If a learner has not accessed/attempted the score override functionality
didn't work. This PR is intended to fix this behaviour and the
override should work regardless of learner has accessed or attempted
a problem or not.
The verified seat upgrade deadline for self-paced course runs is now
dependent on when the learner was first able to access the content--the
latest of enrollment date and course run start date.
This abstract class contains most of the fields (aside from the id and
foreign key to StudentModule that the subclasses need to manage). It
also provides a get_history method that abstracts searching across
multiple backends.
Move router code to openedx/core
We need to use it from cms and lms.
Ensure aws_migrate can be used for migrating both the lms and cms.
Handle queries directed to student_module_history vs default and the
extra queries generated by Django 1.8 (SAVEPOINTS, etc).
Additionally, flag testing classes as multi_db so that Django will
flush the non-default database between unit tests.
Further decouple the foreignkey relation between csm and csmhe
When calling StudentModule().delete() Django will try to delete CSMHE
objects, but naively does so in the database, not by consulting the
database router.
Instead, we disable django cascading deletes and listen for post_delete
signals and clean up CSMHE by hand.
Add feature flags for CSMHE
One to turn it on/off so we can control the deploy.
The other will control whether or not we read from two database tables
or one when searching.
Update tests to explicitly use this get_history method rather than
looking directly into StudentModuleHistory or
StudentModuleHistoryExtended.
Inform lettuce to avoid the coursewarehistoryextended app
Otherwise it fails when it can't find features/ in that app.
Add Pg support, this is not tested automatically.
This is a clone (copy) of CSMH's declaration and methods with an added
id of UnsignedBigInAutoField
We should be able to delete the save_history code, but needs testing.
Add error logging when capa failures happen
Put StudentModuleHistory into its own database
Bump out the primary key on CSMHE
This gives us a gap to backfill as needed.
Since the new table's pk is an unsigned bigint, even for people who don't
consolidate CSMH into CSMHE, the lost rows are unlikely to matter.
Remove StudentModuleHistory cleaner
The progress page did a number of things that make performance terrible for
courses with large numbers of problems, particularly if those problems are
customresponse CapaModule problems that need to be executed via codejail.
The grading code takes pains to not instantiate student state and execute the
problem code. If a student has answered the question, the max score is stored
in StudentModule. However, if the student hasn't attempted the question yet, we
have to run the problem code just to call .max_score() on it. This is necessary
in grade() if the student has answered other problems in the assignment (so we
can know what to divide by). This is always necessary to know in
progress_summary() because we list out every problem there. Code execution can
be especially slow if the problems need to invoke codejail.
To address this, we create a MaxScoresCache that will cache the max raw score
possible for every problem. We select the cache keys so that it will
automatically become invalidated when a new version of the course is published.
The fundamental assumption here is that a problem cannot have two different
max score values for two unscored students. A problem *can* score two students
differently such that they have different max scores. So Carlos can have 2/3 on
a problem, while Lyla gets 3/4. But if neither Carlos nor Lyla has ever
interacted with the problem (i.e. they're just seeing it on their progress
page), they must both see 0/4 -- it cannot be the case that Carlos sees 0/3 and
Lyla sees 0/4.
We used to load all student state into two separate FieldDataCache instances,
after which we do a bunch of individual queries for scored items. Part of this
split-up was done because of locking problems, but I think we might have gotten
overzealous with our manual transaction hammer.
In this commit, we consolidate all state access in grade() and progress()
to use one shared FieldDataCache. We also use a filter so that we only pull
back StudentModule state for things that might possibly affect the grade --
items that either have scores or have children.
Because some older XModules do work in their __init__() methods (like Video),
instantiating them takes time, particularly on large courses. This commit also
changes the code that fetches the grading_context to filter out children that
can't possibly affect the grade.
Finally, we introduce a ScoresClient that also tries to fetch score
information all at once, instead of in separate queries. Technically, we are
fetching this information redundantly, but that's because the state and score
interfaces are being teased apart as we move forward. Still, this only
amounts to one extra SQL query, and has very little impact on performance
overall.
Much thanks to @adampalay -- his hackathon work in #7168 formed the basis of
this.

relocate badly placed edvent handlers to fix multiple submit problem
individual students, and a reimplementation of the individual due date
feature.
This work introduces an architecture, used with the 'authored_data'
portion of LmsFieldData, which allows arbitrary field overrides to be
made for fields that are part of the course content or settings (Mongo
data). The basic architecture is extensible by means of writing and
configuring arbitrary field override providers.
One concrete implementation of a field override provider is provided
which allows for overrides to be for individual students. This provider
is then used as a basis for reimplementing the individual due date
extensions feature as a proof of concept for the design.
One can imagine writing override providers that provide overrides based
on a student's membership in a cohort or other similar idea. This work
is being done, in fact, to pave the way for the Personal Online Courses
feature being developed by MIT, which will use an override provider very
much long those lines.
This commit updates lms/djangoapps/courseware.
These keys are now objects with a limited interface, and the particular
internal representation is managed by the data storage layer (the
modulestore).
For the LMS, there should be no outward-facing changes to the system.
The keys are, for now, a change to internal representation only. For
Studio, the new serialized form of the keys is used in urls, to allow
for further migration in the future.

[LMS-2370]
This restores functionality that has been broken since the introduction of
XModuleDescriptor/XModule proxying (part of the XBlock transition). It generates
a CSV of all answers for all content of type "problem" in a given course, with a
row per (problem part, answer). The format is:
url_name, display name, answer id, answer, count
Example values:
url_name = "7f1b1523a55848cd9f5c93eb8cbabcf7"
display name = "Problem 1: Something Hard"
answer id = i4x-JediAcdmy-LTSB304-problem-7f1b1523a55848cd9f5c93eb8cbabcf7_2_1
answer = "Use the Force"
count = 1138
Since it only grabs things of type "problem", it will not return results for
things like self/peer-assessments. Any Loncapa problem types will show up (so
multiple choice, text input, numeric, etc.)
Instead of crawling the course tree and instantiating the appropriate CapaModule
objects to grab state, this version draws directly from StudentModule. This lets
us skip a lot of processing and most importantly lets us generate the answer
distribution without causing side-effects (since XBlocks auto-save state). It
also lets us take advantage of a read-replica database if one is available, to
minimize locking concerns.
There are minor changes to the legacy dashboard around CSV charset encoding and
a change to OptionResponseXMLFactory to make it more unicode friendly. Answer
distribution output is now also sorted, to group together answers for the same
content piece.
Note that this does not introduce celery into the process. Answer distributions
are still only available for small courses.
This was originally created to fix [LMS-922], but it also addresses [LMS-811] and
possibly other areas in the legacy dashboard where CSV downloads break due to
character encoding issues.
from client. Tasks.py remains the task implementations running on the
celery worker.
In particular, move status message generation out of task thread to client side.
