Introducing both APIs in moodle along with:
- search_box widget to add a tiny search box
- admin settings with setup steps helper
- cache for search results
- template for a search result
- php unit stuff
Many thanks to Tomasz Muras, Prateek Sachan and Daniel Neis for their contributions, for starting this development
and for pushing for it to be completed. Also thanks to other contributors: Jonathan Harker and eugeneventer.
This commit defines the new /availability root folder, with
/availability/classes, /availability/tests, and
/availability/condition where the condition plugins will live.
Condition plugin prefix is availability_, e.g. availability_date.
Rationale for this organisation:
1. I was originally going to put this in /lib/availability but
it has been pointed out that putting even more junk in lib
is probably bad.
2. 'availability' and 'condition' are the two names used in code
to refer to this system ($CFG->enableavailability).
3. The prefix has to be short enough to allow database tables
(although in practice I assume that condition plugins will not
normally contain database tables).
The new API includes a Boolean tree structure that controls the
availability of an item.
AMOS BEGIN
CPY [availabilityconditions,core_condition],[restrictaccess,core_availability]
CPY [enableavailability,core_condition],[enableavailability,core_availability]
CPY [configenableavailability,core_condition],[enableavailability_desc,core_availability]
AMOS END
The badges feature allows to integrate Mozilla "Open Badges" to issue, assign,
manage and display digital badges in Moodle. This feature supports:
-- badge creation and issuing based on criteria
-- badge baking and verification service
-- direct pushing of internal badges to external backpack
-- interanl and external badge display in Moodle
-- Moodle block to display latest badges
Please note you need to define PHPUNIT_LONGTEST in config.php or phpunit.xml to get the tests to execute because it takes long time to fetch the geoip data and we do not want to DDOS geoPlugin server.
