Ideally we should generate all the XML based on
modular components so we can also switch templates
between different sizes, this is a first step and
more work should be done in future in this direction.
Also:
- Added a soft password for the
newly generated users so we can use
them to log in the site when running
performance tests.
- Added a method to see the courses-users
relation from outside course_backend class.
The PHP readfile function does not work for files more than 2GB.
This commit provides a wrapper that can be used so that files less
than 2GB are sent with readfile, and files larger than 2GB are
sent manually.
The change applies to all uses of pluginfile.php, although in
reality, backup files are probably the only ones likely to be more
than two gigabytes.
Adds calls to the new backup progress tracking API within various steps of the
backup system - previously it only tracked progress between steps, but some steps
can themselves be slow. This ensures the system displays progress (either by
moving the progress bar if possible, or by making the wibbler below it pulsate)
during nearly all of the backup process.
generate_email_supportuser was not creating user which can
be used by messaging system. core_user::get_support_user()
should be used to get support_user record.
This is used by messaging system for sending/receiving message
to/from noreply or support user. message_send api will now use
core_user class to get noreply or support user and then
send/receive message depending on user state.
* core_useragent: Introduce is_vendor methods to improve readability
when we are just detecting if a browser is from a vendor, rather than
the exact version
* Remove uncessary browser version checks when we are just detecting
vendors - this makes the intention of our sniffing clearer.
* Remove sniffing for browsers which we do not support, grades/ajax/tinymce
all support modern browsers so there is no need to sniff for them.
This patch adds lots of webservices to the assignment module.
* mod_assign_revert_submissions_to_draft
* mod_assign_lock_submissions
* mod_assign_unlock_submissions
* mod_assign_save_submission
* mod_assign_submit_for_grading
* mod_assign_save_grade
* mod_assign_save_user_extensions
* mod_assign_reveal_identities
* mod_assign_copy_previous_attempt
All features such as reopening attempts and marking workflow are supported through
the save_grade and save_submission functions.
Uploading files is supported by sending draft item ids for the files_filemanager param the same functions.
