Custom tools

Competitive Companion can send the parsed data in JSON format to your own tools. To do this, start a HTTP server listening for POST requests to / on any of the ports listed in ./src/hosts/hosts.ts. An example on how to accomplish this can be found in jmerle/competitive-companion-example.

If you want your own tool added to the released version of Competitive Companion, create an issue in this repository specifying the name and a link to the tool.

The format

Here's an example of the data sent when parsing this problem:

{
    "name": "G. Castle Defense",
    "group": "Codeforces - Educational Codeforces Round 40 (Rated for Div. 2)",
    "url": "https://codeforces.com/problemset/problem/954/G",
    "interactive": false,
    "memoryLimit": 256,
    "timeLimit": 1500,
    "tests": [
        {
            "input": "5 0 6\n5 4 3 4 9\n",
            "output": "5\n"
        },
        {
            "input": "4 2 0\n1 2 3 4\n",
            "output": "6\n"
        },
        {
            "input": "5 1 1\n2 1 2 1 2\n",
            "output": "3\n"
        }
    ],
    "testType": "single",
    "input": {
        "type": "stdin"
    },
    "output": {
        "type": "stdout"
    },
    "languages": {
        "java": {
            "mainClass": "Main",
            "taskClass": "GCastleDefense"
        }
    },
    "batch": {
        "id": "123e67c8-03c6-44a4-a3f9-5918533f9fb2",
        "size": 1
    }
}

It's not required for a tool to parse all these options, since some of them are tool/language-specific. However, it is required for all extensions/tools that send data via this format to fill all required options.

Explanation

  • name: The full name of the problem. Can be used for display purposes.
  • group: Used to group problems together, which can be useful for archiving purposes. Follows the format <judge> - <category>, where the hyphen is discarded if the category is empty.
  • url: A link to the problem on the judge's website.
  • interactive (optional): Whether this is an interactive problem or not.
  • memoryLimit: The memory limit in MB.
  • timeLimit: The time limit in ms.
  • tests: An array of objects containing testcase data. The JSON objects in the array all have two keys: input and output. Both the input and the output need to end with a newline character.
  • testType: The type of the tests. Supports two options: "single" and "multiNumber". Explanation of these two can be found on the JHelper wiki.
  • input: An object which is used to configure how to receive input. Supported types:
    • stdin: Receive input via stdin. No additional options required.
    • file: Receive input via a file. The file name has to be given via the fileName option.
    • regex: Receive input via a file. The file to use is selected by taking the most recently modified that matches the given regex. The regex pattern to use has to be given via the pattern option.
  • output: An object which is used to configure how to send output. Supported types:
    • stdout: Send output to stdout. No additional options required.
    • file: Send output to a file. The file name has to be given via the fileName option.
  • languages: An object with language specific settings. At the moment this only contains Java settings, but since I don't think putting language specific settings as top-level options is a good idea, I decided to put them in an object. This also allows for other languages to have custom configuration added later on. Required keys:
    • java: An object with Java specific settings. Required options:
      • mainClass: The name of the outer class containing the solution.
      • taskClass: The classname-friendly version of the problem's full name. Cannot be the same as mainClass. Can also be useful for non-Java tools because a classname-friendly string is also a filename-friendly string.
  • batch: An object containing information about the batch of problems that this problem belongs to. Required options:
    • id: A UUIDv4 string which uniquely identifies a batch. All problems in a batch have the same batch id.
    • size: The size of the batch, which is 1 when using a problem parser and the amount of problems in the contest when using a contest parser.

Running locally

The following commands can be used to start working on Competitive Companion locally. Additionally, make sure you got Node.js and Yarn installed.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/jmerle/competitive-companion.git

# cd into the extension folder
cd competitive-companion

# Install the dependencies
yarn

# Decide what you want to do next

# Build the code to the build/ directory
yarn build

# Build the code automatically when the source changes
yarn watch

# Lint the extension for possible mistakes
yarn lint

# Package the extension to a zip file
yarn package

# Launch a Firefox instance with Competitive Companion loaded into a temporary profile
# Automatically re-compiles the code when the source changes
# Automatically reloads the extension in the Firefox instance when the code is re-compiled
yarn dev:firefox

# Does the same as dev:firefox but with Chrome, with the exception that the extension is not automatically reloaded
# You'll have to manually go to chrome://extensions and click on the reload button on the Competitive Companion entry
yarn dev:chrome

Testing

To run the tests, use yarn test, or yarn test:no-headless to run tests with the Chrome instance visible. All other arguments are automatically passed on to Jest.
