README

fbnd

A command line tool to quickly display the timetables for degree programs of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, abbreviated FB03, at the Hochschule Niederrhein.

How it works

The program uses the fbnd library to fetch and parse the available timetables, followed by prettifying and displaying the data.

To list all available degree programs, two POST requests are made; one for the winter and one for the summer semester. To list the timetable for a given degree program, one POST request is made. In both cases less than when manually going to the page and choosing the correct timetable; and faster as well.

Features

• List all available degree courses for which timetables are available.
• List timetables for specific degree courses.
• Colored output that highlights important parts.
• Flag to disable colored output to use it in scripts.
• Flag to print all data as JSON.

Build from source

With Go 1.18 or above, run the following command:

go install github.com/n9v9/fbnd/cmd/fbnd

Note

This is not an official tool of the Hochschule Niederrhein.

This is only a personal project of mine that I did, because I wanted to view the timetable in my terminal.
