Grading environment with specific Python version in path.

Includes following extra packages:

• Python grader-utils
• Pytest

Tags

Images are tagged with Python and grading-base versions in format <Python>-<grading-base>. Version tag can also include uN meaning update N where N is an increasing number. The update part is used to indicate updates to the image, where software versions did not change. For an example, 3.5-2.0u1 includes Python 3.5 on top of grading-base 2.0 and has one update after first release. Newer tags include the version of Python grader-utils in the middle of the tag. For example, 3.7-3.3-3.1 includes Python 3.7 and Python grader-utils 3.3 on top of grading-base 3.1.

There is also few additional versions of the image:

• math-* includes Python packages matplotlib, scipy, numpy and bokeh on top of the base and in addition, openpyxl, xlrd and xlwt for Excel file parsing
• ml-* includes Python packages pandas, scikit-learn and numpy on top of the math layer
• jupyter-* includes Python packages nbconvert and ipython on top of the ml layer
• rdf-* includes Python package rdflib on top of the base
• xls-* includes Python packages xlrd and xlwt on top of the base for parsing Excel files
• ply-* includes the Python package PLY (parser and lexer generator)
• smt-* includes pysmt and dd on top of the ply layer
• y2-* (for the Basic Course in Programming Y2 course) includes Python packages pyqt6, coverage, networkx and pyvirtualdisplay on top of the base
• mec-* (for the Mechatronic Machine Design course) includes Python packages requests, bs4 and validators on top of the math layer
• psql-* includes PostgreSQL server and the Python package psycopg2
• comp-* (for the Competitive Programming course) includes Python packages requests, bs4, pandas, lxml and html5lib on top of the base

Utility commands

In addition to grading-base, this container provides following utilities.

• graderutils [--use-iotester] [--use-rpyc] [--novalidate] [--container] [--show-config] [--develop-mode] [--exercise-path <absolute-path>] -- [<test-config-absolute-path>]

  • --use-iotester

    Create the necessary directory structure with the correct permissions required by iotester.

  • --use-rpyc

    Use RPyC (Remote Python Call) to import and call student code running in a separate process.

  • --novalidate

    Skip validation of test config.

  • --container

    This flag can be used when running graderutils inside docker container based on apluslms/grading-base to raise and print exceptions that occur in graderutils itself to stderr (normally not used).

  • --show-config

    Print test configuration into warnings.

  • --develop-mode

    Display all unhandled exceptions unformatted. Also implies --show-config. By default, exceptions related to improperly configured tests are caught and hidden behind a generic error message. This is to prevent unwanted leaking of grader test details, which might reveal e.g. parts of the model solution, if one is used

  • --exercise-path

    Change the directory where grader tests are run. Default is /exercise. Personalized programming exercises can set this to /personalized_exercise.

  Executes graderutils.main (or graderutils.__main__ when --use-rpyc flag is set) Python module using capture wrapper (check grading-base). Provided arguments, except for --use-iotester, --use-rpyc, and --exercise-path, are passed to the Python module. If there are no arguments, then the module is executed with /exercise/test_config.yaml as the first argument. In other words, if you define graderutils configuration in test_config.yaml, you only need to have graderutils in the config.yaml cmd field.

• unittest

  Alias for python3 -m unittest. Adds /exercise to PYTHONPATH.

• unittest-capture

  Wrapper around capture and unittest Python module. Adds /exercise to PYTHONPATH. Does execute err-to-out if there is no errors.

• unittest-testcase [-t title] [-p points] [-s skip] [unittest arguments]

  Wrapper around testcase and unittest Python module. Adds /exercise to PYTHONPATH. Arguments are passed to testcase and unittest arguments for the Python module. Check testcase documentation in grading-base.

• python-compile-all

  Alias for python3 -m compileall. Use it to validate Python syntax of input files before tests.

• run-all-unittests [-S] [-p points_per_test_class]

  Command to do it all. Can replace run.sh in trivial cases.

  First, script validates syntax, unless -S is provided. If syntax is not valid, no tests are run. Second, script finds all files matching *test*.py pattern from submission and exercise paths. Then, it runs every class that directly inherits unittest.TestCase using testcase and unittest. Testcase will give points_per_test_class many points per successful execution of unittest.
