Development History

How to Install

1. Get the following packages from branch oacs-5-4: dotlrn-all, xowiki, xotcl-core, views
2. Get the following packages from HEAD: learning-content, learning-content-portlet, dotlrn-learning-content, ajaxhelper
3. Move to the content package folder and run the script.sh, this will patch all the files from other packages to integrate them with content new features
   1. To run the script:
      • /$path_to_content_patch/$  sh script.sh
        
4. Install dotlrn, then install xowiki, xotcl-core, learn-content, learn-content-portlet, dotlrn-learn-content, ajaxhelper and views
   
5. Restart the server
6. Activate the applet in a course
   

Release Notes

• Provides a simple interface to create web pages and easily include and manipulate web assets such as flash, videos, images, etc.
  
• Provides a web template, easy to manage, similar to a PPT template but with built in navigation (sequential navigation, tab based organization, sub tabs supported and per unit / module navigation).
• Folder, subfolders, pages ordering.
• Free of "standards" approaches, so professors with basic word knowledge can use it.
• Auto scroll (focus navigation on the content area).
  
• It provides portlets for .LRN

• The package is an OO extension of xowiki, leaves xowiki package unmodified
• Glossary tool, a plugin for xinha to add words to the glossary during the content edition, an admin page to manage all words and definitions, dynamic popup with the word definition inside the content
  
• Integration with other dotlrn resources, a new interface to link resources from the course to the content pages, this allows the content tool to be the reference of a course like SCORM
• User tracking, reports about all the content pages and all the users views, visits by page and visits by user
• Header for the content, show/hide a specific title for the course on top of each page of the content
  
• An admin section of the content for teachers, the xowiki's inherited admin section is only for swa
  
• Automatic copy of the content to other classes/communities inside dotlrn
• Split up the automatic template in sections to be easily changed (by developers/designers)
  

1. A new parameter called page_instance_id needs to be added to the ad_page_contract
2. The following callback should be added in a place where the form can be extended
   • callback -catch -impl content learning_content::extend_form -name $form_name -page_instance_id $page_instance_id
3. The following callback should be added in the submit section of the form after the object has been created
   
   • callback -catch -impl content learning_content::insert_object -name $object_name -item_id $page_instance_id -activity_id $object_id
4. The activity should be added to the activity-new and get-activities pages in the learning-content package, check out the existing activities sections to figure out the right way to include

Install OpenACS on Mac OS X 10.5 / 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Using Macports

Created by Malte Sussdorff, last modified by Gustaf Neumann 03 Nov 2011, at 02:26 PM

I worked off the work of Dave Bauer and used Macports.

Unfortunately, the default configuration of Mac OS X does not allow suitable amounts of shared memory to be created to run the database server. 

Therefore you should edit your /etc/sysctl.conf

On a MacBook Pro with 2GB of RAM, the author's sysctl.conf contains:

Download and install MacPorts from http://www.macports.org/install.php and get the latest version (1.7.1 as of 2009-04-18)

Install PostgreSQL 8.4

sudo port -k install postgresql84
cd `port work postgresql84`/postgresql-8.4.7/contrib/ltree
make all
sudo make install
sudo port install postgresql84-server

To create a database instance, after install do
sudo mkdir -p /opt/local/var/db/postgresql84/defaultdb
sudo chown postgres:postgres /opt/local/var/db/postgresql84/defaultdb
sudo su postgres -c '/opt/local/lib/postgresql84/bin/initdb -D /opt/local/var/db/postgresql84/defaultdb'

Then after initdb postgres says to start postgresql. Before that edit the config file to make it compatible with ACS

sudo emacs -nw /opt/local/var/db/postgresql84/defaultdb/postgresql.conf

autovacuum = on
add_missing_from = on
default_with_oids = on
regex_flavor = extended 

Now start the PostgreSQL Server 

sudo su postgres -c  '/opt/local/lib/postgresql84/bin/postgres -D /opt/local/var/db/postgresql84/defaultdb' &

Install plpgsql as a language

/opt/local/lib/postgresql84/bin/createlang plpgsql template1 -U postgres

Last but not least, put postgresql under launchctl so you can start and stop it: 

sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.postgresql84-server.plist 

To start it from then on just call

sudo launchctl start org.macports.postgresql84-server

To stop it:

sudo launchctl stop org.macports.postgresql84-server

Install AOLserver 4.5

sudo port install tcl +threads +headers

This will install Tcl with threads enabled, which is needed for AOLserver.

sudo port install aolserver

    cd /usr/local/src
    mkdir aolserver 
    cd aolserver 
    TCLLIB=1.13
    XOTCL=1.6.7
    # Path for the AOLserver installation 
    NS=/opt/local/aolserver
    cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@aolserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/aolserver co nssha1 
    cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@aolserver.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/aolserver co nspostgres
    echo "Getting TDOM ..." 
    git clone git://github.com/tDOM/tdom.git
    echo "Getting TCL modules ..." 
    curl -L -O http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tcllib/tcllib-${TCLLIB}.tar.bz2 
    curl -L -O http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/thread2.6.5.tar.gz 
    curl -L -O http://media.wu-wien.ac.at/download/xotcl-${XOTCL}.tar.gz

Now install nssha1

 
    cd nssha1
    sudo make install NSHOME=${NS} 
    cd ..

Now go for nspostgres

 
    cd nspostgres/

    # Edit the Makefile so it reads (adding the "-lnsdb")
    MODLIBS = -L$(PGLIB) -lpq -lnsdb
    
    sudo make install AOLSERVER=/opt/local/aolserver/ PGCONFIG=/opt/local/lib/postgresql84/bin/pg_config POSTGRES=/opt/local PGINC=/opt/local/include/postgresql84/ PGLIB=/opt/local/lib/postgresql84/ ACS=1
    cd ..

tDOM

 
    cd tDOM-0.8.2/unix
    ../configure    --mandir=/usr/local/share/man    --libdir=/opt/local/aolserver/lib    --with-tcl=/opt/local/lib   --with-aolserver=/opt/local/aolserver
    sudo make install 
    cd ../..

Thread

 
    tar xvfz thread2.6.5.tar.gz 
    cd thread2.6.5/unix 
    ../configure    --mandir=/usr/local/share/man    --libdir=/Library/Tcl    --with-tcl=/System/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework    --with-tclinclude=/System/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Headers    --with-aolserver=/opt/local/aolserver 
    sudo make install
    cd ../..

XOTcl

The private header files of Tcl are missing, therefore I got the source and recompiled Tcl:

  curl -L -O http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/tcl8.5.9-src.tar.gz
  tar xfz tcl8.5.9-src.tar.gz
  cd tcl8.5.9/unix
  ./configure --enable-threads --prefix=/opt/local --disable-corefoundation 
  sudo make install
  cd ../..

  tar xvfz xotcl-1.6.7.tar.gz 
  cd xotcl-1.6.7
  NS=/opt/local/aolserver/ 
  ./configure --enable-threads --enable-symbols --prefix=${NS} --exec-prefix=${NS} --with-tcl=/opt/local/lib
  sudo make install-aol
  cd .. 

Now we finish off with tcllib

 
  tar xvfj tcllib-1.13.tar.bz2 
  cd tcllib-1.13
  ./configure --prefix=/opt/local/aolserver/ 
  sudo make install

  ulimit -n 256

# Change the server root
set serverroot                "~/Sites/${server}"

# Make sure that OpenACS finds PostgreSQL. Add two lines to the $database if statement

if { $database eq "oracle" } {
    set db_password           "mysitepassword"
} else {
    set db_host               localhost
    set db_port               ""
    set db_user               $server
    ns_section "ns/db/driver/postgres"
    ns_param   pgbin              /opt/local/lib/postgresql84/bin/
}

# Change the AOLserver location
set homedir                   /opt/local/aolserver

Now you can start up your server. First try ist with /opt/local/aolserver/bin/nsd -t ~/Sites/yourserver/etc/config.tcl. If this works you might want to create a launchctl entry as you did above for postgresql

Edit /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openacs.YOURSERVER.plist and enter the following

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
        <key>Label</key>
        <string>org.openacs.YOURSERVER</string>
        <key>OnDemand</key>
        <false/>
        <key>ProgramArguments</key>
        <array>
            <string>/Users/youruser/Sites/yourserver/etc/daemontools/run</string>
        </array>
        <key>ServiceDescription</key>
        <string>OpenACS Service</string>
        <key>UserName</key>
        <string>youruser</string>
        <key>GroupName</key>
        <string>staff</string>
    </dict>
</plist>

Now put yourserver under launchctl so you can start and stop it: 

sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openacs.yourserver.plist 

To start it from then on just call

sudo launchctl start org.openacs.yourserver

To stop it:

sudo launchctl stop org.openacs.yourserver 

It is a good idea to schedule regular backups for your server(s). To do this create a shell script, e.g. backup.sh which executes your backups and then create a launchdaemon plist to run your backups nightly

Edit /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openacs.backup.plist and enter the following

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
        <key>Label</key>
        <string>org.openacs.backup</string>
        <key>ProgramArguments</key>
        <array>
        <string>/Users/youruser/Sites/backup.sh</string>
        </array>
        <key>LowPriorityIO</key>
                <true/>
                <key>Nice</key>
                <integer>1</integer>
                <key>StartCalendarInterval</key>
                <dict>
                        <key>Hour</key>
                        <integer>3</integer>
                        <key>Minute</key>
                        <integer>15</integer>
                </dict>
    </dict>
</plist>

If you intend to run AOLserver on a continous basis remember that it is a great idea to make sure it responds properly. To do this you can run a keepalive service.

Edit /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openacs.keepalive.plist and enter the following

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

        <key>Label</key>
        <string>org.openacs.keepalive.plist</string>
        <key>ProgramArguments</key>
        <array>
            <string>/Users/youruser/Sites/keepalive.sh</string>
	    <string>yourserver</string>
            <string>yourport</string>
        </array>
        <key>RunAtLoad</key>
        <true/>
        <key>StartInterval</key>
        <integer>180</integer>
</dict>
</plist>

#!/bin/bash 
GREP=/usr/bin/grep

/bin/launchctl start org.openacs.$INSTANCE
}

_sendmail ()
{

}

while [ 1 -eq 1 ];
do
        [ -f ${WGET_FILE} ] && /bin/rm -f ${WGET_FILE}
        /usr/bin/curl -s -o $WGET_FILE --connect-timeout 3 --retry 3 "${URL_TEST}"

        if [ -f ${WGET_FILE} ] 
                then
                FIRST_LINE=`${HEAD} ${WGET_FILE} | ${GREP} -i "success"`
                [ -z "${FIRST_LINE}" ] && _restartwebserver && _sendmail "I just restarted the $INSTANCE webserver on `uname -n`" && echo "`date +'%D-%H:%M'` :: FAILURE" || echo "`date +'%D-%H:%M'` :: success $INSTANCE" >>/Users/malte/Sites/keepalive.log 
                else
                _restartwebserver && _sendmail "I just restarted the $INSTANCE webserver on `uname -n`"
#               _restartwebserver
                echo "`date +'%D-%H:%M'` :: FAILURE"
        fi
done

If you intend to run AOLserver on a continous basis remember that it is a great idea to restart your server once per night, otherwise the memory footprint will grow and grow and grow.

Edit /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openacs.restart.plist and enter the following

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Testing with TCLWebtest

Created by OpenACS community, last modified by Ryan Gallimore 10 Apr 2010, at 06:49 PM

Testing with TCLWebtest

by Simon Carstensen and Joel Aufrecht

Tclwebtest is primarily for testing user interface and acceptance testing.

API testing is only part of testing your package - it doesn't test the code in our adp/tcl pairs. For this, we can use TCLWebtest (see sourceforge). TCLWebtest provides a library of functions (see command reference) that make it easy to call a page through HTTP, examine the results, and drive forms. TCLwebtest's functions overlap slightly with acs-automated-testing; see the example provided for one approach on integrating them.

TCLWebtest must be installed for to work. Since automated testing uses it, it should be part of every OpenACS installation. Note that TCLwebtest is installed automatically by Malte's install script.

Forum Posts:

• Speeding up TclWebtest
• ACS Automated Testing Primer
  

Command Reference:

• http://tclwebtest.sourceforge.net/doc/api_public.html 

Articles:

• Automated Testing Best Practices see: https://openacs.org/doc/automated-testing-best-practices.html
  
• testing packages for release en:Package_Testing_Process_
  

Tools:

• Webtest-Recorder Firefox extension (TwtR) see http://www.km.co.at/km/twtr This module is a plugin for Firefox. It is used to generate/edit a tclwebtest script which can be used later for regression testing without the need of a browser. There is a certain overlap of the application range between selenium and TwtR. This plugin was developed by Åsmund Realfsen for regression/load testing of the assessment module.

Here are some guidelines on how to write automated tests with TCLWebtest. It is a joy to work with automated testing once you get the hang of it. We will use the "myfirstpackage" as an example.

Create the directory that will contain the test script and edit the script file. The directory location and file name are standards which are recognized by the automated testing package:

[$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME www]$ mkdir /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages/myfirstpackage/tcl/test
[$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME www]$ cd /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/packages/myfirstpackage/tcl/test

[$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME test]$ emacs myfirstpackages-procs.tcl

Write the tests. This is obviously the big step :) The script should first call ad_library like any normal -procs.tcl file:

ad_library {
    ...
}

To create a test case you call aa_register_case test_case_name.. Once you've created the test case you start writing the needed logic. We'll use the tutorial package, "myfirstpackage," as an example. Let's say you just wrote an API for adding and deleting notes in the notes packages and wanted to test that. You'd probably want to write a test that first creates a note, then verifies that it was inserted, then perhaps deletes it again, and finally verifies that it is gone.

Naturally this means you'll be adding a lot of bogus data to the database, which you're not really interested in having there. To avoid this I usually do two things. I always put all my test code inside a call to aa_run_with_teardown which basically means that all the inserts, deletes, and updates will be rolled back once the test has been executed. A very useful feature. Instead of inserting bogus data like: set name "Simon", I tend to generate a random script in order avoid inserting a value that's already in the database:

set name [ad_generate_random_string]

Here's how the test case looks so far:

aa_register_case mfp_basic_test {
    My test
} {
    aa_run_with_teardown \
       -rollback \
       -test_code  {

       }
}

Now look at the actual test code. That's the code that goes inside -test_code {}. We want to implement test case API-001, "Given an object id from API-001, invoke mfp::note::get. Proc should return the specific word in the title."

      set name [ad_generate_random_string]
      set new_id [mfp::note::add -title $name]
      aa_true "Note add succeeded" [exists_and_not_null new_id]

To test our simple case, we must load the test file into the system (just as with the /tcl file in the basic tutorial, since the file didn't exist when the system started, the system doesn't know about it.) To make this file take effect, go to the APM and choose "Reload changed" for "MyFirstPackage". Since we'll be changing it frequently, select "watch this file" on the next page. This will cause the system to check this file every time any page is requested, which is bad for production systems but convenient for developing. We can also add some aa_register_case flags to make it easier to run the test. The -procs flag, which indicates which procs are tested by this test case, makes it easier to find procs in your package that aren't tested at all. The -cats flag, setting categories, makes it easier to control which tests to run. The smoke test setting means that this is a basic test case that can and should be run any time you are doing any test. (a definition of "smoke test")

Once the file is loaded, go to ACS Automated Testing and click on myfirstpackage. You should see your test case. Run it and examine the results.

Example

Now we can add the rest of the API tests, including a test with deliberately bad data. The complete test looks like:

ad_library {
    Test cases for my first package.
}

aa_register_case \
    -cats {smoke api} \
    -procs {mfp::note::add mfp::note::get mfp::note::delete} \
    mfp_basic_test \
    {
        A simple test that adds, retrieves, and deletes a record.
    } {
        aa_run_with_teardown \
            -rollback \
            -test_code  {
                set name [ad_generate_random_string]
                set new_id [mfp::note::add -title $name]
                aa_true "Note add succeeded" [exists_and_not_null new_id]
                
                mfp::note::get -item_id $new_id -array note_array
                aa_true "Note contains correct title" [string equal $note_array(title) $name]
                
                mfp::note::delete -item_id $new_id
                
                set get_again [catch {mfp::note::get -item_id $new_id -array note_array}]
                aa_false "After deleting a note, retrieving it fails" [expr $get_again == 0]
            }
    }

aa_register_case \
    -cats {api} \
    -procs {mfp::note::add mfp::note::get mfp::note::delete} \
    mfp_bad_data_test \
    {
        A simple test that adds, retrieves, and deletes a record, using some tricky data.
    } {
        aa_run_with_teardown \
            -rollback \
            -test_code  {
                set name {-Bad [BAD] \077 { $Bad}} 
                append name [ad_generate_random_string]
                set new_id [mfp::note::add -title $name]
                aa_true "Note add succeeded" [exists_and_not_null new_id]
                
                mfp::note::get -item_id $new_id -array note_array
                aa_true "Note contains correct title" [string equal $note_array(title) $name]
                aa_log "Title is $name"
