Monitors Texas A&M College Scheduler course availability, sends Discord notifications, and can attempt registration when a desired section opens.

1. Copy environment and config templates:

   cp .env.example .env
   cp config.example.py config.py

2. Edit .env — USERID, TERMCODE, DISCORD_WEBHOOK, and the four cookie values (from your browser session).

• USERID is the ID that collegescheduler uses to schedule classes, it is not the UIN.
• TERMCODE is the specific term you are registering for.
• DISCORD_WEBHOOK allows you to send registration notifications to a Discord server.
• When pasting your cookies, log in first, then use a cookie extension to copy the exact values. This will allow the script to authenticate.

3. Edit config.py — ROOT_URL, DESIRED, TRACKED, and optional SWAP_MATRIX.

• Do not edit ROOT_URL
• DESIRED holds the classes that you would like to register for.
• TRACKED can track specific sections or courses and send you a Discord message, but it won't register.
• SWAP_MATRIX is an advanced feature that will drop a current section before attempting to register for a desired section. This is best used for time conflicts.

5. Install and run:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   python course_checker.py

Ensure .env and config.py exist locally, then:

docker compose up --build

getcookie.py, test1.py, and discord_bot.py are local WIP scripts and are not tracked in git.

Refresh COOKIE_ASPNET and COOKIE_REQUEST_VERIFICATION when the script reports auth failures. These are the most important.
