Get Your Freaking Electives :)

A simple script to find the depth and breadth electives available for you for subject registration


Setup

  • This script uses the iit-kgp-erp-login library created by proffapt, and as such, there is some pre-requisite setup to be done
    • Copy the template for erpcreds.py by running cp erpcreds.py.template erpcreds.py in the terminal
    • Fill erpcreds.py with the relevant credentials
    • If you want automatic OTP fetching: Generate token.json file following the instructions here
  • Install dependencies by running
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

  • Run the gyfe.py script following the format:
python3 gyfe.py <breadth/depth> --year <year-of-study> --session <session> --semester <semester>
  • The first argument is either breadth or depth, depending on which electives you want to find
  • --year is your year of study (single digit), eg: 3
  • --session is in the format YYYY-YYY, eg: 2023-2024
  • --semester is either AUTUMN or SPRING

Note

  • --session has a default value of 2023-2024, and --semester has a default value of SPRING
  • This must be changed every semester
  • Optional flag(s):
    • --notp: Don't use the token.json file to login, instead enter OTP manually (easier setup)

  • This will generate either available_breadths.txt or available_depths.txt depending on the first argument

Example(s)

python3 gyfe.py depth --year 3 --session 2023-2024 --semester AUTUMN
# find depth electives for 3rd year, Autumn 2023-2024, with automatic OTP fetching for login

python3 gyfe.py depth --notp --year 3 --session 2023-2024 --semester AUTUMN
# find depth electives for 3rd year, Autumn 2023-2024, with manual OTP input for login

python3 gyfe.py breadth --year 3 --session 2023-2024 --semester AUTUMN
# find breadth electives for 3rd year, Autumn 2023-2024, with automatic OTP fetching for login

python3 gyfe.py breadth --notp --year 3 --session 2023-2024 --semester AUTUMN
# find breadth electives for 3rd year, Autumn 2023-2024, with manual OTP input for login
  • Example available-breadths.txt:

  • Example available-depths.txt:


Future plans

  • See how your timetable will look like with the electives you choose (OR somehow merge this with what-slot)
  • Make it a web app for ease of use
