PoliformaT

This is the code of a Chrome extension aimed at enhancing the use of UPV (Universitat Politécnica de València)'s virtual campus. It provides a (poorly designed) graphical interface for navigating the user's courses' folders and downloading files.

Usage

The following scripts are available:

    $ npm run build # Build the extension without source maps
    $ npm run watch # Build the extension and watch for changes (with source maps)
    $ npm run cover # Generate test coverage in coverage folder
    $ npm test      # Run test suite

In order for any of them to work, you must previously run:

    $ npm install   # Install project dependencies in node_modules folder

Having a recent version of NPM installed.

Keep in mind that the extension files are in the extension folder. Root folder is for project files (test, coverage, dependencies, etc.).

Login

There is the option to store login credentials in the extension. Be warned that none of this data is encrypted or hashed and will probably be stored as plain text by Chrome.

If you were to store your credentials using the aforementioned feature, the extension will attempt to log in periodically (unless it detects you are already logged in) to keep you identified in PoliformaT (and thus, the whole UPV network) all the time. I find this very useful, since I no longer have to log in everytime I have to look up something or download a file in PoliformaT.

Improvements

Feel free to open an issue or a pull request if you feel any of the features doesn't work as intended.

I am uploading the code to Github so anyone can improve upon it or use the code for their own purposes (mind the license). After June 2016 I won't be maintaining this code anymore.
