balor | Is schootool on Gutsy simply broken (I get a failed depend on python2.4-schoolbell)? | 12:30 |
---|---|---|
mgedmin | could be | 12:39 |
mgedmin | the packaged version is ancient | 12:39 |
Fujitsu | balor: Yes, it is broken in Ubuntu Feisty and Gutsy. | 12:40 |
Fujitsu | We were promised a new version for Gutsy... but... | 12:40 |
balor | Fujitsu: is there an ETA on fixing it? | 12:40 |
mgedmin | we vere promised a zope 3.4 release before gutsy, but... :( | 12:40 |
Fujitsu | We would have probably removed it from the archive if we knew there wasn't going to be a new release. | 12:40 |
Fujitsu | balor: In Gutsy? Probably never. | 12:40 |
Fujitsu | Maybe for Hardy. | 12:40 |
Fujitsu | mgedmin: Isn't 3.4 never going to release, though? | 12:41 |
mgedmin | I've no idea | 12:41 |
mgedmin | the zope 3 world is in the middle of the egg revolution and nothing is settled | 12:41 |
balor | Fujitsu: I have a student working on some plug-ins for Schooltool. Should I tell them simply to work on the main branch from launchpad? | 12:41 |
balor | Fujitsu: or is there a better "main" source? | 12:42 |
Fujitsu | balor: The main svn branch is better, but I have minimal dealings with SchoolTool. I'm more an Ubuntu person, though I have attacked bits of schooltool a couple of times. | 12:43 |
balor | Fujitsu: thanks. Is that on Launchpad? | 12:43 |
balor | I just cant find the SVN source on the homepage | 12:44 |
balor | source.st.org | 12:44 |
Fujitsu | balor: It will be mirrored on Launchpad as a bzr branch, but I think the original is on source.schooltool.org. | 12:44 |
Fujitsu | Yeah. | 12:44 |
balor | Fujitsu: many thanks | 12:44 |
Fujitsu | No problem, hopefully I was helpful. | 12:44 |

Lumiere | balor: here still? | 15:25 |
balor | Lumiere: yeah | 15:25 |
Lumiere | http://www.schooltool.org/weblog/archive/2007/07/20/new-test-packages-for-ubuntu-feisty | 15:26 |
Lumiere | I would assume those could work | 15:26 |
balor | thanks | 15:27 |
Lumiere | but using a trunk svn and making a bzr branch of the plugins may be the best way to go long term | 15:28 |
Lumiere | if you plan on continuing development | 15:28 |
ignas | someone wants to develop a new schooltool "plugin" or rather a "configuration" ? | 15:28 |
Lumiere | 05:10:42 < balor> Fujitsu: I have a student working on some plug-ins for Schooltool. Should I tell them simply to work on the main branch from launchpad? | 15:31 |
ignas | main branch being schooltool's main branch? | 15:31 |
ignas | and what kinds of plugins are they? | 15:31 |
balor | ignas: rollbook stuff | 15:33 |
ignas | rollbook? | 15:33 |
balor | ignas: rollbook as in whether students are in or out of class | 15:34 |
ignas | so your plugin has it's own persistent objects and stuff, but is still meant to be added to an existing school | 15:35 |
ignas | or is it a part of CanDo? | 15:35 |
balor | ignas: probably part of CanDO | 15:54 |
balor | ignas: It's a student project, I'm the lecturer. So I want them to figure out the solution themselves | 15:55 |
ignas | i see :) | 15:55 |
ignas | a bit cruel knowing that there is no defined way of doing schooltool/Cando plugins | 15:56 |
balor | ignas: Is there a concept of a list of students in a class in SchoolTool? | 15:56 |
ignas | what are you calling a class? | 15:57 |
ignas | a section meeting? | 15:57 |
balor | ignas: I'm imagining ST as an administrative tool for teachers (I may have this all wrong) and that there would be a list of students in their class on the ST system. | 15:57 |
ignas | what are you calling a class? | 15:58 |
balor | ignas: I want the student to extend ST so that the teacher can use it as an electronic roll book | 15:58 |
balor | ignas: Excuse my Irish educational system :) class == form == assignment of students to a teacher for a subject | 15:58 |
ignas | on one hand - there is attendance module in schooltool for what it's worth, just that it's not turned on by default | 15:59 |
ignas | the thing you are calling a class | 15:59 |
ignas | in schooltool is called a section | 15:59 |
ignas | so yes - there is a list of students in a section | 15:59 |
balor | excellent | 15:59 |
balor | I actually don't want them to write the attendance module, just make it a web-service and write a fat-client attendance GUI. | 16:00 |
balor | But that's just me :) | 16:00 |
ignas | oh | 16:00 |
balor | But if the attendance module needs to be extended, they'll have to do it. | 16:01 |
ignas | are you using REST for communication with schooltool then | 16:02 |
ignas | i mean it would be more appropriate for a fat-client GUI | 16:02 |
ignas | localhost:7001/sections/section_id/relationships/ (if you turn it on in the schooltool.conf) | 16:04 |
balor | ignas: that's the idea | 16:04 |
ignas | oh | 16:04 |
ignas | i see | 16:04 |
ignas | i assumed that you are trying to write a new schooltool module | 16:04 |
balor | I didn't know that REST was built in by default though | 16:04 |
ignas | well - you must enable it in schooltool.conf | 16:04 |
balor | ignas: I'm not used to the school tool development language. So I just use the term "module" generically. | 16:05 |
ignas | if using trunk checkout or a tarball it will be on a different port | 16:05 |
ignas | in buildout configuration it moved to localhost:7080/api/ ... | 16:05 |
* ignas just realized that balor is Ireland related nickname :) | 16:07 | |
balor | yeah | 17:01 |
balor | got to go...late for class | 17:02 |
