SPIRE Course Checker for UMass Amherst

Requirements:

• python3
• selenium >=3.5 (can be installed using pip)
• geckodriver
• Firefox <=53 (Note that Firefox 54 or above might not work due to compatibility issues).

Note: You may be able to make it work with other browsers, but I haven't tested it with anything else. Lookup selenium documentation to see how to switch browsers.

Usage:

To make this work, first go to SPIRE and add the courses you want to be able to track with this to your shopping cart.

$ python3 spire-checker.py <username> <courses list...>

Courses list is a comma seperated list of classes. It is matched against the Classes column in the classes table on the shopping cart page.

Example:

$ python3 spire-checker.py hpoddar 'COMPSCI 326' '233-01' '35492'

Note: Currently this will only print the class name in the console. This has a function called when_open that you can edit to make it do whatever you'd like.
