LMS 4 Labs - Moodle Block

The idea behind the Moodle block is to give an entry point for Moodle classes to be able to use Remote Labs from their classes.

Block Functions & API

Courses

The installation will setup a lists.php function that will be queried from the RLMS to give permission to specific courses to specific labs.

This will respond with the following JSON:

• start: The start index of the list. An integer.
• number: The total number of courses. An integer.
• per-page: The number of courses per page on each response. Integer
• courses: An array of Courses objects. Each course object will have an id which is the ID of the course in the Moodle database, and a name which is the name of the course in the Moodle DB.

Here is an example of a response:

start: 4,
number: 50,
per-page: 10,
courses: [
  {id: 3, name: 'Informática para máquinas'},
  {id: 4, name: 'Información sobre lo que siempre quisiste saber sin saber.'}
]
