This patch adds asynchronous backup and restore functionality
to Moodle. This is an optional feature and is not enabled by
default. It can be enabled by site administrators.
Asynchronous backup and restores are actioned by the Moodle
adhoc task API. The progress of backup and restores is
displayedin the Moodle UI. Users can also be sent a message
when a backup or restore operation completes via the
Moodle messaging API.
Similarly to how the scheduled tasks work, we now automatically check
and make sure that all the models specified in the component's
db/analytics.php file exist during the installation or upgrade of the
component.
The functionality of the \core_analytics\manager::add_builtin_models()
method is to be replaced with automatic update of models provided by the
core moodle component. There is no need to call this method explicitly
any more. Instead, adding new models will be done by updating the
lib/db/analytics.php file and bumping the core version.
Properly integration badges with competencies provided in Moodle.
Automatically grant the badge when the defined competencies are marked as proficient.
Due to the bug, the no_teaching model might have been marked as
not-trained in the database. Static predictions models (i.e. those using
a target based on assumptions, not facts) are always considered as
trained. If they were marked as not-trained, the prediction scheduled
task would skip them and they would produce no predictions.
Ideally, such a fix should be done for all static models. But there is
no easy way to do it during the upgrade where accessing the analytics
API is not possible. I don't think there are many models out there that
would be affected by this so this seems to be good enough solution for
now (and the future ability to reset models will cover the rest).
The useridfrom would normally be a foreign key to the users table. But
it can also contain some extra negative values with special semantics
(-10 or -20 for no-reply or support user). Therefore we can't make it a
foreign key and the index must be created explicitly.
