drawpia

A simple command line tool for performing draws.

features

• Performing a draw between unlimited number of entries with different group sizes.
• Ability to set a restricted level for each entry to be able to distribute such entries on different groups without putting two entries with the same restricted level in the same group (if it's not possible, an error would be raised).
• Ability to set an optional level for each entry to be able to try to distribute such entries on different groups without putting two entries with the same optional level in the same group (if it's not possible, optional level would be ignored).

data

You should first fill this file with real data:

• files/entries.txt: Contains the name, restricted level and optional level of each entry. restricted level and optional level are not mandatory but each entry can have them if needed.

  These combinations are possible for each entry:

  • Name
  • Name + Restricted Level
  • Name + Restricted Level + Optional Level

  Note that if you only want to have optional level without restricted level, you can set a unique restricted level per each entry to make it non-effective.

  There are four sample files which can be used to get familiar with the data structure:

  • files/samples/entries.sample1.txt: Contains a sample data with only name.
  • files/samples/entries.sample2.txt: Contains a sample data with only name + restricted level.
  • files/samples/entries.sample3.txt: Contains a sample data with mixed entry structures.
  • files/samples/entries.sample4.txt: Contains a real sample data for drawing 16 football teams in groups of 2.
