Check Projects

Make sure each of your projects has a project file and a unique name.

To help out, I hastily created a Python script called CheckProjects. This script can, at least in theory, iterate over the .project files in your repository and confirm that each one has a unique name.

The script is in Elvenware in the Python/RegEx directory. You can see the CheckProjects in GitHub. The simplest way to get a copy is to go to your Git/JsObjects folder and run git pull. The file should be downloaded automatically.

To run the script, copy it to the root of your repository and run it like this:

python3 CheckProjects.py

If all goes well, it should return something like this:

['CopyParticles']
['GameDataProject']
['PointLocker']
['SocketsCore']
['ThreeFloor']
['Week03MazeBuilder']
['Week04_Particles']
['Week04_WebSocket']
['Week05_CanvasTest']
['Week05_SimpleParticle']

The output shown above shows the name for each project in the repository that has a .project file. If something has gone wrong, you might see output like this:

['TEST05']
['TEST05']
['TEST05']
['CanvasTest']
['Week05_Particles']
['TEST05']
Error:  ['TEST05']
Error:  ['TEST05']
Error:  ['TEST05']
Error:  ['TEST05']

The output shown here first shows the names of all the projects in the repository, and then prints out as an error each instance of a name that is repeated. Here is another example:

['SocketBasic']
['Test05']
['Week03_MazeBuilder']
['PointerLock']
['CanvasTest']
['Week03_MazeBuilder']
['Week05_SimpleParticle']
['Week03_MazeBuilder']
['Week06_GameListener']
['Week03_MazeBuilder']
['Test10']
['Test11']
['Test10']
Error:  ['Week03_MazeBuilder']
Error:  ['Week03_MazeBuilder']
Error:  ['Week03_MazeBuilder']
Error:  ['Week03_MazeBuilder']
Error:  ['Test10']
Error:  ['Test10']

Just now the program does not detect folders that are missing project files.

##Turn it In

Confirm that each of your projects has a unique name and a project file. Please report errors using my script, but the failure of the script is not a reason not to complete the assignment.

When you are done, update your repository and submit the assignment, passing in the URL for your repository.
