gradebook

Please tag @edx/educator-neem on any PRs or issues.

Introduction

The front-end of our editable Gradebook feature.

Usage

To install gradebook into your project:

npm i --save @edx/frontend-app-gradebook

Running the UI Standalone

To install the project please refer to the edX Developer Stack instructions.

The web application runs on port 1994, so when you go to http://localhost:1994/course-v1:edX+DemoX+Demo_Course you should see the UI (assuming you have such a Demo Course in your devstack). Note that you always have to provide a course id to actually see a gradebook.

If you don't, you can see the log messages for the docker container by executing make gradebook-logs in the devstack directory.

Note that starting the container executes the npm run start script which will hot-reload JavaScript and Sass files changes, so you should (:crossed_fingers:) not need to do anything (other than wait) when making changes.

Configuring for local use in edx-platform

Assuming you've got the UI running at http://localhost:1994, you can configure the LMS in edx-platform to point to your local gradebook from the instructor dashboard by putting this settings in lms/env/private.py:

WRITABLE_GRADEBOOK_URL = 'http://localhost:1994'

There are also several edx-platform waffle and feature flags you'll have to enable from the Django admin:

  1. Grades > Persistent grades enabled flag. Add this flag if it doesn't exist, check the enabled and enabled for all courses boxes.

  2. Waffle > Switches. Add the grades.assume_zero_grade_if_absent switch and make it active.

  3. Waffle_utils > Waffle flag course overrides. You want to activate this flag for any course in which you'd like to enable the gradebook. Add a course override flag using a course id and the flag name grades.writable_gradebook. Make sure to check the enabled box. Alternatively, you could add this as a regular waffle flag to enable the gradebook for all courses.

Running tests

  1. Assuming that you're operating in the context of the edX devstack, run gradebook-shell from your devstack directory. This will start a bash shell inside your running gradebook container.
  2. Run make test (which executes npm run test). This will run all of the gradebook tests.
