On another Note:

• However, currently as of 13 April, 16:44, it seems that the database for past year papers is facing some issues with verification. Yet, after throwing incorrect authentication errors back at the user, the user is actually already signed in. Currently, this can be bypassed by simply removing the return statement in the if_else clause in examdownloader.py. To do that, you will have to build the application for yourself for now.

$ python examdownloader-cli.py

The required username and target destination can be set in the script or passed as a command line argument. If no command line arguments are provided, the user is prompted for input.

$ python examdownloader-gui.py

1. Install pyinstaller:

$ pip install pyinstaller

2. Compile the app:

$ pyinstaller build.spec

The compiled app can be found inside the dist folder.
