Usability Issues

[dufferzafar]

Hey, I just tried out this tool. It seems to get the job done, but I feel the UX could be a bit better.

• Improved installation process

  • Preferably via pip

• Currently username / password has to be specified inside utils/conig.py

  • Instead we could create a config file $HOME/codeforces

• Bundled under one main script

  • We could have a main script idne that has two arguments
    • parse
    • submit

• Improvements to the parse script

  • Add support for Python language

  • Take optional argument for problem name: A, B etc.

    • So that only a single problem can be fetched

  • In general, the test.sh can be refactored

    • Maybe we could even create a Python file out of it. and add it as a separate command idne run

  • We could even fetch the problem statement (the entire text) and add it to the problem code file itself (.cpp, .py)

    • So one can look at the problem statement in the editor itself

    • Similarly, the test cases could be written inside the code file too

    • Then, the idne run command could just extract the test cases from the code file itself, and run them!

      • This means, separate input1 / output1 files won't be needed!

What are your thoughts?
