The changes introduced here are completely safe, just we stop
binding SITEID and, instead, embed it in the SQL.
Why? Because Oracle 21 has started to return non-sense results
when SITEID is bound.
After lots of tests, attempts, debugging... we have been unable
to find any logic to the need of this change and also, have been
unable to reproduce the problem with a standalone script that
pretty much runs the same queries that the ones changed here.
I'm sure that there is something, somewhere, but have failed
to find it, grrr.
Please read MDL-75208 and linked issues to find more information
about this problem, that is one of the biggest mysteries I've
seen recently. Maybe at the end there is a tiny detail that
explains it all, but it's really well hidden.
When we change the position of two sections, we just need to update
the position of the affected sections, not all the sections in the course.
This will improve the performance since the system only executes the queries to affected sections.
Also, the system only clears the cache for affected sections, not all the sections in the course.
When updating/deleting a section/module, the system now only
invalidate of the element (section/module), not the whole course cache
Also, the system now only recalculate the cache for element (section/module)
if necessary, not the whole course cache
Move module/section purging to course_modinfo:
+ course_modinfo::purge_course_section_cache_by_id was created to purge section by id
+ course_modinfo::purge_course_section_cache_by_number was created to purge section by number
+ course_modinfo::purge_course_module_cache was created to purge module
The versioning changes will require some major changes
in the backup and restore of question bank and its
elements. This change introduces those changes to make
it compatible with the new world of versioning in question
bank. This commit also removes quiz_slots fields and
quiz_slot_tags table.
This commit will also introduce the versioning db
structure and some major changes to the quiz
and quiz attempts for the question, random
question and the view.
This commit implements the behat changes for versioning
in core question and associated locations.
The course_get_user_navigation_options() is called on each request
from the add_course_essentials() method, to initialise the basic
navigation options that are available or not for the current user.
This information is not always displayed in boost (for
instance, in a module page), but it might be required by some blocks,
like Navigation.
However, this block is hidden by default in boost since MDL-73347,
so at any point we should check if it's possible to change the way
this navigations options is loaded, to only get this information
when it's strictly required.
If there are no course badges, students shouldn't have a link to a
page saying there are no badges available.
This patch is for displaying the Badges in the secondary navigation
only if the user can manage badges or there is, at least, one
badge available to the current user.
Move a module to another section needs to update its visibility after
placing it into the new section. Otherwise an invalid database state
prevents the system to move any module with a completion rule
involving grades.
The existing course format plugins are not adapted tu use the new
courseformat subsystem. This means they don't provide a valid renderer,
or hardcode the inclusion of the topics renderer.php file, or do not
extend the format renderer but the core one (missing some methods). This
commit provides some quick fixes to prevent exceptions.
The course index is the first UI component that implements the new
drawers and the reactive components. The course index uses the course
state to present the current course structure and changes whenever
that structure change.
The module now exports a getCourseEditor and a getCurrentCourseEditor
methods. The module is more consistent as it can be used to get
other course than the current one.
The new course editor for Moodle 4.0 is the first AMD
module that will use the new reactive library. This
commit creates creates the initial structure of the
new course editor frontend.
