Compass Scraper 0.5.4

Timeline, performance graphs, task status and search everywhere.

Download

System File
Windows 10/11 Compass-Scraper-0.5.4-Windows.zip: unzip it, then run Compass Scraper.exe
macOS Compass-Scraper-0.5.4-macOS.zip: unzip it and open Compass Scraper.app. The app isn't notarized by Apple, so macOS blocks it the first time: open System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway
Linux Compass-Scraper-0.5.4-Linux.tar.gz: extract it and run Compass Scraper/Compass Scraper

New

  • Timeline: every due date in one list (Overdue, Today, This week, Next week, Later).
    • Add your own items, mark things done, and remove tasks you don't need to see.
    • Export to Google, Apple or Outlook Calendar as an .ics file.
  • Performance: graphs for each academic year. It only includes Assessments and Assignments.
    • Every marked task falls into exactly one category: VCE Number Scores (e.g. 9.5), SACs (percentages) or Exams (percentages on tasks with "exam" in the name).
    • Each category shows marks task by task (or by due date), your average per subject, and a results table coloured Towards, At, Above or Well above level.
    • A results breakdown counts every level result.
  • Task status: Graded, Submitted, Done, Overdue, Due soon or Pending.
    • Tasks with a mark or an uploaded file count as complete automatically.
    • You can mark any other task done yourself.
  • Search everything (Ctrl+K): search every task in every year.
    • Use filters like status:overdue, has:rubric or subject:english.
    • Browse also has Status and Score type filters.
  • HTML portfolio: shows the same status badges and has the same status and "has" filters.
  • Overview: now shows how many tasks are completed or overdue, and Coming up includes your own items.

Fixes

  • Sign in here: a new sign-in window inside the app. You sign in to Compass there, and it works on Windows, macOS and Linux without reading any other browser.
  • macOS sign-in: the app now finds Firefox, Zen, Chrome, Brave, Edge, Arc, Vivaldi and Opera profiles on a Mac, and adds Safari. Clear messages explain macOS's Full Disk Access and Keychain prompts.
  • Fixed the macOS app showing as damaged, and the in-app sign-in crashing in the packaged Linux app.
  • Zen browser: now supported on every system.
  • Bare numbers too big to be a level score (e.g. 100 or 82) now count as percentages, so they go to SACs or Exams, never VCE Number Scores.
  • Average by subject now scrolls when you have lots of subjects, and scroll bars match the theme.
  • Input boxes on the Sync page are now the same height.
  • Dropdowns are redesigned to match the light and dark themes, and their hover text is readable in light mode.

Known issues

  • Windows: recent Chrome and Edge lock their cookies, so the app can't read your session from them. Use Sign in here, Firefox or Zen.
  • Tasks without an online submission (for example, in-class tests) show as Overdue until a result comes out. Use Mark done for those.
