Split/Merge Courses by ref_id

[amikabo]

Some of the courses from different semesters (different ref_id) have same course name and mostly same structure. After downloading they all merge in one folder and if files in courses have different names, the they can be split manually, but if names of the files are the same, every time it download from one courses and then replace from the last.

SS2021 > Algorithms 1 / Lectures / Lecture 1.pdf SS2022 > Algorithms 1 / Lectures / Lecture 1.pdf

1. Is it possible to download course by it ref_id manually?
2. By creating a folder add in the beginning of course name add year from the date of creation?

You have three options:

• rename the old 'Algorithms 1' folder to 'SS 2021 - Algorithms' (or any other name), this way the new course does not interfere with the old one
• rename the course using the course_names.toml file (see readme)
• download the course separately: KIT-ILIAS-downloader --output "./Algorithms 1 SS 2022" --sync-url 'https://ilias.studium.kit.edu/ilias.php?ref_id=XXXXXXX&...

The first two solutions require that you remove the old course from your favorites / dashboard.

I could also create a config option to rename courses based on their ref_id. That way we could also (finally) get a consistent naming scheme..
