This class would belong more appropriately within the 'user' API
(core_user) instead of within the 'core' API, since it is
directly related to user data.
Since the class has only just been added to Moodle, now is a good
time to move it.
In all cases changes have been kept to a minimum while not making
the code completely horrible. For example, there are many instances
where it would probably be better to rewrite a query entirely, but
I have not done that (in order to reduce the risk of changes).
When some activities are manually completed by students, some are still showing in students' timeline.
This commit fix that for module assign,chat,choice,feedback,lesson,quiz,scorm and workshop.
The capabilities changed ('contextlevel' => CONTEXT_COURSE changed to
'contextlevel' => CONTEXT_MODULE) are:
* moodle/site:accessallgroups
* moodle/site:viewfullnames
* moodle/site:trustcontent
* moodle/site:viewuseridentity
This list came from reviewing the _get_extra_capabilities functions in
all core activities. They were all somewhat inconsistent, but I think it
makes sense that these capabilities are consistently overridable in all
activities. E.g. moodle/site:accessallgroups affects conditional
availability even if there is no other user of groups, and
moodle/site:viewuseridentity and moodle/site:viewfullnames affect the
logs report, if nothing else.
As a result of this, several _get_extra_capabilities functions are no
longer needed, and all the rest have been simplified.
This commit reviews all continue uses in core happening within a
loop / switch / case hierarchy. This does not cover:
- Changes to libraries. Will be handled in another issue / commit.
- Uses out from loops, will be reviewed by other commit.
The policy followed has been:
- When possible, take rid of the continue.
- When clearly the intention was to jump to next element in loop
change to continue 2
- When it was not clear, keep old behavior switching to break, no
matter how weird the behavior may be.
The check determining whether a choice option's limit was exceeded was
including the user's existing answers in its checks, meaning a user
couldn't save an existing choice answer, or select further options,
if all a choice option limit was reached. This patch fixes that.
It was decided to roll only configuration dates and any date related to user content
such as 'timecreated' , 'timemodified' etc should not be rolled forward.
- Activities can have their custom completion rules added to cm_info
through the get_coursemodule_info callback.
- Descriptions of a modules active completion rules can be fetched using
the component callback mod_xxx_get_completion_active_rule_descriptions
which takes in a cm_info object and returns an array of strings.
Part of MDL-58138 epic
If the choice is not available (not open yet), the function must return
false even is CHOICE_SHOWRESULTS_ALWAYS is set to true.
This was failing only in Web Services, in Web that function is not
reached (execution stops when the time open check is done).
Capability to delete reponses becomes capability to delete or modify
responses.
This also resolves MDL-51659 (incorrect events answer_submitted and
answer_updated) by deprecating them and replacing with the answer_created
