- A shared cookie domain between lms and cms is no longer recommended:
https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/blob/master/docs/guides/studio_oauth.rst
- refactor: clean mounted data folder in lms/cms. In Lilac, the
bind-mounted lms/data and cms/data folders are a mess because new
folders are created there for every new course organisation. These
folders are empty. As far as we know they are useless... With this
change we move these folders to a dedicated "modulestore" subdirectory;
which corresponds better to the initial intent of the fs_root setting.
- fix: frontend failure during login to the lms. See:
https://github.com/openedx/build-test-release-wg/issues/104
- feat: move all forum-related code to a dedicated plugin. Forum is an
optional feature, and as such it deserves its own plugin. Starting from
Maple, users will be able to install the forum from
https://github.com/overhangio/tutor-forum/
- migrate from DCS_* session cookie settings to SESSION_*. That's
because edx-platform no longer depends on django-cookies-samesite. Close
https://github.com/openedx/build-test-release-wg/issues/110
- get rid of tons of deprecation warnings in the lms/cms
- feat: make it possible to point to themed assets. Cherry-picking this
change makes it possible to point to themed assets with a theme-agnostic
url, notably from MFEs.
- Install all official plugins as part of the `tutor[full]` package.
- Don't print error messages about loading plugins during autocompletion.
- Prompt for image building when upgrading from one release to the next.
- Add `tutor local start --skip-build` option to skip building Docker images.
Close #450.
Close #545.
Previously, configuration management was very confusing because we kept mixing
"base" and "defaults" configuration:
- It was difficult to make the difference between core settings that were
necessary (e.g: passwords) as opposed to others that could simply be
defaulted to.
- The order of settings in config.yml mattered: config entries that depended on
other needed to be defined later. As a consequence, Tutor was not compatible
with Python 3.5, where dict entries are not sorted.
