Adaptive course authoring platform.

• Node.js (>= 8.8.0)
• npm (>= 5.4.2)
• PostgreSQL (>= 9.6)

• Node.js & npm: https://nodejs.org/en/download/
• PostgreSQL: https://www.postgresql.org/download/
• Clone this repo

• Run npm install in the repo directory
• Create database in PostgreSQL
• App is configured via environment variables contained in a file named .env. Use the .env.example file as a template: cp .env.example .env and enter configuration details.
• You can init the db (for development) by setting ENABLE_DEFAULT_SCHEMA=1 and running npm run db:seed.
• You can create admin user by running npm run add:admin <email> <password>
• App branding is configured via values set in a file named .brand-rc.json. Use the .brand-rc.json.example file as a template: cp .brand-rc.json.example .brand-rc.json and enter configuration details.

• Server: npm run dev:server
• Client (webpack dev server): npm run dev:client

• Bundle client by issuing npm run build
• npm run start

Repository stucture can be altered through .activities-rc.json file. Use the .activities-rc.json.example file as a template: cp .activities-rc.json.example .activities-rc.json and enter configuration details. It's also possible to use .activities-rc.js, by using module.exports to export the structure. By default, the file is searched for in the root of the project. If a custom location or a custom name is needed, it can be provided through the activitiesConfig param to any of the build scripts (without the extension), for example: npm run dev:client -- --activitiesConfig=server/.custom-activities-rc

• contentContainers Array<ContentContainer> - Array of content container configs

Configuration for schema structure nodes (activities). Contains the following properties:

• level Number - The hierarchy level for that particular activity type.
• type String - Const for marking activity type.
• subLevels Array<String> - An array of sub-types.
• label String - Display label.
• color String - Display color in hexadecimal notation.
• contentContainers Array<String> - Array of content container types that define which content containers can be added.
• hasAssessments Boolean - Activity allows adding assessments activities to it.
• hasExams Boolean - Activity allows adding exam activities to it.
• exams Object - Configuration for activity exams.
• relationships Array<Relationship> - Defines what relationships this activity has to other activities.

Defines the structure of an activity realtionship field.

• type String - Defines the name of the relationship. The relationship will be published under this value.
• label String - Display label.

• allowEmpty Boolean - Defines if the member list can be empty. True by default.
• allowCircularLinks Boolean - Defines if member of a relationship instance can set the owner of that instance as a member of its own instance of that relationship. Example, activity X sets activity Y as its prerequisite. If allowCircualLinks is set to true then activity Y can set activity X as its prerequisite. False by default.
• allowInsideLineage Boolean - Defines if an ancestor or a descendant can be a member of the relationship. False by default.

Defines the structure of an activity metadata field.
