Class: gradingform_controller - X-Ref
Class represents a grading form definition used in a particular areaGeneral data about definition is stored in the standard DB table
grading_definitions. A separate entry is created for each grading area
(i.e. for each module). Plugins may define and use additional tables
to store additional data about definitions.
Advanced grading plugins must declare a class gradingform_xxxx_controller
extending this class and put it in lib.php in the plugin folder.
See {@link gradingform_rubric_controller} as an example
Except for overwriting abstract functions, plugin developers may want
to overwrite functions responsible for loading and saving of the
definition to include additional data stored.

The returned chunks will be joined with other conditions using the OR operator. param: string $token token to search for return: array |
| load_definition() X-Ref |
| Loads the form definition if it exists The default implementation just tries to load the record from the {grading_definitions} table. The plugins are likely to override this with a more complex query that loads all required data at once. |
| get_method_name() X-Ref |

| set_grade_range(array $graderange, $allowgradedecimals = false) X-Ref |
| Sets the range of grades used in this area. This is usually either range like 0-100 or the scale where keys start from 1. Typically modules will call it: $controller->set_grade_range(make_grades_menu($gradingtype), $gradingtype > 0); Negative $gradingtype means that scale is used and the grade must be rounded to the nearest int. Positive $gradingtype means that range 0..$gradingtype is used for the grades and in this case grade does not have to be rounded. Sometimes modules always expect grade to be rounded (like mod_assign does). param: array $graderange array where first _key_ is the minimum grade and the param: bool $allowgradedecimals if decimal values are allowed as grades. |
| get_grade_range() X-Ref |
| Returns the range of grades used in this area return: array |
| get_allow_grade_decimals() X-Ref |
| Returns if decimal values are allowed as grades return: bool |
| get_external_definition_details() X-Ref |
| Overridden by sub classes that wish to make definition details available to web services. When not overridden, only definition data common to all grading methods is made available. When overriding, the return value should be an array containing one or more key/value pairs. These key/value pairs should match the definition returned by the get_definition() function. For examples, look at: $gradingform_rubric_controller->get_external_definition_details() $gradingform_guide_controller->get_external_definition_details() return: array An array of one or more key/value pairs containing the external_multiple_structure/s |
| get_external_instance_filling_details() X-Ref |
| Overridden by sub classes that wish to make instance filling details available to web services. When not overridden, only instance filling data common to all grading methods is made available. When overriding, the return value should be an array containing one or more key/value pairs. These key/value pairs should match the filling data returned by the get_<method>_filling() function in the gradingform_instance subclass. For examples, look at: $gradingform_rubric_controller->get_external_instance_filling_details() $gradingform_guide_controller->get_external_instance_filling_details() return: array An array of one or more key/value pairs containing the external_multiple_structure/s |
Class: gradingform_instance - X-Ref
Class to manage one gradingform instance.Gradingform instance is created for each evaluation of a student, using advanced grading.
It is stored as an entry in the DB table gradingform_instance.
One instance (usually the latest) has the status INSTANCE_STATUS_ACTIVE. Sometimes it may
happen that a teacher wants to change the definition when some students have already been
graded. In this case their instances change status to INSTANCE_STATUS_NEEDUPDATE.
To support future use of AJAX for background saving of incomplete evaluations the
status INSTANCE_STATUS_INCOMPLETE is introduced. If 'Cancel' is pressed this entry
is deleted.
When grade is updated the previous active instance receives status INSTANCE_STATUS_ACTIVE.
Advanced grading plugins must declare a class gradingform_xxxx_instance
extending this class and put it in lib.php in the plugin folder.
The reference to an instance of this class is passed to an advanced grading form element
included in the grading form, so this class must implement functions for rendering
and validation of this form element. See {@link MoodleQuickForm_grading}
| __construct($controller, $data) X-Ref |
| Creates an instance param: gradingform_controller $controller param: stdClass $data |
| create_new($definitionid, $raterid, $itemid) X-Ref |
| Creates a new empty instance in DB and mark its status as INCOMPLETE param: int $definitionid param: int $raterid param: int $itemid return: int id of the created instance |
| copy($raterid, $itemid) X-Ref |
| Duplicates the instance before editing (optionally substitutes raterid and/or itemid with the specified values) Plugins may want to override this function to copy data from additional tables as well param: int $raterid value for raterid in the duplicate param: int $itemid value for itemid in the duplicate return: int id of the new instance |
| get_current_instance() X-Ref |
| Returns the current (active or needupdate) instance for the same raterid and itemid as this instance. This function is useful to find the status of the currently modified instance return: gradingform_instance |
| get_controller() X-Ref |
| Returns the controller return: gradingform_controller |
| get_data($key) X-Ref |
| Returns the specified element from object $this->data param: string $key return: mixed |
| get_id() X-Ref |
| Returns instance id return: int |
| get_status() X-Ref |
| Returns instance status return: int |
| make_active() X-Ref |
| Marks the instance as ACTIVE and current active instance (if exists) as ARCHIVE |
| cancel() X-Ref |
| Deletes this (INCOMPLETE) instance from database. This function is invoked on cancelling the grading form and/or during cron cleanup. Plugins using additional tables must override this method to remove additional data. Note that if the teacher just closes the window or presses 'Back' button of the browser, this function is not invoked. |
| update($elementvalue) X-Ref |
| Updates the instance with the data received from grading form. This function may be called via AJAX when grading is not yet completed, so it does not change the status of the instance. param: array $elementvalue |
| is_empty_form($elementvalue) X-Ref |
| Determines whether the submitted form was empty. param: array $elementvalue value of element submitted from the form return: boolean true if the form is empty |
| clear_attempt($data) X-Ref |
| Removes the attempt from the gradingform_*_fillings table. This function is not abstract as to not break plugins that might use advanced grading. param: array $data the attempt data |
| submit_and_get_grade($elementvalue, $itemid) X-Ref |
| Called when teacher submits the grading form: updates the instance in DB, marks it as ACTIVE and returns the grade to be pushed to the gradebook. $itemid must be specified here (it was not required when the instance was created, because it might not existed in draft) param: array $elementvalue param: int $itemid return: int the grade on 0-100 scale |
| validate_grading_element($elementvalue) X-Ref |
| Server-side validation of the data received from grading form. param: mixed $elementvalue is the scalar or array received in $_POST return: boolean true if the form data is validated and contains no errors |
| default_validation_error_message() X-Ref |
| Returns the error message displayed if validation failed. If plugin wants to display custom message, the empty string should be returned here and the custom message should be output in render_grading_element() Please note that in assignments grading in 2.2 the grading form is not validated properly and this message is not being displayed. return: string |
