Helpers

These helpers make my day easier by downloading puzzle input and creates fancy PDF assignments, which can be sent to a printer at 05:00 UTC. 🙂

Requirements for `new_day`

First, install dependencies. On Fedora:

sudo dnf install php-cli php-xml pandoc

or on Debian:

sudo apt install php-cli php-curl php-xml pandoc

Then, steal AoC cookie and put it to ../cookies.txt. To make the task easier, use cookies.txt Firefox add-on.

To get the puzzle text, input and log book template for day 3 of 2024, run:

./new_day https://adventofcode.com/2024/day/3
