# A+Attendance CLI

This is a CLI utility initially created for students at Florida Polytechnic University to submit their A+ attendance codes, but can be used for other
universities using Canvas and A+Attendance.

## Building/Installing

To compile this program, you need `go` installed as well as need to set two
environment variables in your shell's configuration file (like `~/.profile` or it's rc file) for your Canvas instance URL and your account's API key.

### Getting an API key

When logged into your university's Canvas site, go to Account -> Settings -> New Access Token -> (give any name or expiration date) -> store the Token somewhere.

### Setting the Environment Variables

In your shell's configuration file, add:
```sh
export CANVAS_INSTANCE="https://youruniversityhere.instructure.com"
export CANVAS_API_KEY="the_canvas_access_token_you_stored_somewhere"

# below not needed if go is already setup
export GOPATH=$HOME/.local/go
export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$GOBIN
```

Simply run `go install codeberg.org/flpolyaplus/aplus@latest`.
