K12 Contents - RAISE

This repository contains course content and an authoring environment for the RAISE project.

Content Authors

Getting setup

Before starting the authoring environment you should install the following:

Getting started

This authoring script is designed to help users start, stop, and configure an authoring environment. It provides a set of commands that allow users to create, modify, and delete content variants, and to start editing new rounds of content.

How to Use the Script

To use the script, you need to run it from the command line and provide a valid command as the first argument. Here are the available commands:

  • up: Starts the authoring environment.
  • down: Stops the authoring environment.
  • destroy: Stops the authoring environment and destroys all state.
  • set-variant: Configures the content variant used for preview.
  • reset-variant: Resets the variant used for preview to default.
  • create-variant: Creates a variant HTML file for a page.
  • start-editing: Initializes the environment for a new round of edits.

To launch an environment, you can run the following command passing a unique branch name in place of REPLACEME to create locally:

$ ./scripts/authoring_env.sh start-editing REPLACEME

You can access the moodle instace at http://localhost:8000 and login with admin as the username and password. The command will automatically deploy a course into the Moodle instance with the latest mbz from this repository.

NOTE: The same command should be used when creating a new PR to ensure you are at a known state.

Resuming the environment

In order to start the authoring environment after a system reboot or similar, you can pass the up argument into the authoring_env.sh script.

$ ./scripts/authoring_env.sh up

Stopping the environment

To stop the authoring environment use the down argument.

$ ./scripts/authoring_env.sh down

Creating a variant

The create-variant command is used to create a variant HTML file for a page. To use this command, you need to provide the UUID and variant name arguments. For example, if you want to create a variant HTML file for a page with UUID "123" and variant name "interactive_study", you would run the following command:

$ ./scripts/authoring_env.sh create-variant interactive_study 123

Setting a variant

The set-variant command is used to configure the content variant used for preview. To use this command, you need to provide the name of the variant as an argument. For example, if you want to set the variant to "interactive_study", you would run the following command:

$ ./scripts/authoring_env.sh set-variant interactive_study

Generating MBZ files for import into Moodle

In order to import content from this repository into Moodle, you can run the following script:

$ ./scripts/create_mbz_files.sh

The script will generate files with a git short ref in the filename so it's clear what content version was used to generate the file.

Import mbz content

The content in the mbz directory of this repo can be updated given an input .mbz file:

$ ./scripts/import_mbz.sh content.mbz

The script will create the commit which includes the stages.
