Usage
To use this program, you need to modify the configuration options in metadata_generator.py, and also provide artifacts.csv and acmcms-toc.xml. This repository includes two sample files for your reference.
Then, run python metadata_generator.py to generate the metadata.
The output files will be located in artifacts-metadata folder. Each submission will generate a ZIP file, each containing two XML files.
Compatibility
This program is written in Python 3.11. It may or may not work with earlier versions of Python 3, but I have not tested it.
Compatibility patches are welcome.
