This is a script I wrote to download all of my Crowdmark assessments when I graduated.
I searched for similar tools but wasn't satisfied because other tools simply called Crowdmark's API. My downloader is unique because it downloads each assessment's page as an HTML file to preserve the TA's feedback on each image.
Install Selenium (the browser automation tool to click on links and download images robotically)
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Note: Selenium is a dependency and is kinda big. So you should probably make a python virtual env, source the virtual env, then install it (so you can easily delete all the dependencies when you're done)
1) python3 -m venv ./venv
2) source venv/bin/activate
3) pip3 install -r requirements.txt
1) Run the script using this command python3 download.py.
output/ directory (it will be created after
you run the script)This program assumes that you have a stable internet connection and that you are downloading all of the files in one sitting. If your computer goes to sleep, the script will be interrupted.
This script does NOT download archived courses. Since I don't have archived courses on my Crowdmark I couldn't test this functionality. It shouldn't be hard to update the script though.
I will not be maintaining this repo because I just wanted to write this simple script in an afternoon to help with a small task. Hopefully you will also find this code useful!
Oh, and also...........
