• Trigger Enrollments Creation: Initiates an asynchronous task to enroll users in a list of courses.
• Trigger Grades Assignment: Propagates grades to a specified course component.
• Create Enrollments for Program: Enroll users in a predefined list of courses constituting a Course Program.

Installation

   OPENEDX_EXTRA_PIP_REQUIREMENTS:
      - eox-hooks=={{version}}

2. Save the configuration with tutor config save.

3. Build the image and launch your platform with tutor local launch.

Usage

Before using eox-hooks, you need to set USE_EOX_HOOKS in True and configure EOX_HOOKS_DEFINITIONS in each tenant or site configuration that wants to use the plugin as follows:

USE_EOX_HOOKS: True
EOX_HOOKS_DEFINITIONS:
{
    "<trigger_event>":
    {
        "action": "<action_name>",
        "config":
        {
            "url": "https://webhook.site",
        },
        "fail_silently": False,
        "module": "<path_to_module>",
    },
}

Where:

• trigger_event: The name of the event the platform sends and eox-hooks listen, such as post_enrollment. For a detailed list, visit the trigger events examples file.
• action_name: Specify the name of the action to execute. For example: custom_action. To see the available actions in eox-hooks, visit the default hook actions file.
• config: Adds more information to the action.
• fail_silently: Defines what happens if an exception arises while executing the action. If False, then the exception is raised.
• path_to_module: Path to the module defining the action to execute. For example: eox_hooks.actions.

Example

EOX_HOOKS_DEFINITIONS:
{
    "post_register":
    {
        "action": "post_to_webhook_url",
        "config":
        {
            "fields": { "recipient_email": "user.pii.email" },
            "send_certificate_data": False,
            "url": "https://webhook.site",
        },
        "fail_silently": True,
        "module": "eox_hooks.actions",
