ib-clearance

ib-clearance is a program which helps schools manage the entrance and exiting of their IB students. Due to the unique nature of IB students' timetables, the program helps check individual timetables and give clearance to students who have finished for the day.

Building

The code is currently designed to run on Python 3.6.*.

I recommend building executables with pyinstaller with pyinstaller --onefile ib-clearance.py.

Database specification

The program requires SQLite databases for each IB class.

Each database must contain:

Table	Description
students	Contains students' names, ID numbers and class preferences
timetable	Timetable information for class

students

Column	Data type	Description
id	INTEGER	Student ID number used in program
g1	TEXT	Group 1 subject ID
g2	TEXT	Group 2 subject ID
g3	TEXT	Group 3 subject ID
g4	TEXT	Group 4 subject ID
g5	TEXT	Group 5 subject ID
g6	TEXT	Group 6 subject ID
name	TEXT	Full name of student

timetable

Column	Data type	Description
day	TEXT	Day of the week (e.g. monday)
end_time	TEXT	Ending time of lesson (e.g. 09:55, 13:05)
lesson_id	TEXT	Subject ID of the lesson (e.g. tok)

Subject IDs

Subject IDs may be anything, as long as consistency is maintained throughout the tables. There are two hard-coded IDs that are always taken by every student:

Subject	ID
Theory of Knowledge	tok
Guidance	gu
