Defined in:

Overview

RubyUW::CurriculumEnrollment is used to extract SLN information for an entire “curriculum” of courses (whic is how MyUW refers to it). If you have multiple SLNs within the same curriculum (chemistry, computer science, history, etc.), it is more efficient to use the CurriculumEnrollment class rather than SLN.

Requires authentication with RubyUW::Base prior to use!

Usage Examples

require 'rubyuw'
RubyUW::Base.authenticate("netid", "password")
curriculum = RubyUW::CurriculumEnrollment.find("HIST")
curriculum["12345"] # RubyUW::SLN object. Use it like one!

After using CurriculumEnrollment to grab the SLNs of a specific curriculum, you can access the individual SLNs using the array access notation common to ruby. This access returns a SLN object.
