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

• 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

• 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

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-depths.txt:

• 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
