This site provides a lightweight and fast way to view the Reed College dining hall menu and hours. It's built entirely in OCaml using the Dream web framework. Right now, it gets data by scraping the Bon Appetit website - they used to have a "legacy" API but unauthenticated access to it was turned off at some point so I think this is the best way to get this data?
Assuming you have opam installed, just run
opam install .and menu will be added to your PATH.
menu connects to a Redis instance located at redis://redis - you can change that in bin/constants.ml. This is used for announcement messages.
The current release version of dream (as of writing) is not compatible with OCaml 5.3 - running this should fix that:
opam pin add dream-pure --dev-repo
opam pin add dream-httpaf --dev-repo
opam pin add dream --dev-repo
