Im quite new to moodle development. Im trying to post activity/notice to a selected course. I could not find any webservice for creating activities within a course. Is there any way i could create a plug-in where i could make a REST call to the plug so that it would create a notice?. An example would help allot.
STEP 1
To create local plugin you can follow following folder structure according to Moodle documentation (https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Local_plugins)-
local/
yourplugin/
db/
access.php
install.php
install.xml
lang/
en/
yourplugin.php
index.php
settings.php
version.php
Meanwhile, creating local plugin does not always really solve all problems as there are limitation depending what you really want to achieve.
what worked for me was editing //moodle_dir/course/modedit.php file, and i was able to make REST Call to add scorm activity to any course i want.

After having a lot of struggles here the fastest guide you'll ever find on how to setup a react native app with mongoDB realm. My thanks go to Joe who commented.
Setup the backend. Follow every step of the backend tutorial very carefully. IMPORTANT: In Step E5, use your own name for the app instead of the default. This name cannot be changed!
Setup your app with git clone --branch final https://github.com/mongodb-university/realm-tutorial-react-native.git. Therby you skip the whole frontend tutorial.
Remove the .git folder and rename the project root to complete your takeover.
Note that this example project contains backend functions and a lot of additional stuff on the frontend. Use those as cheat sheet for your implementations. Note that if you want to implement your backend functions using your IDE instead of in the online admincentral you need to do another import using realm-cli. Happy coding!
I'm interested in using Hot Module Replacement with a newly created React app.
Facebook Incubator's create-react-app uses Webpack 2 which can be configured to support HMR, however in order to do so, one needs to "eject" the create-react-app project.
As the documentation points out, this is a "one way" operation and cannot be reversed.
If I'm to do this, I want to know what I might be giving up. I've been unable to locate any documentation that explains the potential drawbacks of ejecting.
The current configuration allows your project to get updates from create-react-app core team. Once you eject you no longer get this.
It's kind of like pulling in bootstrap css via CDN as opposed to downloading the source code and injecting it directly into your project.
If you want more control over your webpack, there are ways to configure/customize it without ejecting:

I have been studying ATG for about 4 months and now I am facing a problem: even going through the documentation I can't find any document that can clearly explain how I can create a new empty store.
I know that I need to have my database users and schemas, the application server scripts (I'm using weblogic) and the module in Eclipse. But I can't find anywhere how to create a new store, implement it from the beginning and see the result in the browser.
There is no such document for ATG. You either need to start from the Commerce Reference Store and customise that (in versions prior to ATG 11 would would strongly suggest not to use the CRS as your basis for a new site) or you can look at what the CRS executes for the runAssembler command, remove the CRS specific modules from that and then create, and include your own modules for the Storefront and your source code.
There is no empty store you can install and run. You have to build one. Or you can install CRS, which is not empty, but it is relatively straightforward to install and can be customized.
The documentation to follow:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52191_02/CRS.11-1/ATGCRSInstall/ATGCRSInstall.pdf

I've started investigating alternatives to my project and a few questions came out that I couldn't answer by myself.
The problem is: I want to create a web page able to access multiple Magento instances installed in the same server. Currently, I have one Magento instance per client and this project will access several Magneto instances to export reports from each one (for example).
The alternatives I thought til this moment are:
Have another Magento instance, create a new module within it that changes its 'database target' before triggering operations/queries;
Questions until this moment:
Can I 'change the database target' of a Magento instance?
How can I access data from a Magento instance without appeal to SOAP/REST?
I want to re-use some components (grids, tabs, forms..) from Magento, that's why I'm not considering an independent project (Zend, for instance) that can access this code from another projects. Does it make sense?
Any other idea?
==Edited==
Thanks by the tips and sorry by my ignorance. The comments let me believe that I'm able to execute something like this:
// File myScript.php
require '/home/DOMAIN1/app/Mage.php';
Mage::app('default');
// get some products from DOMAIN1
require '/home/DOMAIN2/app/Mage.php';
Mage::app('default');
// get some products from DOMAIN2
Is it right? Can I execute require twice (and override things from first require)?
==Edited2==
I'm still trying to connect to several Magento instances from a single third party file. Is there any tip? I'm facing several/different errors at this moment.
The only thing I know is that I can still rely on SOAP to get the information I need, but this will be expensive.
Thanks!
The easiest way would be to include Mage.php from each shop instance. You would need to use namespaces or some other trickery to be able to load more then one.
Or if that doesn't work - make your own API in a separate file to get what you want from one shop, and combine the results in the PHP-file that calls the API.
Here's a sample on how to use Magento functionality outside of Magento:
require 'app/Mage.php';
if (!Mage::isInstalled()) {
echo "Application is not installed yet, please complete install wizard first.";
exit;
}
Mage::app()->setCurrentStore(Mage_Core_Model_App::ADMIN_STORE_ID);
// your custom code here, for example, get the product model..
$productModel = Mage::getModel('catalog/product');
I want to create a alfresco site using open cmis extension. I researched and found an object type 'F:st:sites' and its properties like 'st:siteVisibility' and 'st:sitePreset'. But I am not very sure that using this we can create a site in alfresco and I am not able to find any method for creating a site. It could be something like
Map<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<String, Object>();
properties.put(PropertyIds.NAME, "mySiteName");
properties.put(PropertyIds.OBJECT_TYPE_ID, "F:st:sites");
properties.put("cmis:path", "/Sites");
.
.
properties.put("cmis:createdBy", date);
properties.put("st:siteVisibility", ScriptSiteService.PUBLIC_SITE);
// TODO: add method for creating site with session object
Please reply as soon as possible.
Also, if there is any other way to create a site other than apache's Http api, Please share.
Thanks,
Smita
as long as you don't post your use case, yourfull code & explain in in detail what tools you're using (Apache Chemistry/opencmis? apache's Http api?) you won't get the answer you like to get...
A Site is sth. like a extended folder & there will be an opportunity to create such a folder by using st:site type & adding the relevant properties, BUT:
afaik you won't be able to use this site via Alfresco Share because all SURF objects are not created if you create a site directly in the repo layer (explained here (but a little bit outdated if you use Alfresco 4): http://ecmstuff.blogspot.de/2011/02/creating-alfresco-share-sites-with.html).
