The change to masquerade in the courseware view allows the proper
viewing of the xblock from the perspective of the masqueraded user.
In this case, it allows a staff user masquerading as a learner to see
their shift dates calls to action inside the MFE (the old view already
had this set up). The second change allows the staff user masquerading
to reset the schedule of the learner being masqueraded via the CTAs
As part of AA-500, we added a completeness check to showing the
banner since we didn't before. As part of AA-260, we now take into
account if a learner has more attempts left on a problem (regardless
of completeness) and allow them to shift their dates to try again.
Specifically, send data versions of course_expired_message and
offer_html.
The rendered HTML is still being sent for now, until the learning
MFE is updated to consume the data objects.
Update toggle_name annotations from "XXX"
to "FEATURES['XXX']" to match the name
used by the toggle state endpoint so they
don't seem like two different toggles.
This change was reverted along with the downgrade of super-csv because
it was believed that this change was causing issues with celery task
registration.
It was reverted in https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/pull/25762
The fix turned out to be something different and this and the
super-csv library should both be same to upgrade. The library
upgrade will come in a follow-on make upgrade with some other
constraints that also need to be lifted.
Actual fix: https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/pull/25822
This should prevent the issues we've seen recently where cms modules are
imported by the running lms process, resulting in two celery instances
being created and tasks intermittently being registered to the wrong
instance (and therefore effectively lost.)
In commit ab6bf348d4/PR #25822 we tried to ensure that only one or the
other of the instances was created by adding a startup check.
Unfortunately, there's an external shared library that refers directly
to the lms celery, causing a startup failure in cms, so we had to revert
it. Rather than waiting to fix that library, this commit collapses
the two instances together so that there is only ever one.
Ticket: BOM-2086
Currently there are parts of the LMS that import content from the CMS
APP and vice-versa. When this happens, we end up with 2 instances of
the celery app and some tasks get registered to the wrong one. The
tasks that were getting registered to the wrong one are never able to
run and result in lots of production errors on celery workers.
The timing of the CMS celery app instantiation is non deterministic
so different tasks get lost depending on when it's imported by some
code in the LMS.
As long as SERVICE_VARIANT is set, this code should prevent the
instantiation of both celery apps.
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.
