|
||
|
||
* files
|
||
* exercise sheets and solutions
|
||
* Opencast lectures
|
||
* forum posts
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
**Windows/Linux users**: go to the [releases](../../releases) and download the executable for your operating system.
|
||
|
||
**macOS users**:
|
||
[Install Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install):
|
||
```
|
||
$ curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
|
||
```
|
||
and compile from source:
|
||
```
|
||
$ cargo install --all-features --git 'https://github.com/FliegendeWurst/KIT-ILIAS-downloader'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Usage
|
||
|
||
First, open a terminal. Navigate to the directory that contains the downloaded binary.
|
||
|
||
Then execute the program (use `-o <directory>` to specify the download directory):
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ KIT-ILIAS-downloader -o ./ILIAS
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
By default, only content on your [personal desktop](https://ilias.studium.kit.edu/ilias.php?baseClass=ilPersonalDesktopGUI&cmd=jumpToSelectedItems) will be downloaded.
|
||
Use the `--sync-url` option to download a specific page and its sub-pages: (the URL should be copied from an ILIAS link, not the browser URL bar)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ KIT-ILIAS-downloader -o ./ILIAS/WS2021-HM1 --sync-url 'https://ilias.studium.kit.edu/ilias.php?ref_id=1276968&cmdClass=ilrepositorygui&cmdNode=uk&baseClass=ilRepositoryGUI'
|
||
```

### .iliasignore
|
||
|
||
.gitignore syntax can be used in a `.iliasignore` file: (located in the output directory)
|
||
```ignore
|
||
# example 1: only download a single course
|
||
/*/
|
||
!/InsertCourseHere/
|
||
# example 2: only download files related to one tutorial
|
||
/Course/Tutorien/*/
|
||
!/Course/Tutorien/Tut* 3/
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Credentials
|
||
|
||
You can use the `--user` and `--keyring` options to get/store the password using the system password store:
|
||
```
|
||
$ KIT-ILIAS-downloader -U uabcd --keyring [...]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you use [pass](https://www.passwordstore.org/), you can use the `--pass-path` option to specify which password store entry to use:
|
||
```
|
||
$ KIT-ILIAS-downloader -U uabcd --pass-path edu/kit/uskyk [...]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can also save your username and password in a `.iliaslogin` file: (located in the output folder)
|
||
```
|
||
username
|
||
password
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
When running the downloader multiple times in a short period of time, you may want to use the `--keep-session` flag.
|
||
If specified, the downloader will save and restore session cookies (`.iliassession` file in the output directory).
|
||
|
||
### Renaming course names (0.2.24+)
|
||
If you'd like to avoid unwieldy course names (e.g. "24030 – Programmierparadigmen"), you can create a `course_names.toml` file in the output directory. It should contain the desired mapping of course names to folder names, e.g.:
|
||
```
|
||
"24030 – Programmierparadigmen" = "ProPa"
|
||
"Numerische Mathematik für die Fachrichtungen Informatik und Ingenieurwesen" = "Numerik"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
### Error when using `--keyring` option
|
||
```
|
||
PlatformFailure(Zbus(MethodError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown", Some("The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files"), Msg { type: Error, sender: "org.freedesktop.DBus", reply-serial: 2, body: Signature: [
|
||
s (115),
|
||
] })))
|
||
```
|
||
If you get the above error when activating the `--keyring` option, you need to make sure that your system keyring service (KeePassXC, GNOME Keyring, ...) is running.
