IliasUploaderUtility

Because Ilias is a UX Nightmare

A tool to upload files to (KIT-)Ilias

Installation

Either

  • Download the binary from the releases page
  • Clone the repo and run cargo install (obviously requires cargo)
  • Use nix flakes: nix run github:Mr-Pine/IliasUploaderUtility

If you are on windows you can also add a context menu entry upload to ilias to the explorer by executing windows_contextmenu.reg

Usage

CLI

To upload a file to ilias run ilias_uploader_utility --ilias-id [The ref_id of the ilias Upload page (see config option below)] --username [your u-Name] --password [mySuperS3curePassw0rd1337]. If you don't provide a password it will prompt you and save it to your system's keyring.

Config files

You can also provide config files by putting a file named .ilias_upload (See example) in the same, or a parent-, directory as where you execute the command. The default search depth is 3, meaning it will search .. .., ../... You can change the depth by providing -d [your favorite depth]

Options

The following config options are available

  • username: Your shibboleth username (uxxxx)
  • ilias_id: The id of the Ilias object you want to upload to
    Finding the idilias_id example
  • preselect_delete - All|Smart|None: When overwriting files select what files should be preselected to be deleted, SMART selects files with the same name
  • transform_regex, transform_format: Regex transforms to run on each filename before uploading. Uses the syntax from Regex::replace_all from the regex crate
  • upload_type - Exercise|Folder: What kind of target you want to upload to. Chose EXERCISE for submitting solutions and FOLDER for uploading slides and other material to a course
