Codecademy Screen Scrapper

This is a simple tool for determining a student's progress on a codecademy tutorial.

Usage

var codecademy = require('codecademy')
 
/**
 * This should be the user name from the user's profile.
 * It will resolve to http://www.codecademy.com/[user]
 */
var user = "UserName"
 
/**
 * This should be the unique course name.
 * If you hover a card on a user's profile, your browser will show the url.
 * It will resolve to http://www.codecademy.com/tracks/[course]
 */
var course = "CourseName"
 
codecademy.getProgress(user,course,function(e,progress) {
  if(e.message === "EEUSER") return console.log("User Does Not Exist!")
  if(e) return console.log(e)
  console.log(user+" has completed "+progress+"% of "+course)
})

Test Integrety

As a screen scraper, this tool is inherently fragile. If Codecademy changes up their website, this tool will stop working. As such, I have included a solid set of tests that cover the use cases for this app. Simply run npm test to make sure the tool still works. These tasks require network, and will fail if not present.
