A iOS app for the PASchedules API.

paschedules

PASchedules in your pocket! You must have first signed up for an account at http://paschedules.herokuapp.com.

• Search through every student, faculty member and course.
• Find out the students in all of your classes.
• See anyone's schedule in a calendar format (soon to come!).
• Compare courses, teachers, and commitments* between two students.

Want more? Email me your feature request and I'll see what I can do!

* Commitments qualify as any official PA commitment, such as a sports team or work duty. Extracurriculars/clubs that are not directly tied with the school will not be shown, as we don't have the data on them.

paschedules-ios's Issues

Version 0.2 To Do List

• Adding parenthetical syntax for students with preferred names.
• Replace supercourse with course. This would then cause "Courses" to become "Classes".
  • Fix confusing regarding login username. Accept either email (with @andover.edu) or username.

Change "Supercourse" to "Course"

Opened by @jbloxham.

Section pages list refer at the top to a "supercourse." It is unclear to the user what this means, so it should be changed to simply "course." If this is done, we should also make sure to title the class list on the students page as "Classes", not "Courses".

Add signup footer in login view.

Add reparse button

Sometimes schedules may be updated (as PASchedules is rescraped everyday), but the JSON will not be updated, as it is only scraped at the beginning of a term. As things become out of date, a student can report the outdated info and have it rescraped.

There is a reparse function built into the API, so it justs need to be added to PASchedulesAPI, and linked up to a few buttons.

When the API is released and polished, this will no longer be necessary, which is why I'm tagging it as a low priority. This may never be implemented, in fact.

Section not found bug fix

The following bug's stack trace can be found here (Crashlytics).

PABasicInfoTableViewCell.m line 36
-[PABasicInfoTableViewCell initWithStyle:reuseIdentifier:andText:andInfo:]

The crash is most likely because I am trying to initialize a cell will a null value.

Add Schedule Tab

The schedule tab should present the student's schedule.

Maybe a table view? The day displayed at the top should probably be the current day. Just a thought.

Also possibly a list view, like the following:

• Monday
• Tuesday
• Wednesday
• Thursday
• Friday

"(null)" for app name in feedback

Also the styling for the navigation bar needs to be changed.

I suspect this is a problem because I fiddled with the macros.

Add settings tab

The tab should contain the following:

• Logout
• Feedback
• Acknowledgments

PASchedulesAPI.m line 207

in __49-[PASchedulesAPI sections:track:success:failure:]_block_invoke

• Number of crashes: 1
• Impacted devices: 1

There's a lot more information about this crash on crashlytics.com:

Teacher cell in course without teacher

Remove the PATeacherBasicInfoCell from the table view if the course is lunch, or if there is no teacher listed.

Login page username vs. email

Opened by @jbloxham.

On the login page, I found it slightly disorienting at first that the input field prevents inclusion of characters such as '@' and '.'. I assume that this is to prevent the user from entering the full email as opposed to just the bit before the '@' but could we not just let the user do either? A problem arose for me when I typed my full email only to look up from my keyboard to notice that two characters had been omitted, thereby wasting me a fair bit of typing.

Change "Goes by" to (nickname)

Opened by @jbloxham.

"Goes by" for indicating pref. names is too wordy. Parenthetical syntax is one alternative.
