🔧 Setup: Auto Submit and Move

To automate Kattis submissions and organize accepted files:

🛠️ Steps

1. Install Prerequisites:

   • Python: Download Python
   • Kattis CLI: Kattis CLI
   • Python Packages: pip install requests beautifulsoup4
   • Ensure you have a valid .kattisrc file in your home directory with your credentials. You can get it from here.

2. Add submit_and_move.py:

   • The script is in scripts/submit_and_move.py.

3. Configure VSCode Task: Add this to .vscode/tasks.json:

   {
     "version": "2.0.0",
     "tasks": [
       {
         "label": "Submit to Kattis",
         "type": "shell",
         "command": "python",
         "args": ["${workspaceFolder}/scripts/submit_and_move.py", "${file}"],
         "presentation": {
           "echo": true,
           "reveal": "always",
           "focus": true,
           "panel": "shared",
           "showReuseMessage": false,
           "clear": false,
           "close": true
         },
         "problemMatcher": []
       }
     ]
   }

4. Setup Keybinding: Add to keybindings.json:

   [
     {
       "key": "f12",
       "command": "workbench.action.tasks.runTask",
       "args": "Submit to Kattis",
       "when": "editorTextFocus"
     }
   ]

5. Create solutions Folder: Manually create the folder or the script will create it automatically.

6. Submit Solution:

   • Keep unfinished solutions in the root directory. Open the solution file (e.g., kattisexercise.cpp), press F7, and it will automatically upload the solution to Kattis. If accepted, the script moves the file to the solutions folder.

🔧 Setup: Auto Create Problem Set

Automate the creation of problem sets with specified language templates:

🛠️ Steps

1. Add create_problem_set.py:

   • Ensure your script is in the scripts folder and can handle language options.

Remember to change the VSCODE_PATH variable in the script to your own path:

VSCODE_PATH = r"C:\Users\simon\AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe" #Remember to change this to your own path

2. Configure VSCode Tasks: Add the following to your .vscode/tasks.json:

   {
     "version": "2.0.0",
     "tasks": [
       {
         "label": "Create New Problem Set (py)",
         "type": "shell",
         "command": "python",
         "presentation": {
           "echo": true,
           "reveal": "always",
           "focus": true,
           "panel": "shared",
           "showReuseMessage": false,
           "clear": false,
           "close": true
         },
         "args": [
           "${workspaceFolder}/scripts/create_problem_set.py",
           "-l",
           "py"
         ]
       },
       {
         "label": "Create New Problem Set (cpp)",
         "type": "shell",
         "command": "python",
         "presentation": {
           "echo": true,
           "reveal": "always",
           "focus": true,
           "panel": "shared",
           "showReuseMessage": false,
           "clear": false,
           "close": true
         },
         "args": [
           "${workspaceFolder}/scripts/create_problem_set.py",
           "-l",
           "cpp"
         ]
       }
     ]
   }

3. Setup Keybindings: Add to keybindings.json:

[
  {
    "key": "f9", // For C++
    "command": "workbench.action.tasks.runTask",
    "args": "Create New Problem Set (cpp)",
    "when": "true"
  },
  {
    "key": "f10", // For Python
    "command": "workbench.action.tasks.runTask",
    "args": "Create New Problem Set (py)",
    "when": "true"
  }
]

4. Use the Tasks:

• Press F9 to create a new Python problem set.
• Press F10 to create a new C++ problem set.

📂 Template Files

Ensure you have template.py and template.cpp in your root directory to serve as templates for new problem sets.
