Note that most line changes in the patch are caused by the recent
changes in the XMLDB TEXT fields handling (no size specified now) and by
the change in the indentation.
On every invocation, the workshop will give its subplugins a chance to
to something useful. For now, we know that the scheduled allocator will
use it, no need to load other plugin types yet (until there will be a
real reason for it).
For modules that still used the 'old' generic object return from _get_coursemodule_info instead of returning a cached_cm_info object, I changed them to use the new format as part of this. This made a few areas of code regarding onclick links slightly nicer.
Because the Workshop module creates two grade items in the gradebook, we
can't use standard modedit features to set the corresponding category in
the gradebook (it supports single grade item only).
The patch also cleans the mod_form.php so that it does not use the
global $COURSE (just because I do not like this global variable).
And for the record - QuickForms must die.
* Added the component and ratingarea fields and implemented it throughout
the rating API as mandatory fields
* Cleanup rating indexes
* Upgrade forum/data/glossary ratings
* Moved the logic in the render_rating method to methods of the rating object.
* Added new callback for checking ratingareas
* Cleaned comments here and there
* Mark the xxx_get_participants methods as deprecated
* Refactor rate_ajax and ratingsuser_can_view_aggregate methods
* Cleaned up rating/index.php to use html_table object and moved inline styles to CSS.
* Added missing properties of the rating object that were being set throughout the rating
API.
The field holds the name of the grading evaluation method recently used
for the workshop or the default one to be used. At the moment there are
no alternatives but 'best' plugin. But I want to have the field there
before 2.0 stable release and also want to include it in workshop
backups.
Navigation has now been re-ordered in accordance with http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:Navigation_2.0_structure.
This has led to several changes in the way in which navigation is generated included API changes, most notably using the
navigation_nodes add method now returns the newly added node rather than the key.
At the same time the global_navigation_tree block has been renamed to navigation and settings_navigation_tree to settings.
The following minor changes were also made:
* Added roles links to the navigation automatically
* Handling of block context for settings navigation
* Tidied up init code for settings navigation
Moving stuff from lib.php into static methods in localib.php. Removing
things from workshop core that were implemented in a subplugin. Dropping
stuff related to features not to be implemented in 2.0.
The only weak point here is that we store a raw grade into
workshop_grades and not a direct id of the selected level. Therefore,
when re-assessing, we need to actually guess what level the assessor
chose previously. This is not problem if there are not two levels with
the same grade. Such case is not common when using Rubric. In the
future, this may get refactored so Rubric would use its own storage of
filled assessment forms.
DB columns userid renamed to authorid or reviewerid to make the value
clear. Improved manual allocation UI. Raw grades are stored as numeric
values from 0.00000 to 100.00000 (instead of the current 0 to 1) to be
more precise. Started to work on the Grading report (it est the overall
report of all grades form submission and grades for assessments).
