What's Course Planner?

Course Planner was the initial project name before we chose a better name.

Purpose

In summary, we wanted to create an application that helps University of Waterloo students to plan future courses with ease. Some of the features include:

• Checking plan requirements for degrees, minors, options, etc.
• Checking course pre-requisites using previous courses
• The flexibility to create different Timelines i.e. different academic plans

Running the application

• make sure you have golang 1.11 or above installed.
• make sure you have a local mongo instance running, we use the docker image mongo:4.0.10-xenial.
• pull from master and run dep ensure to install any dependencies.

Running the API server

• make sure you're in the project root directory
• run go run ./cmd/course-planner

Running tests

• make sure you're in the project root directory
• run go test -v -tags=unit ./... for unit tests
• run go test -v -p 1 -tags=integration ./... for integration tests
