This is a simple alternative for the iith attandance app. It uses the same api endpoint as the official app. *

Features

• You can mark attendance from anywhere.
• No facial recognition, location checking etc.
• Attendance can be marked before the class starts or after the class ends.
  • This feature is no longer available as time-of-request check is added on the server side.

Usage

• Make sure you have requests installed.
  • If not, install it using pip install requests.
• Download and place attendance.py in a folder of your choice.
• Run the script using python attendance.py.
  • The script creates a config.json file in the same folder as the script.
    • This file stores your credentials.
• Enter your username and password to login.
  • Enter S.No of the class you want to mark attendance for.

Advanced usage

usage: python attendance.py [filepath]

optional arguments:
    filepath                Path to the config file. If it doesn't exist, it will be created.

Examples:

python attendance.py 'C:\Users\<user>\Documents\config1.json'
python attendance.py '.\file3.json'

Notes

• The program was tested with python 3.10, requests==2.31.0 on windows 10.
  • It should work on other versions of python and requests but I can't guarantee it.
• Only one user can be logged in at a time (per config file).
  • To use multiple accounts, create multiple config files.
    • Refer to Advanced usage for details.

Troubleshooting

• If you encounter any issues, try deleting the config.json file and running the script again.
  • If the issue persists, open an issue on github with steps to reproduce the issue.
