Centralize the logic for choosing between
MFE and Legacy-frontend courseware within
three new functions:
* courseware_mfe_is_active
* courseware_mfe_is_visible
* courseware_legacy_is_visible
This allows us to create another new function:
* get_courseware_url
which can be called anywhere in LMS/Studio
to get the canonical URL to courseware
content (whether it be MFE or Legacy).
In future commits we we begin using
get_courseware_url throughout the platform.

The Django setting
FEATURES['ENABLE_COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND']
has been an additional gate to activating
usage of the Learning MFE for an Open edX
instance.
The toggle is redundant with the
`courseware.courseware_mfe`
Waffle flag. By removing it, we simplify our config
and simplify our path towards making the Learning MFE
the default courseware experience.

In preparation for switching LMS/Studio over
from serving legacy courseware URLs in certain
places (for example, resume_course_url) to serving
learning micro-frontend URLs.

The toggle was previously an ExperimentWaffleFlag,
which allows stable A/B testing but increases the toggle's
complexity. Since we do not plan an doing any more A/B
tests as part of the MFE rollout, we can 'downgrade' this
toggle to a CourseWaffleFlag, which still allows us to do
phased rollout and course-run-specific overrides.
By explicitly importing the legacy namespace classes, we make it clear
that we are using soon-to-be-deprecated classes. We will then be able to
start removing the legacy classes, one module at a time.

This uses the new names introduced in edx-django-utils
3.8.0 (edx/edx-django-utils#59), which we're already using, as
well as updating a few other locations where we incorrectly refer
to New Relic custom metrics instead of custom attributes.
Includes a couple of unrelated lint fixes in a file I modified.
This reverts commit 06e04eff8c.
Omitting the course_key argument to ExperimentWaffleFlag.is_enabled
causes a 500 when the underlying experiment flag is enabled.

Its ripe for confusion to have this logic split between two separate
methods. This consolidation should make things easier to understand and
hopefully, less issue prone.
We don't really benefit from having two methods here anyway, as one is
_only_ ever called by the other.
It's also misleading that the second helper, in `toggles.py`, _also_
checks the FEATURE flag, as well as the waffle flag.
- use new dates banner template on course outline page
- remove old banner from main.html
- let dates tab use new dates banner template
- remove dates banner completely from the courseware problem view
on the web app
- use new banner on the courseware problem view on the mobile app
- update banner util to use get_course_blocks

The courseware_api view will use check_course_access - which now returns AccessResponse objects, and all other uses of check_course_access will now use check_course_access_with_redirect, which is a drop-in replacement for the original check_course_access implementation.
We also added a few new helpers to access_utils:
- check_public_access is a replacement for allow_public_access, which now returns AccessResponse objects
- check_enrollment checks if the learner is enrolled, and uses check_public_access to account for COURSE_ENABLE_UNENROLLED_ACCESS_FLAG
- check_survey checks whether there is a required survey that the learner must complete prior to accessing the course.
There are two new kinds of AccessError subclasses:
- SurveyRequiredAccessError
- EnrollmentRequiredAccessError
We're seeing slow commits on production for courseware_studentmodule
updates. Based on the slow queries during those times, we think it
might be because multiple worker processes are trying to update the
same rows from within long-running transactions (since courseware
is relatively slow).
The risk with this is that since the whole view execution is no
longer wrapped in a big implicit transaction, it's possible that
XBlock state will update and things that key off of that (e.g.
completion progress information or pre-req milestones) will fail
in a way that will leave the database in an unplanned-for state,
though this is already the case for those actions that trigger
asynchronous tasks like grades recalculation.
The query counts for the index view test were adjusted down
because save points count towards the total and we're no longer
setting them at the top level around the view as a whole.
- ensure logic for displaying reset dealines banner in courseware
is behind the relative dates waffle flag, only shows if the
course is self paced, and handles the situation where no
sequentials exist.
Create the COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND_COURSE_TEAM_PREVIEW
CourseWaffleFlag (courseware.microfrontend_course_team_preview) to
enable us to roll out the new Courseware MFE as a preview to
select course teams without affecting their students. TNL-7117
This commit also fixes an issue where these links are shown in Old
Mongo courses (TNL-7116). Old Mongo is marked for deprecation
(DEPR-58), and is not intended to ever be supported by the new MFE.
Check to make sure that "activate_block_id" is actually a Unit
(VerticalBlock) before using it to build a link to the Courseware
MFE. We were previously sending sequence block keys here, causing
the MFE to render a whole sequence where only a unit was desired.
Fixes TNL-7115
Show a link the courseware MFE to course staff if the
ENABLE_COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND feature is enabled and the
REDIRECT_TO_COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND CourseWaffleFlag is active
for that course. Previously only global staff could see this link.
This commit also adds ENABLE_COURSEWARE_MICROFRONTEND to
lms/envs/common.py and makes this value True by default on
devstack, since that front end application should soon be part
of devstack: https://github.com/edx/devstack/pull/484
Related to TNL-6982 and TNL-7045.
This PR is based on #19284 and is part of the
series of work related to the proposal #18134.
This PR avoids the assignment of
anonymous/unenrolled users to any cohort when
course is public. Anonymous or unenrolled users
will only see content that does not have a
content group assigned.
The "View Course" link to the course outline
is shown on the course about page for a course
marked public/public outline.
It also makes course handouts available for
public courses (not for public_outline).
This PR also hides the different warnings and
messages asking the user to sign-in and enroll
in the course, when the course is marked public.
It modifies the default public_view text to
include the component display_name when
unenrolled access is not available.
