Usage

Book a room

Allows for booking rooms by showing the available rooms for the given date and time.

$ bgc book <date> <time>

• <date> can be either an absolute date (YYYYMMDD, YYMMDD) or a relative date (MMDD, DD, D, today, tomorrow, monday, tuesday ...)
• <time> can be either (HH:mm-HH:mm, HH-HH, H-H, H-HH, HH-H) or aliases like lunch

The book sub-command also takes the following optional flags:

• --cid <cid> to perform the book request with a specified cid
• --campus <campus> or -c <campus> to filter the available rooms by a specified campus. (Valid campuses are J, Johanneberg, L and Lindholmen. Note that these values are not case-sensitive)
• --size <size> or -s <size> to filter the available rooms by size and will only show the rooms that are big enough. (When a size is specified the list of available rooms will also show the capacity of each room)
• --room <room> or -r <room> to try to book a specified room (the name of the room is case-insensitive) instead of letting you choose one interactively from the list of available rooms.
• --message <message> or -m <message> to add a specific message to the booking instead of asking for it interactively.

List booked rooms

$ bgc list

Delete booked rooms

$ bgc delete
