krunk-copy

A simple python command line application that takes in a series of collection ids or module ids and checks the query_ptool for a PDF file.

If the PDF file has a timestamp it will download the file to the User's Downloads directory.

Basics

This tool has two main functions.

1. downloads pdfs using the query_ptool endpoint to poll and download a pdf when ready.
2. copies a module from one CNX Legacy to another.

Requirements

• Python 3.6+
• Chrome Browser

The Chrome Browser is required for copying modules between servers.

Using an env.local file

To avoid setting environmental variables via the command line you can use a .env.local file.

First, make a copy of the .env.example file:

cp env.local.example env.local

Fill out the file with the appropriate values.

Set the environmental variables:

source .env.local
