I am graduating at the end of this semester (December 2020 == AY2020/2021 Semester 1 == Fall 2020), and so I will most likely not have time to maintain nor the necessary access to test and dogfood the features. If you are interested in maintaining the project, do contact me at the email address I use to author the commits on this repository.

If I can't find a new maintainer by the end of 2020, I will archive the project. Feel free to fork this project, as it was released under the MIT license.

^{_{F LumiNUS! IVLE ftw! Why fix what ain't broken?!}}

Since IVLE was deprecated on AY2019/2020, and LumiNUS had consistently pushed back its schedule to release an API, I have decided to reverse-engineer the API used by the Angular front-end of LumiNUS.

I try to keep to best coding practices and use as little dependencies as possible. Do let me know if you have any suggestions!

PR's are welcome.

Code coverage is most likely to stay at 0% in the spirit of LumiNUS

FluminusCLI is currently not compatible with Windows. I suggest using Fluminurs instead if all you need is file downloading: https://github.com/indocomsoft/fluminurs

Mostly this is because fluminus is designed with Unix in mind (use of /tmp, file name sanitisation that only looks for null and slash characters, etc.)

If you really need this badly, you can use docker: https://hub.docker.com/r/qjqqyy/fluminus (courtesy @qjqqyy)

The most important one, to download your files:

mkdir /tmp/fluminus
mix fluminus --download-to=/tmp/fluminus

This will download files of all your modules locally to the directory you speficied. To download all files again next time, simply do:

mix fluminus --download-to=/tmp/fluminus

More information can be found in the help page:

$ mix fluminus --help
mix fluminus [OPTIONS]

--verbose             Enable verbose mode
--show-errors         Show all errors instead of just swallowing them

--announcements       Show announcements
--files               Show files
--download-to=PATH    Download files to PATH

Only with --download-to
--external-multimedia  Download external multimedia files too
--lessons              Download files in the weekly lesson plans too
--multimedia           Download unanchored multimedia files too
--webcasts             Download files in the weekly lesson plans too

• Storing credentials (in plain text though)
• Listing of mods being taken and taught
• Syncing of workbin files
• Syncing of webcasts
• Syncing of files in weekly lesson plans
  • This includes downloading of multimedia files using ffmpeg
• Syncing of unanchored multimedia files (under the multimedia tab)
• Syncing of external multimedia files (stored on panopto)

• Elixir (tested with 1.10)
• Erlang/OTP (tested with 23.0)
• ffmpeg (optional, only to download multimedia files)

1. Install elixir+erlang for your platform
2. Clone this repo
3. Get the dependencies:

mix deps.get

4. Fluminus CLI is available as a mix task:

mix fluminus

5. If you want to download multimedia files in the weekly lesson plans as well, you will need to download ffmpeg

Note that the first time running the mix task might be a bit slow because the code has to be compiled first.

To add a new feature for --download-to, simply implement your feature as a new module in lib/fluminus_cli/work/, implementing @behaviour FluminusCLI.Work. It will be automatically picked up by FluminusCLI, both in argument parsing, processing and help page.
