Slother Integration #140

Closed thebengeu closed 6 years ago

thebengeu commented 10 years ago

As discussed with @Sunxperous on Friday, we could try integrating Slother as well as introducing it to NUSMods users by having a button or dialog in the UI to send a timetable directly to Slother. This could be implemented by having something like a /add?url=http://nusmods.com/timetable/2014-2015/sem1?AR1327[LEC]=1&AR1327[TUT]=1 endpoint which might present a confirmation dialog. The dialog could be in an iframe instead of a redirect for better user experience.

This could be an alternative model for integration with some NUS-related projects where it makes more sense than consolidating codebases (See also #75).

Sorry, what do you mean by a confirmation dialog in an iframe?

Otherwise, I think this idea is great. Though, could there be another way so as to overcome changes in the timetable, especially during the first few weeks of the semesters due to lecture and tutorial bidding?
