🎯 Competitive Programming should be productive.

Hi 👋, I'm Kaushik Rishi

    About Me

Hello, I’m Kaushik Rishi, A budding developer and Algorithms enthusiast. I am working on Node JS and C++ and planning to Dive deep into languages like C and Java. I use linux with xfce4. I am looking forward to learn things at the level of a system trace call 😁. I am waiting for a position in my life when i have Ample free time to learn C language. I donot have an eye for design [I've aldredy said that 😄 - I use xfce4].

Add Language support for Java

Static Root Directory

New Feature :

Presently the root directory is static and fixed as the home directory of the user.
But generally we don't do competitive programming in our home directory.
Thus the user should be provided with a option to change the root.

We can achieve this using any option below :

.env files
user input on server start.

Add Prettier as pre-commit hook

Use Husky for the same.

Convert the bash script into a Makefile

[Issue#34] [Feature Update : Backend] Handle the route creating the configuration file

Because:

• We hard coded the values of programming language and template path till commit #57
• Develop a backend and a single frontend ejs file / handlebars anything of that case to handle the user configuration
• This should launch a server and create a configuration file based on it
• The frontend is just a minimal HTML Form with a bunch of attributes that will be added incrementally

This issue is for the developing the backend of the application
Issue #33 has close connection with it.

Anyone having doubts can hop into the discord server and discuss with the mentors and fellow contributors

Enhancement of the previous Issue Mentioned

@kaushik-rishi as in Issue #1 you have mentioned to make a bash script which when run from the problem(s) folder and will validates the Input and Output. As for an Idea It would be simple to follow the above but it wouldn't be better.

My Idea is - If we make our own command and it automatically compiles and check for the Input and Output, through this the bash script will not be there in each and every folder and It would be easier for the person to just type a command and check his code.
A Sample Command as : cp check

What do you say about this? If you like I would love to work on this Issue.

Adding Contributor section in readme ( Automatically )

I will like to add a feature this will update contributor list in read me automatically !! Will start to work on this issue as soon as i get assigend !!

Have a global configuration file called .rocketcp.conf which has the data:

• The path where the competitivecoding folder is to be mounted
• The path of the template file that they have
• The preferred language

Working on the branch : configfile

Completition of rcp command functionality

As the rcp command is made using Node CLI I would like to add more features to it as

• rcp check
• rcp parse
• rcp config

So that the user may have better experience of using our parser through command line.
@kaushik-rishi can u Assign this Issue to me ?

Done a TODO for creating Folder for different Platforms while Parsing

@kaushik-rishi The motive of this PR is to light up on the format how you want to Parse a problem and make Folder(s).

What I have done is, if the Problem is from HackerRank, It will make a Directory name HackerRank and then make a Directory with the given Problem Name and then Parse the Input, Output and the Solution.cpp file in it.
But while working on it I encountered this piece of code and I am not getting what do u want in problemCode of the Problem.

function getProblemCode(problemName) {
    // TODO : return the problem code based on different cp platforms
    return problemName.split(' ')[0][0].trim();
}

As of now I am making a PR with the name of Solution.cpp, and Implementation of the Folder Creation, Once you clarify my doubt I will update the PR.

Embed a Makefile into each problem folder

• While creating the problem folder and the problem files
  - Create a Makefile in the directory
  - Which generates the executable
  - Which tests the input and output of code
