Lab file distribution

A script to distribute lab files to SVN. Developed for CS 233, though it could be used elsewhere.

Installation

The script requires Python 2.7+. On EWS, you can get Python 2.7 using

module load python

or preferably, get Python 3 by using

module load python3

No libraries are required.

Usage

Run

./distribute_lab.py -h

to get all the juicy details, including the format of the __init__.py files (ab)used by the script to hold distribution information.

One thing to note is that the script requires the repository to be checked out. If you're concerned about disk usage and/or checkout time, a sparse checkout will work just fine (GIYF), as long as the _rosters directory is fully checked out, unless you want to use the --missing distribution mode. It's probably easiest to just check out the entire repository; it shouldn't exceed a couple of gigabytes if you're doing things right, and it doesn't take too long to update as long as you keep doing so incrementally.
