This repo is a quick command-line wrapper around some hacky python code I wrote to parse scouts digital data into more human- (or computer-) friendly formats. I make no guarantees any of this works beyond my machine (classic).

I use uv for installation. You'll need to install that first. Life is too short to do anything otherwise:

uv tool install git+https://github.com/dlejeune/sd-utils

Otherwise you can download the repo and install all the dependencies but if you know how to do that then I guess you can figure out the rest.

The bane of everyone's existence. One of the tools (the todo-list generator) requires a functional version of XeLaTeX. This is not the simplest thing to get working but there exist a few tutorials out there. Check here: [https://www.tug.org/texlive/]

When you install with uv, you get the command line tool sd-utils. Running sd-utils --help should provide an overview of the tool.

In a nutshell, there are two main sub-commands: make-adv-chart and make-todo-list. These produce nicely-formatted advancement charts and todo lists respectively. They both consume the advancement chart export from scouts digital. In theory, you can provide it with the "minimal" export, but I sugest just doing a full export.

For the advancement charts, this tool converts the SD output into a printable chart broken down by patrol:

The todo utility produces a simple table for each scout containing their unfinished tasks for a level (or mutliple levels):
