Scripts

Start a new day

Prerequisites:

• Get your AoC Session Cookie

This can be done by copying the value by going to https://adventofcode.com/ and opening Dev Tools. Chrome: Application => Cookies => https://adventofcode.com/ => session: <value> Copy the value and paste it into a newly created .env, based on .env.local

brew install pup
./scripts/new-day.sh

• This will generate a new folder with a template ready to be worked on, including test setup and a blank a test.txt.

test.txt requires manual copying and pasting from the puzzle html at present

Get input

./scripts/puzzle-input.sh

This command auto generates your input.txt file and places it in the latest day folder.

For example, if you are working on a solution for Day 4, it will place it in /day-04/input.txt, ready to be used in your solution.

It is to be run when you have understood the puzzle and your tests locally for test.txt are passing.
