[Using Sakai] Adding Rosters --

Thanks Anand.

In the old message you reference, Steven Marquard said:
“To associate a course site with a class list that your provider understands (i.e. to populate a course site with student membership from your SIS), you need to update the site's realm through the Admin tools - Sites to find the site id (if you don't already know it) and Realms to update the provider id for the respective /site/siteid realm. What you put in the provider id is dependent on how your local provider is written (e.g. we would have SUBJ101,2007).”

The Provider ID seems to be a single entry for us – ex: http://vetmed.ucdavis.edu/course/section/SPH/266/001/201103 -- since I’m trying to combine 2 cross-listed courses into a single course worksite, how would I adjust this to allow multiple providers?

Thanks!
Chris

Hi Chris,

Please take a look at http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.cms.sakai.devel/11697 for the requested status issue. The roster link is probably disabled for instructors by unchecking site.upd.site.mbrshp or some other site permission in the course site's realm. The terms come from the cm_academic_session_t table and the ones with is_current set to true are displayed in the drop-down list.

Thanks,
Anand

A couple of quick questions:

When I’m an admin, I’m able to initiate the process of adding a roster to a course worksite, but it always comes out as ‘requested’. How does this get approved?

When I’m SU’ing as the instructor of record, the ‘Add Roster(s)’ link doesn’t appear. Which permission controls this?

if I add the instructor to the admin site (just for testing), and go to the same site, the link is available and I can see a dropdown for the term and a list of the courses in that term. What controls which terms are included in the dropdown?

Thanks!
Chris

Hi,

There are some architecture documents in the source code at /reference/docs/architecture. Some are a bit dated though.
As for table naming conventions, developers are free to do what they like, however the adopted practice is that tools prefix their own tables. So the tables for Profile2 all start with PROFILE_. Site Stats all start with SST_ for example.

One thing to note is that if your app doesn't 'own' the table in your own tool/service, you shouldn't directly touch it. You should instead use the API that the app provides. This goes for the rest of the Sakai DB tables as well. Never directly modify the tables, use the API.

cheers,
Steve
