`tutor dev runserver` will be removed in a future release.
Developers are encouraged to use `tutor dev start` instead,
which is more flexible and provides a consistent interface
with `tutor local start`.
As part of this deprecation, we enable the `tty` and
`stdin_open` options on development docker-compose
services. This will allow developers to use `start`
for breakpoint debugging, which was previously only
availble via `runserver`. Several parallel PRs have
been merged in order to make the same change in the
development services of the official plugins.
Although `start` does not support the `--volume` option,
it supports a more-powerful `--mount` option. So, where
developers previously used:
tutor dev runserver --volume ...
to bind-mount host directories, they should now use:
tutor dev start --mount ...

Changing the appearance of Open edX
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
Installing a custom theme
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
Comprehensive theming is enabled by default, but only the default theme is compiled. `Indigo <https://github.com/overhangio/indigo>`__ is a better, ready-to-run theme that you can start using today.
|
|
|
|
To compile your own theme, add it to the ``env/build/openedx/themes/`` folder::
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/me/myopenedxtheme.git \
|
|
"$(tutor config printroot)/env/build/openedx/themes/myopenedxtheme"
|
|
|
|
The ``themes`` folder should have the following structure::
|
|
|
|
openedx/themes/
|
|
mycustomtheme1/
|
|
cms/
|
|
...
|
|
lms/
|
|
...
|
|
mycustomtheme2/
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
Then you must rebuild the openedx Docker image::
|
|
|
|
tutor images build openedx
|
|
|
|
Finally, you should enable your theme with the :ref:`settheme command <settheme>`.
|

Developing a new theme
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
With Tutor, it's pretty easy to develop your own themes. Start by placing your files inside the ``env/build/openedx/themes`` directory. For instance, you could start from the ``edx.org`` theme present inside the ``edx-platform`` repository::
|
|
|
|
cp -r /path/to/edx-platform/themes/edx.org "$(tutor config printroot)/env/build/openedx/themes/"
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
You should not create a soft link here. If you do, it will trigger a ``Theme not found in any of the themes dirs`` error. This is because soft links are not properly resolved from inside docker containers.
|
|
|
|
Then, run a local webserver::
|
|
|
|
tutor dev start lms
|
|
|
|
The LMS can then be accessed at http://local.overhang.io:8000. You will then have to :ref:`enable that theme <settheme>`::
|
|
|
|
tutor dev settheme mythemename
|
|
|
|
Watch the themes folders for changes (in a different terminal)::
|
|
|
|
tutor dev run watchthemes
|
|
|
|
Make changes to some of the files inside the theme directory: the theme assets should be automatically recompiled and visible at http://local.overhang.io:8000.
