The V2 libraries project had a few past iterations which were never
launched. This commit cleans up pieces from those which we don't need
for the real Libraries Relaunch MVP in Sumac:
* Remove ENABLE_LIBRARY_AUTHORING_MICROFRONTEND,
LIBRARY_AUTHORING_FRONTEND_URL, and
REDIRECT_TO_LIBRARY_AUTHORING_MICROFRONTEND, all of which are obsolete
now that library authoring has been merged into
https://github.com/openedx/frontend-app-authoring.
More details on the new Content Libraries configuration settings are
here: https://github.com/openedx/frontend-app-authoring/issues/1334
* Remove dangling support for syncing V2 (learning core-backed) library
content using the LibraryContentBlock. This code was all based on an
older understanding of V2 Content Libraries, where the libraries were
smaller and versioned as a whole rather then versioned by-item.
Reference to V2 libraries will be done on a per-block basis using
the upstream/downstream system, described here:
https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/blob/master/docs/decisions/0020-upstream-downstream.rst
It's important that we remove this support now so that OLX course
authors don't stuble upon it and use it, which would be buggy and
complicate future migrations.
* Remove the "mode" parameter from LibraryContentBlock. The only
supported mode was and is "random". We will not be adding any further
modes. Going forward for V2, we will have an ItemBank block for
randomizing items (regardless of source), which can be synthesized
with upstream referenced as described above. Existing
LibraryContentBlocks will be migrated.
* Finally, some renamings:
* LibraryContentBlock -> LegacyLibraryContentBlock
* LibraryToolsService -> LegacyLibraryToolsService
* LibrarySummary -> LegacyLibrarySummary
Module names and the old OLX tag (library_content) are unchanged.
Closes: https://github.com/openedx/frontend-app-authoring/issues/1115
Most blocks built into edx-platform have a pair of webpack entry
points, like this:
* {BlockName}Display # js for student+author+public views
* {BlockName}Editor # js for studio view
Prior to a past build refactoring [1], these entry points were
defined in an auto-genered webpack config file. In order
to simplify the js build process, this config generation
step was removed and the new file webpack.builtinblocks.config.js
was checked directly into edx-platform.
However, during that refactoring, pointless entry
points were introduced for HtmlBlock subclasses
About, CourseInfo, and StaticTab, all of which
just use their superclass's JS.
[1] https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/32481
The Webpack configuration file for built-in XBlock JS used to be
generated at build time and git-ignored. It lived at
common/static/xmodule/webpack.xmodule.config.js. It was generated
because the JS that it referred to was also generated at build-time, and
the filenames of those JS modules were not static.
Now that its contents have been made entirely static [1], there is no
reason we need to continue generating this Webpack configuration file.
So, we check it into edx-platform under the name
./webpack.builtinblocks.config.js. We choose to put it in the repo's
root directory because the paths contained in the config file are
relative to the repo's root.
This allows us to behead both the xmodule/static_content.py
(`xmodule_assets`) script andthe `process_xmodule_assets` paver task, a
major step in removing the need for Python in the edx-platform asset
build [2]. It also allows us to delete the `HTMLSnippet` class and all
associated attributes, which were exclusively used by
xmodule/static_content.py..
We leave `xmodule_assets` and `process_xmodule_assets` in as stubs for
now in order to avoid breaking external code (like Tutor) which calls
Paver; the entire pavelib/assets.py function will be eventually removed
soon anyway [3]. Further, to avoid extraneous refactoring, we keep one
method of `HTMLSnippet` around on a few of its former subclasses:
`get_html`. This method was originally part of the XModule framework;
now, it is left over on a few classes as a simple internal helper
method.
