Export your UVIC detailed timetable as an iCalendar file for use with google calendar, iCal, or other calendar program.
To get started with uvicalendar, Ensure you have nodejs and npm installed and available in your shell. Then follow these steps:
git clone https://github.com/Tacklebox/uvicalendar.git && cd uvicalendar
npm install --dev
npm run build
If you use firefox and have web-ext installed globally, you can run npm run dev after running npm run build at least once, or alternatively,
check out the instructions to load a local extension for Chrome or Firefox
Note that the directory of the unpacked extension is 'dist', not the root directory of the repository.
Navigate to Student Services >> Registration >> Detailed timetable in the mypage area of the main UVIC website. There should be an additional button called 'export' at the top right of the timetable area beside the two existing buttons 'print' and 'help'. Clicking this button should prompt you to download a .calendar file representing your timetable.
Refer to your calendar application's documentation for how to import a calendar. I strongly recommend adding it to a new blank calendar rather than your existing calendar to ensure that the classes were created correctly. If not, delete that calendar and file an issue =D.
Feel free to open an issue if you have any trouble getting things working or if you encounter any errors in calendar generation. Due to the nature of the use case, the only test page I have is my own timetable so there are probably many edge cases that I am simply unable to encounter. Also feel free to open a pull request if you have a bug fix or new feature.
