Collect the scores of your hackerrank contests and store them in a google sheets.

Special thanks to @mjjunemann, @fvr1, and @gnmonsalve for doing the previous versions of this script, previously known as score-collector .

Requirements: Python 3.6+, poetry.

git clone https://github.com/IIC1103/score-monster.git
cd score-monster

Install dependencies:

    pip install -U poetry
    poetry install

1. Obtain OAuth2 credentials from Google Developers Console. Follow instructions of the site until Step 5.

2. Rename the credentials to credentials.json

3. Create a spreadsheet in google sheets. Add a header to the spreadsheet.

4. Click the Share button and give edit access to the client_email located in your credentials.json

5. Optional: Add another tab named Stats

6. Create the collect.json file. This file contains all the information of contests and where to write them. More is explained below.

This file contains all the necessary information to collect the scores, and also where to write them. Here's an example

collect.json

{
    "sheets": [{
        "sheetUrl": "https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B9rofhwH6beR7ApC8aJbomaeJ0Dwkemm9bDrGfHGeg-gY/edit#gid=1835467540",
        "tabName": "Todos",
        "showStats": true,
        "contests": [{
                "link": "iic1103-2019-2-lab1"
            },
            {
                "link": "tarea-1-iic1103",
                "startLimit": [2018, 12, 30, 20, 0],
                "endLimit": [2019, 8, 26, 20, 0]
            }
        ]
    }],
    "filter": [
        "hacker_1",
        "hacker_5",
        "hacker_17"
    ]
}

The first key should always be sheets .

• sheets

  A list of "sheet objects" where scores should be written. Inside each one you should specifiy the following items:

  • sheetUrl : The url to the spreadsheet where the specified contest scores will be written.

  • tabName : The name of the tab were scores will be written. Case sensitive. Based on the example above, the following picture shows two tabs on the spreadsheet: Todos which is the tab where scores will be written, and Stats which will be covered on the next item.

  

  • showStats (Optional): Indicates where stats (such as last updated) are shown in the Stats tab. So far, the only stat written is last updated, and it is always written on cell A2 . An example of a Stats tab is shown below.

    

  • contests : An array of contests that will be written on this specific spreadsheet. Array contains "contest objects" as follows:

    • link : The part of the hackerrank link that takes you to the contest. For example, if the complete link is www.hackerrank.com/iic1103-2019-2-lab1, then the link would be iic1103-2019-2-lab1

    • startLimit (Optional): Sets a limit date from which scores will be considered. Any submission before that date is not considered. If this parameter is not given, any submission before endLimit is valid. The date should be passed as an array of 5 integers as follows: [year, month, day, hour, minute] .

    • endLimit (Optional): Sets a top limit date which scores will be considered. Any submission after that date is not considered. If this parameter is not given, any submission after startLimit is valid. The date should be passed as an array of 5 integers as follows: [year, month, day, hour, minute] .

• filter : An optional list of strings. Each string should represent a hacker's username. The script will collect only data from the specified hackers. Data from every hacker will be collected if this parameter is ommited or is left as an empty list.

1. Log in to Hackerrank in firefox. Really important! If you don't do this, the program will get stuck. You need to have firefox for this to work.
2. Simply run the two following lines:

poetry run python main.py

• Contests inside collect.json must contain either a startTime and an endTime, only a startTime or neither. The script won't work if only an endTime is given.
