AmiAhm / Room-Reserver-NTNU

Automatically reserves rooms at NTNU (Only using python requests)

Automatic Room Reserver

Reserves rooms at NTNU by user-selected criterias following a prioritized list.

(spaghetti level code)

Requirements

Runs python3 using the following libraries:

• requests

• lxml

• numpy

• pandas

Setup:

1. Make sure you have python setup with the correct libraries.
2. Create env variable "FUSER" with feide-username
3. Create env variable "FPASSWORD" with feide-password
4. Run python3 roomreserver.py init=True
5. In the newly created buildings.csv rank what buildings you want to choose from. HIGHER IS BETTER. 0 will be ignored.
6. In the newly created roomtypes.csv rank what buildings you want to choose from. HIGHER IS BETTER. 0 will be ignored.
7. In the newly created areas.csv rank what buildings you want to choose from. HIGHER IS BETTER. 0 will be ignored.
8. If you want to rank rooms before reserving run python3 roomreserver.py start="HH:MM" duration="HH:MM" min_size="XX" reserve=F and edit ranks in the newly created room_priority.csv.

How to run:

python3 roomreserver.py start="HH:MM" desc="Reservation description HERE" duration="HH:MM" min_size="XX" By default: duration="02:00" min_size="10"

Rooms with negative rank will be ignored. Rooms without rank will by default be set to rank 0

To run without reserving rooms and only search for new rooms at selected filters: reserve=False

store	Store new rooms found in .csv? (Will make script somewhat slower)	True	"T" or "F"
duration	Length of reservation	02:00	"HR:MM"
min_size	Minimum size of room (number of people)	10	Int
reserve_in	Days into the future for when to reserve	14	Int
