CLI tool for creating sio2 task packages

Project description

sinol-make

sinol-make is a CLI tool for creating and verifying problem packages for sio2 with features such as:

  • measuring time and memory in the same deterministic way as sio2,
  • running the solutions in parallel,
  • keeping a git-friendly report of solutions' scores,
  • catching mistakes in the problem packages as early as possible,
  • and more.

Why?

The purpose of the tool is to make it easier to create good problem packages for official competitions, which requires collaboration with other people and using a multitude of "good practices" recommendations. While there are several excellent CLI tools for creating tests and solutions, they lack some built-in mechanisms for verifying packages and finding mistakes before uploading the package to the judge system. As sinol-make was created specifically for the sio2 problem packages, by default it downloads and uses sio2's deterministic mechanism of measuring solutions' runtime, called oiejq.

Installation

It's possible to directly install sinol-make through Python's package manager pip, which usually is installed alongside Python:

pip3 install sinol-make

As oiejq works only on Linux-based operating systems, we do not recommend using operating systems such as Windows or macOS. Nevertheless sinol-make supports those operating systems, though there are additional installation steps required to use other tools for measuring time (which are non-deterministic and produce reports different from sio2):

  • Windows (WSL): apt install time timeout
  • macOS: brew install gnu-time coreutils

Usage

The availabe commands (see sinol-make --help) are:

  • sinol-make run -- Runs selected solutions (by default all solutions) on selected tests (by default all tests) with a given number of CPUs. Measures the solutions' time with oiejq, unless specified otherwise. After running the solutions, it compares the solutions' scores with the ones saved in config.yml. Run sinol-make run --help to see available flags.
  • sinol-make inwer -- Verifies whether input files are correct using your "inwer.cpp" program. You can specify what inwer program to use, what tests to check and how many CPUs to use. Run sinol-make inwer --help to see available flags.
