MDL-76499 revealed a few problems with resource generators: 1. We were not covering with unit tests the upload of files from disk (and here it's where the problem was). 2. There was a little of confusion between disk paths (only needed to upload files) and file_area paths (the generator only creates or uploads files to the root directory of the file area. 3. It was possible to request the upload of a file to the generator without that file effectively existing. This commit fixes those points and covers 99% of the generator code.
ACTIVITY MODULES
----------------
These are main modules in Moodle, allowing various activities.
Each of these modules contains a number of expected components:
mod_form.php: a form to setup/update a module instance
version.php: defines some meta-info and provides upgrading code
pix/icon.gif: a 16x16 icon for the module
db/install.xml: an SQL dump of all the required db tables and data
index.php: a page to list all instances in a course
view.php: a page to view a particular instance
lib.php: any/all functions defined by the module should be in here.
constants should be defined using MODULENAME_xxxxxx
functions should be defined using modulename_xxxxxx
There are a number of standard functions:
modulename_add_instance()
modulename_update_instance()
modulename_delete_instance()
modulename_user_complete()
modulename_user_outline()
modulename_cron()
modulename_print_recent_activity()
