Assignment creation

Assignment creation documentation.

The assignment is created by a member of the teaching staff and is the basis for students to perform their exercise.

To create an assignment

dojo assignment create --name <unique_name>

Please wait while we verify and retrieve data...
ℹ Checking Dojo session: 
    ✔ The session is valid
        ✔ Teaching staff permissions
ℹ Checking Gitlab token: 
    ✔ Read access
    ✔ Write access
✔ Assignment name "unique_name" is available
Please wait while we are creating the assignment...
✔ Assignment successfully created
    ℹ Name: unique_name
    ℹ Web URL: https://gitedu.hesge.ch/dojo/assignment/unique_name
    ℹ HTTP Repo: https://gitedu.hesge.ch/dojo/assignment/unique_name.git
    ℹ SSH Repo: ssh://git@ssh.hesge.ch:10572/dojo/assignment/unique_name.git

where <unique_name> is the name of the assignment. By default only the creator of the exercise is added to the assignment (which is just a git repository with some configuration files in it). There are several other options that can be provided:

dojo assignment create --name <unique_name> --template <url>

where <url> is the url of the template repository one may want to use as a basis for the assignment-

dojo assignment create --name <unique_name> --members_username <usernames>

where <usernames> is a list of gitedu usernames that will be given the same permissions as the user creating the assignment.

As usual one can show the help menu by typing

dojo assignment create --help

Or you may just enter (--help is implicit in most commands)

dojo assignment create

Clone the repository of the assignment that was just created:

git clone ssh://git@ssh.hesge.ch:10572/dojo/assignment/unique_name.git

Modify the unique_name assignment as you want (modify the Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml files, add a readme, source code, compilation tools, etc.). Commit and push our work (soon™ more details will be provided on how to create assignment).
Once the assignment is done and validated by the pipeline it must be published to be available to students:
