testudo
testudo.py collects class information from the publicly available University of Maryland Schedule of Classes. It includes information such as the title of the class, the size of the class, enrollment, the time and location of the class, and the name of the instructor. This repository only makes the code for assembling the data available. Please email edsu@umd.edu with any questions.
git clone https://github.com/edsu/testudo.git
cd testudo
pipenv install
./testudo.py
After it finishes you should find a populated directory structure like this:
data/{term}/{dept}/{class}.json
For convenience the included json2csv.py program will read in all the JSON
files and write out one long CSV file, which is saved in data/courses.csv.
Each course JSON file will look something like this:
{
"id": "ANTH222",
"title": "Introduction to Ecological and Evolutionary Anthropology",
"credits": "4",
"description": "Credit only granted for: ANTH220 or ANTH222.",
"grading-method": [
"Reg",
"P-F",
"Aud"
],
"sections": [
{

"seats": "20,",
"open-seats": "0,",
"waitlist": "0",
"days": "TuTh",

There are a few tests, but there should be more.
