Skedular was the (2009-10) scheduling software. It was written by Michael Cullen to interface with the new website. As of Autumn 2011 it is in the process of being replaced by Tarantula.

Installation

Get it from https://ystvdev.york.ac.uk/svn/skedular/trunk/ (not https://ystvdev.york.ac.uk/svn/skedular/Skedular/ which is an old attempt by Alex Appleton that didn't get very far).

You need the Gentoo package libpqxx for this.

In the src directory there are a few shell scripts:

  • make.sh - makes the ready-for-installation version
  • make-inter.sh - makes a locally running (see the next one) non-daemonising version
  • make-local.sh - makes a locally runnable version (writes logs and gets configs from the current directory)
