Early notes and thoughts by Kyle McCormick Dave Ormsbee (Axim)

2024-11-20

  • Sumac

    • Learning Core is getting rolled out to prod for the first time

    • LC Components, Collections, Assets for Libraries v2

  • Teak

    • LC Units, Sections in Subsections for Libraries v2

    • Migration path for Libraries v1->v2

  • Ulmo

    • Remove Libraries v1

    • Standalone assets (files and uploads) for Libraries v2

    • Standalone assets (files and uploads) for Courses

      • LearningPackage for each course

      • LearingCoreContentstore

      • Slow, major migration (~1TB for 2U?)

      • Rollout questions… all-at-once, or mixed mode?

  • Verawood

    • LC Components for Libraries

      • Components with children?

        • Some in edx-platform

          • a/b test, randomize, etc

          • Each of these is a Selector

            • Selected content is a Variant (some list of PubEnts)

            • selector.get_or_create_variant_for_user(args) -> Variant

            • Is this a generalization of learning_sequences?

            • Kinda but not really. LSeqs is built as a pipeline of processors which can hide or remove content. Intersection of the resulting sets is the users' outline

        • Some outside? Do we support? Or deprecate customization of get_children ?

          • Do not break callers of get_children

          • Do deprecate the ability to customize it, though

          • End result is that get_children is the responsibility of the runtime / edx-platform:

          • Code Block
            class XBlock:
   def get_children(...):
       yield from self.runtime.get_children(self.usage_key)

      • Ideas

        • Just migrate leaf components

          • get_item(leaf_block) → LC
            get_item(parent_block) → splitmongo

        • Implement Unit and below at LC level

        • Thing to watch out for: how to juggle the two different runtimes used for field data persistence.

  • Misc

    • Eventually

      • Leaf blocks can define views with arbitrary python

      • Parent blocks (containers?) are declarative, an external system looks at the rules they declare to determine the course tree
