Using Codeforces API to build a problem list for each contest

Revision en1, by Laggy, 2017-12-30 14:20:17

Hey guys, I am working on a virtual contest picker as part of the algo-chan project. I am trying to use http://codeforces.net/api/problemset.problems to build a problem list for each contest but this won't work because of contests with more than one division only the appended problems show there.

Example: ContestsL 872,871,870 870 seems like the base for the other two but there's no way to know where the other two start. For 872 the api doesn't even know about it's existence.

I hope MikeMirzayanov or anyone who has experience with doing something like this could help. PS: I am trying to use the API and not parse every codeforces.com/contest/id page. (Keeping this as a last resort)

Thanks in advance.
