- [Improvement] Switch edx-platform from open-release/ironwood.2 tag to
the open-release/ironwood.master branch
- [Security] Upgrade django to 1.11.28
- [Improvement] Make it possible to configure the elasticsearch heap
size
- [Bugfix] Fix broken elasticsearch environment variables
- [Improvement] Restore more recent Android app version (#289).
There are too many patches on top of ironwood.2, and it's not practical
to pull them all one by one. We still want to build on top of a specific
version, and not a branch, so we use a dirty hack to guarantee that the
docker image is properly rebuilt by CI when we change it.
Because we are running a version of elasticsearch older than Methusalem,
the docker environment variables were not properly taken into account.
For instance, the cluster name and "mlockall" settings were incorrect,
as we could see by running:
$ tutor local run lms curl elasticsearch:9200 | grep cluster_name
...
"cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
$ tutor local run lms curl elasticsearch:9200/_nodes/process?pretty | grep mlock
...
"mlockall" : false
See
https://discuss.overhang.io/t/elastic-container-is-not-being-removed/312/3
for discussion.
This fix also introduces a new tutor configuration setting to adjust the
elasticsearch heap size.
A prior change used the ironwood.1 tag to build the Android app in an
attempt to solve #289. Turns out that this change was unnecessary. So
here we revert to a more recent release of the Android app. Instead of
building from the master branch (which might create suprises) we build
from a fixed release tag.
The source repo and version are customisable via build arguments.
Clarify a few variable names, make code more modular. Also, the Renderer
class now makes more sense as a singleton. We took the opportunity to
delete quite a lot of code.
This is for supporting json-based plugins. The great thing about this
change is that it allows us to easily print plugin version numbers in
`plugins list`.
We are facing the following issues in CI:
$ ./dist/tutor --version

https://podman.io/ is meant to be a drop-in replacement for Docker.
Thus, with some tweaking to the installation environment, it appears
to be perfectly feasible to run Tutor in a Docker-less environment
that only has Podman and podman-compose installed.
Add installation instructions for doing just that.
- [Bugfix] Fix oauth authentication in dev mode
- [Improvement] Upgrade to the 3.7 docker-compose syntax
- [Improvement] The `dev runserver` command can now be run for just any
service
- 💥[Feature] `dev run/exec` commands now support generic options which
are passed to docker-compose. Consequently, defining the
`TUTOR_EDX_PLATFORM_PATH` environment variable no longer works. Instead,
users are encouraged to explicitely pass the `-v` option, define a
command alias or create a `docker-compose.override.yml` file.
