- Course format may define additional fields (format options) to store for course and each section
- Edit course form allows to edit format-specific options and refreshes their list on format change
- Course format may provide it's own form for editing a section
- Default form for editing section allows to edit all format-specific fields
- Class section_info refactored, it defines magic methods such as __get() to access basic section
information and format-specific options (retrieved only on the first request)
- format_base::update_course_format_options() allows to watch pre-update state of the course,
format_legacy automatically copies the options with the same names between formats
- Avoid using field course_sections.sequence for retrieving the modules list, use functionality from
get_fast_modinfo() instead;
- In the following functions/methods mark arguments $mod, $modnames, $modnamesused and $sections as
not used because they can be taken any time from get_fast_modinfo():
- function print_section()
- protected function format_section_renderer_base::section_summary()
- private function format_section_renderer_base::section_activity_summary
- public function format_section_renderer_base::print_single_section_page
- public function format_section_renderer_base::print_multiple_section_page
- added function get_module_types_names() returning the list of localised strings used for module names;
- added function cm_info::get_used_module_names();
- added magic properties cm_info:: and cm_info:: returning human readable module name;
- replaced usage of function get_all_mods() with get_fast_modinfo() and get_module_types_names();
- function print_section_add_menus() may now retrieve the modules names list itself;
- deprecated function get_all_mods()
- added class format_base as the base for all course formats
- added class format_site for the pseudo-format 'site' used for displaying activities on the front page
- added class format_legacy that overrides format_base functions with calling old-style 'callback_xxx' functions
- replaced all usage of 'callback_xxx' functions with format_base methods
- made arguments of get_section_name(), get_course_url() more flexible
- deprecated function get_generic_section_name(), it's contents is moved to format_base
- global_navigation::format_display_course_content() is removed, plugins can supress the sections navigations using extend_course_navigation()
Initially, the default section title was swapped within the course format
javascript functions. Though some section titles may be custom and does not
require swapping, in addition they may have links to single section view. This
introduces some callback functions for define what needs to be done in
sections libs and js files.
* Introduce function format_weeks_get_section_dates which is used
as the consistent place to calculate the current section start and
end date
* Rework callback_weeks_get_section_name to not use the above function
rather than do crazy needless looping through all sections to work
out the current week title.
* Change the just introduced is_current renderer function to share
the format_weeks_get_section_dates function to ensure both the title
and 'current week' are using the same dates to do their job
