blackboard_tools

Some scripts and tools I found useful for dealing with blackboard

useful bash scripts

Find missing files:

for d in submissions/*; do if [ ! -r $d/swish.pl ]; then echo "$d doesn't contain swish.pl, but `ls $d`"; fi; done

rename files

mmv "submissions/*/*.pl.pl" "submissions/#1/#2.pl"

Typical workflow

also very useful: https://github.com/hjalti/mossum for analysis

1. ln -s submission_on_time.zip gradebook.zip
2. python blackboard_tools/extract_gradebook.py
3. delete stupid stuff in submissions, e.g. find submissions/ | grep '/devel/' | xargs rm -r -v
4. run moss: find -L submissions -name "*.py" -print0 | xargs -0 moss -l python
5. run mossum: mossum --show-loops -o moss -p 60 -l 30 http://moss.stanford.edu/results/RESPONSECODEHERE/
6. look at output: open moss-1.png
