Overview

The holiday package automates the process of inserting holidays into Ironhack course schedules. It marks specific days as holidays, redistributes content across weeks, and maintains sequential consistency in week and day numbering.

Features

• Marks specific days as holidays in course schedules.
• Redistributes content across weeks to maintain balance.
• Renumbers weeks and days to ensure sequential consistency.
• Creates backups of the original file to prevent data loss.
• Provides detailed logs for transparency and debugging.

Installation

Install the iron-tools CLI globally using npm:

npm install -g @iron-tools/cli
iron-tools --version

Usage

In the same directory where the index.yaml file is located, run the holiday tool using the iron-tools command:

iron-tools @holiday -f <index.yaml> -w <week> -d <day>

Options

• -w, --week <number>: Week number where the holiday should be inserted.
• -d, --day <number>: Day number within the week to mark as a holiday.
• -f, --file <filename>: Path to the input YAML file (default: index.yaml).

Examples

• In your terminal, insert a holiday on Week 2, Day 5 in the schedule:

  $: holidayzer -w 2 -d 5 -f ./index.yaml

Error Handling

The holiday tool provides detailed error messages for common issues, such as:

• Invalid file path or format.
• Invalid week or day number.
• Specified day is already marked as a holiday.
• Week number exceeds the total number of weeks in the course.

How It Works

1. Parses the input index.yaml file to identify week and day blocks.
2. Marks the specified day as a holiday by adding [Holiday] to its name.
3. Redistributes remaining content across weeks to maintain 5 days per week.
4. Renumbers all weeks and days to ensure sequential consistency.
5. Creates a backup of the original file to ensure data safety.
6. Writes the updated schedule back to the file.
