README.md

Advent of Code

This repository provides all my attempts at AdventOfCode puzzles, mainly in Python. As this is a once of year thing, this README is to remind me how it all works at the start of the year.

Features

• Automatically creates directories for puzzles if they don't exist.
• Fetches puzzle details (title and input) using Advent of Code API.
• Supports setting up and using a Python virtual environment via pyenv.
• Offers a Makefile for simplified project management.

Requirements

• Python 3.12+
• Pyenv

Setup

1. Clone the repository.
2. Install pyenv and set up the virtual environment:

   make setup

Usage

Fetch Today's Puzzle

To download and set up today's Advent of Code puzzle (if it's December):

make run

Fetch a Specific Puzzle

To download and set up a puzzle for a specific year and day:

make target YEAR=2026 DAY=1

Structure

• Each year's puzzles are stored in ./<year>/<puzzle-title>.
• Templates for each puzzle are stored in ./<year>/template/.

Notes

• Ensure you have a valid Advent of Code session cookie to fetch puzzle details and inputs.
• The script will prompt for the session cookie if not provided as a command-line argument.
