Open edX安装Xblock

原文出处：http://wiki.edustack.org/

Like all platform settings, you can either write inside

/edx/app/edx_ansible/server-vars.yml

and
update the platform to generate the custom settings files.

EDXAPP_FEATURES:
ALLOW_ALL_ADVANCED_COMPONENTS: true

Or you can manually edit the custom settings, in

/edx/app/edxapp/cms.env.json

.

This will override the default value hardcoded in

/edx/app/edxapp/edx-platform/cms/envs/common.py

.

Once the file is updated, you need to reboot to reload the settings.

sudo /edx/bin/supervisorctl -c /edx/etc/supervisord.conf restart edxapp:

Install an XBlock

To install a XBlock, you must download it, and then run the install script.

# Move to the folder where you want to download the XBlock
cd /edx/app/edxapp
# Download the XBlock
sudo -u edxapp git clone https://github.com/xxx/yourXBlock.git # If not installed: Install the XBlock
sudo -u edxapp /edx/bin/pip.edxapp install yourXBlock/
# Remove the installation files
sudo rm -r yourXBlock

Reboot if something isn't right

In some cases, rebooting is necessary to use the XBlock.

sudo /edx/bin/supervisorctl -c /edx/etc/supervisord.conf restart edxapp:

Activate the XBlock in your course

Go to

Settings -> Advanced Settings

and set

advanced_modules

to

["xblockname"]

.

Use the XBlock in a unit

Select

in your unit.
