In the past, tutor was installed with "pip install tutor-openedx". For
some time (since v12.0.2), "tutor" was installed as a dependency of
"tutor-openedx". Now is the time to get rid of that old package.
The standard way of installing tutor is now with "pip install tutor".
Previously, the tutor-openedx package was loading tons of template data from
the MANIFEST.in. Turns out, we cannot ignore the MANIFEST.in file with
setuptools. So we need to move tutor-openedx to a separate, dedicated folder.
To auto-discover the package version, we copy it at runtime (in the make
command).
GitHub Actions now performs the following tasks:
- run tests on every PR
- sync with git.overhang.io on push
- build binary releases on tags
Travis.CI was completely removed from this repo.
All existing plugins are added to the binary bundle, in their latest
version, so that users don't need to pip install tutor.
Also, the tutor MANIFEST.in file was removed to simplify the management
of package data.
Close #242.
Replace all make commands by a single "tutor" binary. Environment and
data are all moved to ~/.tutor/local/share/tutor. We take the
opportunity to add a web UI and revamp the documentation.
This is a complete rewrite.
Close #121.
Close #147.
This allows us to deploy much faster: all we have to do is to copy the
assets from the container to the shared volume.
We also changed the way themes are managed: similarly to static assets,
they are now packaged inside the docker image.
Added the possibility to easily change the ports that nginx listens to.
This is useful, for instance when Apache or Nginx already runs on the
host. With this change, it is no longer necessary to edit the
docker-compose file to modify these ports.
To deploy with alternate ports, add a `.env` file with the following
contents:
```
OPENEDX_NGINX_PORT=8080
OPENEDX_NGINX_TLSPORT=8443
```
Template files are now directly loaded in the configurator container, so
that it is possible to run the configurator container directly, outside
of this project.
HTTPS is now fully supported. The ACTIVATE_HTTPS feature flag needs to
be set. Required domain names are LMS_HOST, preview.LMS_HOST and
CMS_HOST.
Close #46.
Xqueue containers consist of two services: a gunicorn service, that
receives requests from LMS/CMS, and a worker service. I guess the worker
service receives orders from the gunicorn service, through rabbitmq.
(but I'm less than certain about that).
While adding xqueue containers, we refactored the way mysql databases
are created, and how the root password is loaded. Also, we silenced some
options from the configure script.
Images are no longer built locally, Instead, they are downloaded from
docker hub. This completely changes config file organisation. In
particular, we no longer copy configuration files to the original docker
image.
