# TUM Mediasite Downloader

This program is only distributed in source form and you'll need a Rust compiler to run it. See [rustup.rs](http://rustup.rs) for installation instructions.

The tool accepts two arguments:
1. a catalog name (or an alias; see below)
2. a target directory

Most catalogs (→ lectures) require a TUMonline authentification. Those can either be supplied as environment variables or in a `.env` file (see `.example.env`; under Windows you have to rename the file to `.env.` and the last dot will be automatically removed by Windows Explorer).

## Example

```
TUM_USERNAME=ab34efg TUM_PASSWORD=hunter2 cargo run -- DS ds
```

(Note: `cargo` is the the standard build tool for Rust programs. `--` passes all the following arguments to the executed program instead of interpreting them as arguments to `cargo`.)

## Aliased catalog names

### WS16/17
- `DS`
- `EIDI` (the correct login is automatically choosen when using this alias)
- `ERA`

### SS17
- `GAD`
- `LA`

### SS18
- `DWT`

## How to determine a catalog name

Open the Mediasite listing page, right-click and "View page source" (or "View frame source" if the listing is embedded in moodle).
You should spot something like
```
<form name="MainForm" method="post" action="/Mediasite/Catalog/catalogs/17s-lineare-algebra-fuer-informatik" id="MainForm">
```
in the first couple of lines. Here the catalog name would be `17s-lineare-algebra-fuer-informatik`.
