Here's a quick guide on using this script.

1. Download submissions from Coursemology. This can be done by heading to the submissions page and clicking the three-dots menu icon on the right-hand side. There will be an option to download all submissions.

2. Unzip the submissions folder and copy the folders over to this directory, under data/. In other words, you should have something like:

     /update-students-from-coursemology/data
       /submissions
         /student1
           /Question 1...
           /Question 2...
           ...
         /student2
           ...
         ...
   

3. Install the dependencies by running npm install.

4. Run node createNewJson.js

5. Check through the new students.json file (which will be in this current directory):

   1. Update the faculties:
      • For SoC students, the faculty should be "Computing".
      • For students with multiple faculties, e.g. DDP students, their faculty should be comma-separated, e.g. "Computing, Science".
      • In general, you can follow NUS' faculty names: https://www.nus.edu.sg/education.
   2. Fix links:
      • Some students would submit only their GitHub ID instead of a full GitHub URL.
      • Some URLs will be missing https://. It is possible to naively fix this by adding a quick check and prepend in the script, but some students may try interesting things like mailto:, etc.

6. Copy the new year folder (which will be in this current directory) over to website/static/img/students, and replace website/students/students.json with the new students.json.

7. Create a new <year>.md file in website/students and update it with the new year values.
