Wat Plan

Full stack project of my university's departament of cybernetics schedule, containing an android application and independent web api managing the used data.

You can download the android app's apk at https://watplan.eu.pythonanywhere.com/home

How does it work?

• The mobile app itself

  It is an Andoird application, written in Java, which obtains data from the web service, and saves it to local SQL storage using SQLite database, so that it is possible to acces previously visited schedules offline. Each time any schelude of a group is requested to open, app checks if its local version matches the one stored in the service's database.

• Obtaining data

  The data is scraped by a multithreaded Python program, which gets the contents of the departament's service and parses it using Beautiful Soup library, in order to post the data to the web service described below afterwards.

• Transfering data to the app

  To enable WAT Plan android app to get the desired data, I created a simple Django REST API.
  The service keeps track of any changes in the schedules posted to itself by scraping bots, so that WAT Plan is always up to date.
