UIUC Build Status

A JS wrapper for U of I's Course Schedule/Catalog API

Installation

Usage

This project uses some of the more popular ES6 features like Classes, Promises and arrow functions.

import or require it

import uiuc from 'uiuc' // ES6 Syntax

var uiuc = require('uiuc').default

API

Don't use the constructors of any Classes. This won't get real data. They are used internally by a classes own fetch function. Use the fetch function of any class to instantiate it.
