UniWorX Monitor

A better LMU UniWorX System with new courses notifications.

IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM AND IMPROVEMENT IDEA, PLEASE OPEN AN ISSUE OR START A PULL REQUEST THAT HELPS ME IMPROVE THIS PROJECT.

CMD Version

Install dependencies:

To run UniWorX Monitor CMD version, please cd into cmd folder. And you also need install requirements:

sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Configure your account:

Fill your UniWorX account information inside infos.json

Run:

Then you are free to go:

python3 main.py

Note:

1. Your first execution will create a json file to store all courses status if you removed the courses.json inside the repo folder;
2. Afterwards every time you execute this script can monitor the UniWorX for any course status change;
3. Terminal output gives you the up-to-date changes informations for you, you can also check the log.txt for change history.

uniworxmonitor's Issues

courses.json will be delete when uniworx account or passcode error

This issue is for the strange behavior of courses.json. the entire file will be deleted if the uniworx account or passcode has any error.

Special thanks for the investigate from @lizhedm .

GUI Version Proposal

This project currently requires command line to use and it displays changes in the command line and txt file.

I open this issue to investigate a GUI version for this program, which probably gives more user friendly program to users.

Upgrade to Python3 Only

Support Python 2 and 3 has too much drawbacks for development and maintains.

Considering Python 2 will be dead in 2020, I propose to migrate this project to Python3

Wrong detection for registed course

This is a bug that happens on the following scenario:

Step 1. Applied a Praktikum or Seminar;
Step 2. This course become "Not Possible" to apply;
Step 3. Successfully applied for the course.

Single Page Application of UniWorX

With the improvements of this project, I think here is a chance to build a better UniWorX system.

Thus I open this issue to discover the possibility of SPA of UniWorX.

To archive this, I wish to practice the following skills:

1. Front End: VueJS or Polymer stuff;
2. Back End: Express, RESTful, etc.

Notice that once we archive this, the GUI version (#1) are possible encapsulated by Electron.

Feature request: courses scheduling

This issue is for

1. 给一个时刻表，排列每天的课程，并可视化显示，了解课程冲突情况。
2. 按天显示[窄屏幕], 按周显示[宽屏幕]
3. 时间在前显示[列表显示]

Subscribe Service

I open this issue to investigate the web services of UniWorXMonitor.

This will give us a website that enables user can provide their email to subscribe notification for new courses.

Some courses informations are missing

https://changkun.de/data/log

There is a seminar "Deep Learning" doesn't appear in the monitor log.

Warning when Computer Offline

I open this issue because this program will not present to users a warning when the computer is offline.

This causes the notification gives No Further Changes information to users, but actually need to run this program again until the network works fine.

Introducing MongoDB

This project currently uses local files to store data. It isn't that much persistent for our data.

To introducing MongoDB into this project, we only need modify the loader.py by using pymongo.

Linux/Window Automated Task Support

I open this issue for the automated task on Linux and Windows.

This program needs to find a solution on Linux and Windows since I am currently not familiar with the automated task on these OS.
