Last Years README:
|
|
> This is the third year in a row I (plan to) use rust to solve Advent of Code. But I must warn you: I haven't programmed a lot over the past year, so I am likely not in the best shape (School has been rough - I need a break) - expect the worst.
|
|
> Just like last year, I am lazy and currently setting this project up in a hurry (In class, actually) just so I have the basic framework once the event starts. So this project is literally a cleaned-up copy of my [solutions for the previous year](https://github.com/LeMoonStar/AoC22), which in term are a cleaned up version of my [Advent of Code 2021 solutions](https://github.com/LeMoonStar/AoC21).
|
|
> **The Following therefore still contains screenshots of the 2021 binary. The usage is the same, but the name is `aoc24` instead of `aoc21`**
|
|
>
|
|
> Later on, maybe even before AoC starts, I'll clean this up more, maybe create a crate out of the framework so I don't have to copy each year over and over again.

Well, not much changed. This is now the fourth year I'll use Rust - after not using Rust in a while and likely with a lot less time at hand. We'll see how it goes. I am finally out of school tough - that's a relief!
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
There are multiple ways to run my solutions, the easiest and most comfortable one is the `auto` command:
|
|
It automatically downloads your input. For this it requires you to provide your Advent of Code session id, which you can find in the websites cookies after logging in.
|
|
Simply provide the session token by setting the `AOC_SESSION` environment variable or using the -s argument:
|
|
`AOC_SESSION=XXXMYSESSION ./aoc24 [DAY] auto` or `./aoc24 [DAY] auto -s XXXMYSESSION`.
|
|
In this example, the environment variable for the AoC session is set using `export AOC_SESSION=XXXMYSESSION`, so I can run the command without specifying the session token again:
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't want to automatically download the input, you can also use the `run` command, which uses a locally stored file or the stdin input:
|
|
`./aoc24 [DAY] run -f my_input.txt`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you just want to run the day's example, simply use the `test` command, as this project already includes the examples:
|
|
`./aoc24 [DAY] test`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Compiling
|
|
|
|
This project uses `Cargo`, so compiling is pretty easy:
|
|
`cargo build --release`
|
|
The resulting binary can be found at `./targets/release/aoc22`. You can also directly run the project using `cargo run --release [arguments for aoc24]`
|
|
the `--release` option is not required, but it results in better performance.
