README

This skeleton application helps to create puzzle implementations for Advent of Code.

Key features:

• Tests your code against the demo input + expected answer
• Automatically downloads your full puzzle input
• Automatically submit your answer to Advent of Code

Installation

Create a new local project with

composer create-project petervanderwal/adventofcode-skeleton

and authorize your project to access the Advent of Code website by running

bin/console aoc:auth

Usage

This skeleton follows Symfony best practices.

Puzzles within the App\Puzzle namespace as well as other classes in most other namespaces are automatically registered as service, and dependencies will automatically be injected. The namespaces App\Dto, App\Entity and App\Model are excluded from automatic service registration.

Start with your first puzzle implementation

Open App\Puzzle\Year2024\Day01 within this project, make the necessary adjustments and implement your puzzle solution.

Then run

bin/console aoc:run

which will test your implementation and (when the test was successful) submit your answer to Advent of Code.

Use bin/console aoc:list to list all the puzzle implementations within your project.

More information

Run bin/console aoc:run --help for more info or read the full documentation of petervanderwal/adventofcode-cli
