All the conversion to some pseudo-codes are done at backup time.
In the restore process, every link is decoded to new ids.
For now, this is supported:
- In backup:
-all links to forums are encoded.
- In restore:
- all links to forums are decoded.
- from forums (post->message).
- from resources (resource->alltext).
The process requires a backup made with the same version (because it
has to be properly encoded at backup time). Old backups will work
without conversions at all.
Only tested with some little courses.
It would be perfect to have some "big" course to test it.
Please, test and feedback, ciao :-)
Integrated with Moodle:
- Install automatically.
- Update course->blockinfo for each course at installation time.
- Modified course creation to insert into blockinfo field.
- Modified restore to insert into blockinfo field.
- Admin options (hide, show, delete, config) from admin page.
- Lang strings inserted (en only).
- Database support to mysql and postgresql (not tested!!).
Moodle, backup and block versions updated to 2004041800.
Tested with mysql: Install fresh and upgrade from previous.
section_activities block renamed to social_activities and created
its own lang file to support name "Social Activities". This can
be changed at any time.
TODO:
=====
Support it really in backup/restore.
????
Enjoy!! Ciao :-)
in the backup/restore process in order to have every call to file.php
working in destination courses. Specially useful to contents created
with th HTML editor because it uses this type of URLs to images, smiles...
NOTE: This make 1.3 backups not restorable in 1.2 systems !!
- Now course events are supported in backup & restore.
- in manual backups
- in scheduled backups
- Fixed important bug when restoring groups.
- Added support to the "user change password" action
(with some changes done in login/change_password.php)
Please, test it !!!!
- scheduled backups now supports groups info (need to centralize the code!!)
- solved an important issue when restoring users introduced in lib.php v1.44
Bump
TODO:
- Insert info about process in backup_log
- Be able to see that info from admin/backup.php
- Email to the admin with the execution progress
- Create all languaje strings
Bye :-)
"course users" are selected. This uses the xxxx_get_participants()
function in every module.
This solves an issue about info in modules belonging to
unenrolled users (Bug #692 closed).
Mantain compatibility with old backups (1.1 and 1.1.1).
Updated version to "1.2 development".
Included support to "label" module (by Martin)
If it exists in backup-file used, else, old search-by-name is used.
When inserting new categories, stamp is filled it it doesn't exist.
Updated version to 1.1 Beta +++ !!
field is set to yes. Else, a new "local" category is created.
Added some lines of code to mantain old compatibility when detecting
existing questions (do it by name if the stamp is not found) and insert
the stamp too !!
Please, test.
The process look for category, stamp and version to calculate
when to create a question or use a existing one.
This avoid duplicates in RANDOM and RANDOMSAMATCH qtypes.
