req is a simple program that shows you trees of course prereqs and coreqs. Check it out live at https://eyqs.ca/tools/req/, or install it locally.
- Python 3.6 (does not work with Python 3.5 or lower)
- pip3 (included with Python 3)
- virtualenvwrapper (
pip install virtualenvwrapper) - Node.js
- npm (included with Node.js)
$ git clone https://github.com/eyqs/req.git/
$ cd req/
$ mkvirtualenv req
$ workon req
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
$ add2virtualenv .
$ npm install
Hover over a course to see its information. Click to dismiss the hoverbox.
Click again to toggle the course as already completed or not yet completed.
You can change the colours by editing the COLOURS dictionary in req.js.
Make sure you don't add a course which is a prerequisite of itself! That'll just get you an infinite loop. The same applies to, for example, a course which is a prereq of its own coreq, and all sorts of other nonsense.
$ # regenerates huge course req JavaScript object from the given folder
$ python3 req.py folder_name # default: data/ubc/2017
$
$ # regenerates course req lists from the current UBC Calendar
$ python3 ubcalend.py folder_name # default: 2017
$
$ # regenerates course code lists from the given folder of req lists
$ python3 codetabs.py folder_name # default: 2017
$
$ # regenerates excls.txt from the current UBC Credit Exclusion List
$ python3 excluded.py folder_name # default: 2017
$
$ # regenerates terms.txt from the current UBC Course Schedule, very slow
$ python3 ubcsched.py foo bar baz # default: 2017S 2017W
You can add separate courselists into the courses folder as plaintext files.
All lines without a colon : will be ignored, and all lines with a colon
will be split into the part before the colon and the part after the colon.
The part before the colon must be one of these allowed parameters:
- code: the course code, like
CPSC 121 - name: the course name, like
Models of Computation - desc: the course description, like
Functions, derivatives, optimization... - prer: the raw course prerequisites, like
Either (a) CPSC 221 or (b) ... - crer: the raw course corequisites, like
All of CPSC 213, CPSC 221. - preq: the parsed course prerequisites, like
CPSC 221 or (CPSC 260 and ... - creq: the parsed course corequisites, like `CPSC 213 and CPSC 221
- excl: the courses that cannot be taken for credit after the course is taken,
in a comma-separated list, like
STAT 200, STAT 203, BIOL 300, COMM 291, ... - term: the terms in which the course is offered, like
2017S, 2017W - cred: the number of credits granted by the course, like
3, or even a comma-separated list for courses with variable credits, like3, 6
The course code is required and everything else is optional.
In particular, only preq, creq, and excl are actually used in the logic,
while name, desc, prer, crer, term, and cred are just shown in the hoverbox.
Everything between two appearances of code: is a property of the first code.
For preq and creq, the structure of the part after the colon has to be an
unambiguous, properly parenthesized boolean expression made from the codes of
the reqs, such as preq: (CPSC 221 or (CPSC 260 and EECE 320)) and more...
Reading the example lists in this repo will probably make more sense than me.
