Templated hooks we almost completely useless, so we get rid of them.
This allows us to get rid entirely of hook names and hook indexes, which
makes the whole implementation much simpler. Hook removal (with
`clear_all`) is achieved thanks to weak references.
Instead, the compose plugin must be installed.
We deprecate docker-compose because v1 is not supported starting from
the end of June 2023.
See "evolution of compose": https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-v2/
Among other changes: ORA2 file uploads were stored in a folder named
"SET-ME-PLEASE (ex. bucket-name)" (sigh). With this change, the folder
should be automatically renamed to "openedxuploads". This issue has been
occuring since June 2019... (sigh²)
Close #707
We implement this TEP: https://discuss.openedx.org/t/tutor-enhancement-proposal-tep-plugin-indices/8182
With plugin indexes, tutor users can install and upgrade plugins directly from indexes:
tutor plugins install ecommerce
tutor plugins index add contrib
tutor plugins install codejail
tutor plugins upgrade all
This change has been long in the coming \o/
We introduce a new filter to implement custom commands in arbitrary containers.
It becomes easy to write convenient ad-hoc commands that users will
then be able to run either on Kubernetes or locally using a documented CLI.
Pluggable jobs are declared as Click commands and are responsible for
parsing their own arguments. See the new CLI_DO_COMMANDS filter.

The -m/--mount option makes it possible to bind-mount volumes at runtime. The
volumes are declared in a local/docker-compose.tmp.yml file. The problem with
this approach is when we want to bind-mount a volume to a service which is
specific to the dev context. For instance: the "learning" service when the MFE
plugin is enabled.
In such a case, starting the service triggers a call to `docker-compose stop`
in the local context. This call fails because the "learning" service does not
exist in the local context. Note that this issue only seems to occur with
docker-compose v1.
To resolve this issue, we create two additional filters for
the dev context, which emulate the behaviour of the local context. With this approach, we convert the -m/--mount arguments right after they are parsed. Because they are parsed just once, we can get rid of the de-duplication logic initially introduced with the COMPOSE_CLI_MOUNTS context.
Close #711. Close also https://github.com/overhangio/tutor-mfe/issues/57.
Whenever Tutor executes a shell command, it logs out said
command in order to aid in end user understanding/debugging.
In some cases (notably, when running jobs in containers)
the logged command was not accurately quoted. The command
was run correctly, because it was passed in pieces to
``subprocess.Popen``, which correctly joins the pieces together
into a valid POSIX shell command; however, the logged version
of the command was constructed by simply joining the pieces
with spaces. This usually works, but breaks down when running
complex shell commands with nested quoting.
This commit changes the logging to use ``shlex.join``, which
joins command pieces together in a POSIX-compliant way,
presumably the same way as ``subprocess.Popen``.
Example:
tutor local importdemocourse
runs the shell command:
docker-compose -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.yml -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.prod.yml -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.tmp.yml --project-name tutor_local -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.jobs.yml -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.jobs.tmp.yml run --rm cms-job sh -e -c 'echo "Loading settings $DJANGO_SE... (several more script lines) ...eindex_course --all --setup'
but the logged shell command was:
docker-compose -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.yml -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.prod.yml -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.tmp.yml --project-name tutor_local -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.jobs.yml -f /home/kyle/.local/share/tutor/env/local/docker-compose.jobs.tmp.yml run --rm cms-job sh -e -c echo "Loading settings $DJANGO_SE... (several more script lines) ...eindex_course --all --setup
which will not run if copied and pasted back into the
user's terminal, as the importdemocourse shell script is unquoted.
Limits the memory chek to the 'local quickstart' command, makes error
handling more accurate and adds warning messages for some conditions.
Also adds a mention of this in troubleshooting.rst.
Adds a check in the 'local' command group that requires at least
4 GB of RAM to be allocated to Docker when running any of the
local subcommands on macOS. This addresses a common issue where
Docker's default setting (2 GB) causes startup to crash with
misleading error messages.

We are running in strict mode, which is awesome!
This affects a large part of the code base, which might be an issue for
people running a fork of Tutor. Nonetheless, the behavior should not be
affected. If anything, this process has helped find and resolve a few
type-related bugs. Thus, this is not considered as a breaking change.
Here, we upgrade the Open edX platform from Ironwood to Juniper. This
upgrade does not come with many feature changes, but there are many
technical improvements under the hood:
- Upgrade from Python 2.7 to 3.5
- Upgrade from Mongodb v3.2 to v3.6
- Upgrade Ruby to 2.5.7
We took the opportunity to completely rething the way locally running
platforms should be accessed for testing purposes. It is no longer
possible to access a running platform from http://localhost and
http://studio.localhost. Instead, users should access
http://local.overhang.io and https://studio.local.overhang.io. This
drastically simplifies internal communication between Docker containers.
To upgrade, users should simply run:
tutor local quickstart
For Kubernetes platform, the upgrade process is outlined when running:
tutor k8s upgrade --from=ironwood
tls renewal and generation was failing in cron jobs because of "The
input device is not a TTY" errors. This is because the "-it" docker
option does not work when a tty is not available.
This commit introduces many changes:
- a fully functional minio plugin for local installation
- an almost-functional native k8s deployment
- a new way to process configuration, better suited to plugins
There are still many things to do:
- get rid of all the TODOs
- get a fully functional minio plugin for k8s
- add documentation for pluginso
- ...
Missing features:
- https certificates
- xqueue
- lms/cms workers
Moreover, we scalability issues due to the uploaded file storage in the
lms/cms. To address this issue we need to develop the MinIO plugin so
that it becomes compatible with Open edX.

Configuration loading was overly complex. Here, we simplify it
drastically with reasonable defaults. Hacky additional variables are
unncessary now that we use custom jinja2 filters.
Configuration values can be loaded from the system environment by adding
a "TUTOR_" prefix.
Environment values supersede values from the user configuration file, so
that we can set values from the command line with "KEY=VAL tutor config
save --silent" even when KEY is already present in the user
configuration file.
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.
