💡 Javascript to open all the dropdowns on the course website

[markusyeo]

I've often found opening every single link on the course website under the weekly topics to be very frustrating and annoying. Hence I wrote a simple script that clicks on all the > carets. This currently works on Chrome for me and opens only the > carets on the weekly topic page.

var inputs = document.getElementsByClassName("glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right")

inputsArray = Array.prototype.slice.call(inputs, 0)
                    // then we filter the Array:
                    .filter(function (el) {
return !(el.ariaHidden);
    });
inputsArray
  .forEach((element) => element.click());

Steps to use:

1. Open developer tools.
2. Open the console tab.
3. Paste the script into the console and wait.

Thanks! Works on Firefox as well, really useful for the Modelling page.

Here's the same code but using ES6 arrow-functions

const inputs = Array.from(document.getElementsByClassName("glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"))
    .filter(ele => !ele.ariaHidden);
console.log('Expanded:', inputs);  // to check what was expanded
inputs.forEach(ele => ele.click());

Updated the code to keep optionals/videos/table-of-content/recap sections collapsed.

You can change the isToBeCollapsed to vary what you want collapsed.

const not = predicate => ele => !predicate(ele);
const any = (...predicates) => ele => predicates.some(fn => fn(ele));
const clickElement = ele => ele.click();
const containsSelector = selector => ele => Boolean(ele.querySelector(selector));

const isOptional = ele =>
    Boolean(ele.querySelector('.badge.rounded-pill.bg-success')?.innerText.includes('OPTIONAL'));
const isVideo = containsSelector('.glyphicon-facetime-video');
const isTableOfContents = containsSelector('.fas.fa-list-ol');
const isRecap = containsSelector('.glyphicon.glyphicon-education');
const isToBeCollapsed = any(isOptional, isVideo, isTableOfContents, isRecap);

const isExpanded = containsSelector('.glyphicon.glyphicon-chevron-down');
const isCollapsed = containsSelector('.glyphicon.glyphicon-chevron-right');

const allHeaders = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.card-header'));

const allToBeExpanded = allHeaders.filter(isCollapsed)
    .filter(not(isToBeCollapsed));
allToBeExpanded.forEach(clickElement);

const allToBeCollapsed = allHeaders.filter(isExpanded)
    .filter(isToBeCollapsed);
allToBeCollapsed.forEach(clickElement);

console.log('Expanded: ', allToBeExpanded);
console.log('Collapsed: ', allToBeCollapsed);
