Courseworks Namelist Exctraction

To get a list of student names from an LMS powered by Canvas (https://www.instructure.com/canvas/higher-education?newhome=canvas):

• Go to the People page for the class
  
• Set the role to student
  
• Run the below JS snippet in your browser console:
  

   targets = document.getElementsByClassName("roster_user_name student_context_card_trigger");
   namelist = []
   for(x = 0; x < targets.length; x++) {
   	namelist.push(targets[x].innerText);
   }
   console.log(namelist.toString());

This should log a comma separated list that this program accepts :)
