AuleVuoteBocconi is a tool that helps you find empty classrooms at Bocconi University that are not marked as official study rooms in the website https://didattica.unibocconi.it/aule/lista_orario.php. It analyzes the lecture schedule from the official Bocconi website and shows available rooms in real time.

🚀 Getting Started

1. Clone or download the project.

This script will retrieve the latest classroom schedule from Bocconi's official website and store it in:

/public/cache_orario.json

🔁 Automatic Updates (Optional)

To keep your schedule data always up to date, you can automate the script using cron to run every 30 minutes.

1. Open your crontab editor:

crontab -e

2. Add the following line at the end of the file (update the path if needed):

*/30 * * * * /usr/local/bin/node /absolute/path/to/fetch_orario.js >> /absolute/path/to/orario.log 2>&1

3. Save and exit using CTRL+X, then confirm with Y and ENTER.

🌐 Viewing the Schedule

Once the cache_orario.json file is updated, simply open index.html with a Web Server, like the one in VS Code or Apache2 or Nginx.

You’ll see a list of all currently free classrooms in the university where you can study peacefully—without needing to go to a crowded study room.
