Note :

  1. Use pip (for python 3.x version).

  2. You need to run the above command everytime you want to use the app.

  3. The app will take sometime (usually 2-3 minutes) when using it for the first time. If it takes more time than expected, close the window and run the python command again.

  4. Please install Java as tabula requires it. (Confirmed working with Java 7 and 8)

    To verify if Java is installed , type

    $ java

    on your terminal/command prompt. You can install it from this link.

  5. If you face any difficulty related to tabula, please go through this page. If the problem persists, report it in the Issues Page.

  6. If you want to run this app with a new pdf, run these commands :

    $ rm -r Pages/
    $ rm packages/courses.db
    $ python3 main.py

Please make sure you make appropriate changes to the files packages/search.py and packages/page_01.py so that the pdf can be parsed correctly or else some unexpected error might occur.
