 1 or 2. 0 works the same as not specifying the semester—the first matching offering is chosen.
activity_type: The type of activity to search for. Must be one of the activity types specified on the public timetable website.
activity: The number of the activity to search for.
start_after (optional): The time the activity starts after or starts at.
