Process Assignments Package for the DCF ThankViewInitial Author:Mubbie IdokoCurrent Maintainer:Mubbie IdokoContributorsDescriptionTo manage ThankView for the DCF, it is necessary to take a large spreadsheet that contains details about alumni i.e. "Thank You" video recipients, and divide them into smaller units that can be sent out as assignments.These smaller units needs to be in two forms, the one used to create the campaigns on ThankView, and the ones sent out to those making the videos.This package is intended to do all of this so that the ThankView Manager does not need to spend time making the divisions manually.GuideThe scripts reads a *.csv file containing DCF Assignment Data, a *.csv file containing the student making videos for that assignment, and the date for the assignment.For the date of the assignment, make sure that it is in the form mmm-dd-yy e.g:"mar-1-22" for March 1st, 2022"jun-30-20" for June 30th, 2020).Likewise the date should be valid.For the assignment file, make sure that these headings exist exactly in the *.csv file (i.e. they are at the top of the file):"Entity ID Display""Pref Name Sort""Entity Pref Class Year""Email Pref Address""Salutation""DCF Segment Desc"For the people making videos, make sure that these headings exist exactly in the *.csv file (i.e. they are at the top of the file):"Student Name""Class Year""Email"If any of the above is not the case, the call will fail and throw an error.It is also important to ensure that in the directory (folder) where you are maintaining all the DCF ThankView files, you have directories:assignments/sendsassignments/campaignsAlthough the script will attempt to create these directories if they do not exist, it is recommended that you create them manually. This way, we reduce the possibilities of having any permissions issues arising.Usage# process assignments
