This is a simple python program to list all of your courses list_your_courses.py

The work is done by one function:

def list_your_courses():
       courses_found_thus_far=[]
       # Use the Canvas API to get the list of all of your courses
       # GET /api/v1/courses

       url = baseUrl
       if Verbose_Flag:
              print("url: " + url)

       r = requests.get(url, headers = header)
       if Verbose_Flag:
              write_to_log("result of getting courses: " + r.text)

       if r.status_code == requests.codes.ok:
              page_response=r.json()

       for p_response in page_response:  
              courses_found_thus_far.append(p_response)

       # the following is needed when the response has been paginated
       # i.e., when the response is split into pieces - each returning only some of the list of modules
       # see "Handling Pagination" - Discussion created by tyler.clair@usu.edu on Apr 27, 2015, https://community.canvaslms.com/thread/1500
       while r.links['current']['url'] != r.links['last']['url']:  
              r = requests.get(r.links['next']['url'], headers=header)  
              if Verbose_Flag:
                     write_to_log("result of getting courses for a paginated response: " + r.text)
              page_response = r.json()  
              for p_response in page_response:  
                     courses_found_thus_far.append(p_response)

       return courses_found_thus_far

It is while tests in line 25 in the above listing that checks to see if we have reached the last page of a paginated response.
