advent

A quick tool for caching Advent of Code problems offline.

Limitations

Currently, this tool only works unauthenticated. Because of the way Advent of Code is designed to work, this means that only Part 1 of each day's puzzles will be fetchable. I do plan to add authentication to this tool, however Part 2 of each day's puzzles will only be fetchable after Part 1 is submitted correctly (if I understand correctly).

Usage

• $ advent YEAR DAY Fetches the puzzle for YEAR and DAY and prints it
• $ advent fetchall Fetches all puzzles without printing them
• $ advent help Displays this help

The environment variable ADVENT_OF_CODE_CACHE can be set to indicate that an offline cache should be checked before fetching the puzzle from the Advent of Code website. Additionally, setting this variable will cause puzzles that are fetched from the website to be saved to the directory indicated in the variable.
